I asked “where?” Not “when?”
Irrelevant.
As I pointed out, the last ditch 1895 defense of "are" vs. "is" was made by the Northeastern Power Brokers, Democrat Richard Olney, Secretary of State under Democrat President Grover Cleveland.
It doesn't matter they were from Massachusetts & New York, what matters is they were Democrats and thus highly dependent on Solid Democrat South votes.
You need to wrap your mind around that, FRiend.
