Jean & Mike Do The New York Times Crossword

This was a very pleasant Friday crossword by Alina Abidi -- her fourth for the NYTimes. Like almost all Friday's, no theme was involved, but there were some Friday-worthy clues, including a mathematically-oriented debut, 24D, Unchanged when multiplied by itself, from the Latin for "same" and "power" , IDEMPOTENT; the very French 41D, Un canard ou un émeu, OISEAU (mais oui!); and the delightfully deceptive 27D, One mailing it in?, EARLYVOTER.
