I think Joey would be much closer to the right pronunciation in this case.
I’m pretty sure ancient Greek didn’t have any concept of a “Silent Pi”. That leading “p” sound is supposed to be said.
It might be really hard for a native English speaker to say those two consonants together, but that doesn’t mean Joey is wrong for trying.
The smallest reptile that we know about.
Also note that subsequent cooking doesn’t prevent food poisoning.
That will kill off the microorganisms that are the root cause, but it won’t remove the poison that they already produced.
It wasn’t being marketed and sold as a meme product. It was being marketed and sold as critical safety equipment.
On top of that, it was being sold during a pandemic when such equipment was being used continuously by large segments of the population.
It shouldn’t be surprising that large numbers of people bought it; the company selling it lied to those people to trick them into buying it.

I was in college in Texas when it happened. I don't remember anything closing.
All of my classes kept to their regular schedules.
Adding on to this; I'd be very surprised if there was a locality within the U.S. that didn't require every building to have carbon monoxide detectors, but again, voting doesn't even have to occur within a building.
In short, no.
Voting in the U.S. is run by the individual states, and each one sets their own rules and policies.
The federal government does set some minimum rules that only apply to federal elections, but those rules don't even require the use of voting booths: https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/CFR-2024-title11-vol1/pdf/CFR-2024-title11-vol1.pdf
… although, I guess any pronunciation will be wrong because the actual name was “Πτολεμαίος”, so if you wanted a correct transliteration you would have to use “Ptolemaious”
Regardless, Joey is still closer to the correct pronunciation.
