I, a lib, would definitely feel extremely owned if every Trump loyalist boycotted the Georgia runoffs. Extremely owned.

Just the pro-life party doin' some more pro-life stuff on the way out the door

Pro-life

I get a week's reprieve from the horrors of the Chicago Bears offense.

oh for fuck's sake

Here's what the U.S. Senate discussed today--its last day before taking a break for Thanksgiving--while 1,900 Americans were dying of a plague.

Maybe he's not counting the days Trump's gonna be golfing?

Yeah, each state votes in one block for God knows what reason. GOP would be guaranteed to win unless somebody had a conscience and crossed party lines (lol)

A lot of people are saying that ranked choice measure could be a pretty big deal, because it could give Murkowski more cover to cross party lines more since she wouldn't be going through a traditional primary.

This is what the 12th amendment says, So, yeah, you might be right in this case since those states wouldn't end up appointing electors, I dunno. It is true, though, that it doesn't specifically say it's only in the case of a tie. If a third party ever won, like, Alaska, and the vote finished 269-266-3 then the election would go to the House because nobody had 270.

If neither candidate gets 270 then it goes to the House no matter what, I think. That's the whole idea behind this plan, such as it is, just try and get Biden below 270.

Alright, well, there's one crisis averted. We've only got like 2 months of this to go.

Yeah, there's a statewide canvassing board that it goes to now for a vote instead, and everyone on Twitter is already like, "Well, don't worry the canvassing board will just approve it then," but... I'm done assuming anything at this point, personally. But apparently the next step after THAT is it would go the courts, so as long as judges keep telling Republicans to eat shit in these cases, they can't actually steal the state.

Apparently there was an imbalance of like 100 votes when they did an audit and the Republicans are saying that they can't certify the results based on that, but people who cover this stuff regularly say that that kind of an imbalance is typical and if everyone was acting in good faith wouldn't hold this up at all unless there was a recount.

The entire Republican party at all levels has Terminal Facebook Brain

Basically an instruction to try kidnapping the governor again

Absolute sociopaths

Yeah, I just got back from grocery shopping as well, and toilet paper is back to limit 1 per customer again.

Is Twitter just gonna stick with these "this claim about election fraud is disputed" warnings indefinitely? Once all of these states have had their results certified are they going to be merely "disputed"? What would it take to get to, "this claim about election fraud is complete horseshit"?

They're tanking to get the #1 pick in the next lawyer draft
