Notice a spike in your electricity bill? This could be why.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. โ The next time you get your electricity bill, donโt be surprised if itโs a little higher. JEA spokesperson Simone Garvey-Ewan says paying more to use electricity is expected during the time of year when temperatures drop. โWhen you adjust it by more than two degrees, your HVAC system works a lot harder and that caused more energy use and that causes a higher bill,โ Garvey-Ewan said. But she said there are also heat strips inside the heating system, which are like coils on an electric stove. So as long as they run, your electricity bill continues to rise.

Record early vote leads to tranquil Election Day at polls
About 103 million votes were cast before Election Day, an early voting push prompted by the pandemic. Every Election Day comes with problems as millions of people try to cast ballots simultaneously in 50 states. Those who did vote on Election Day included some who wanted to vote by mail but waited too long to request a ballot or didnโt receive their ballots in time. Anthony Medina, of Phoenix, who turned 18 four months ago, accompanied his cousin, who turned 18 on Election Day, to the polls Tuesday. โGiven the difficulty election officials faced with Congress not giving them enough money, with all the disinformation and political fights โ yes, I think today was an astounding success on all fronts,โ McReynolds said.
