We're going to use the same national polling data that didn't give the proper sense of how the EC went in '16?

just adjust it.  subtract about 3% from dems for the expected electoral college penalty.

What were the National polls saying this time in 2016 for spread between Hillary and Trump? The quick research I was looking at looks like 5 or 6 points for Hillary in April 2016.

People make a mistake about the 2016 election as proof pollsters got it wrong, there is some nuance about that.....
1. they got the percentage dead on right she'd win by about a couple points....just the votes were in the wrong places 2.6 million more votes for one candidate would make anyone assume that she won. So different set of standards Electoral College math vs national poll math
2. Wisconsin was close to tilting due to the the midterms before, Michigan to anyone who was paying attention noticed in the primary 2016 the GOP had more votes, Pennsylvania was a worry and hence the reason the last minute rally for her in 2016.
3. Voter Suppression and Apathy worked perfectly
4. People lied at the exit polls, even Paul Ryan received a phone call soon after the polls closed, that the GOP modeling/Turnout expectations were that Trump would go down in flames, Schumer was going to be Majority leader, the GOP would keep the house but it'd be very close....so to say hahaha they knew...they were wrong as well.
5. it is the equilivent of getting a bad beat hand is what happened you are dealt a full house in poker only for the last card to come down and give the person an straight flush (when they started with a 3 and 7)

Declassified Docs: Bin Laden Plotted To Push U.S. Into ‘Crisis’ By Making Biden President

Declassified documents that were retrieved from inside Al-Qaeda founder Osama bin Laden’s Pakistani compound in 2011 revealed that he wanted to assassinate then-President Barack Obama to make “totally unprepared” Joe Biden the next president of the United States, predicting that Biden would lead the U.S. “into a crisis.”

The documents, first reported by The Washington Post in 2012, were unearthed by Fox News Editor Gregg Re on Wednesday night.

In a letter, bin Laden wrote to a top Al-Qaeda official that he was instructing the Islamic terrorist organization to create two groups to watch for and to target U.S. aircraft visiting the region that could be carrying Obama or then-CIA Director David Petraeus.



Truth really is stranger than fiction...

Post by: sonofdaxjones on April 23, 2020, 11:45:19 AM
I disagree with that, because mega corrupt racist war monger ChiCom Joe Biden would have reacted by escalating perpetual war to at least 5 additional countries.

Albeit, in the year of our FSM 2020, we must temper ChiCom Joe's war mongering ways.  As we try and understand who will really be running the country once the addled and utterly incoherent Joe Biden wins the ballot harvested mail in election.

Jill wrote some fairly salient points for Joe to read off the Tele-prompter.

Delaying the election has both a good and bad side.   The bad:  The DNC ballot harvesting campaign doesn't have cover of the pandemic in order to justify.

The good:  It will give time for the DNC (the most corrupt political party in the developed world) to find somebody to replace ChiCom Joe.

With a High Amount of Confidence the Intel Committee and Community is saying the same thing. The Russians are going to get involved again (read, Senate Intel Committee Report, Mueller Report, basic timelines). Facts are a stubborn thing and basic math shows that around 2:30-3:30AM those #dropoutbiden, #LoveTrump kinda things get pushed which coincides (you can debate correlation or causation that is fair) around the time the Russians are fully staffed in the Internet Research Agency. The Russians did help Trump in 2016, and they'll do it again in 2020.....because they know they can...and the GOP doesn't care because it benefits them...They scream about voter fraud, which they did in NC 9 and whatever happened in GA with Kemp controlling the registrations and voter booths, but if the RNC was wholesale attacked/hacked by the Russians and spread information about the Republican Nominee while pushing to help the Democrats you'd more than likely be singing a different tune. And to quote McConnell in August 2016 "Any public attempts by the White House to counter the Russians I'll turn into an act of partisanship...you're trying to screw the GOP nominee". 



With what is literally all over the news this morning, this won’t age well at all.

Washington, DC (CNN)Former Vice President Joe Biden for the first time on Saturday said that his vice presidential vetting committee is looking at "more than a dozen women" and that there is "significantly more than one black woman" being considered.

Also, Tom Perez had a great quote comparing Biden's sexual assault allegations to "Hillary's emails"

just great stuff all around.

Total rough ridin' clown show. I'm all for the pendulum swinging the other direction for representation, we've seen the deluge of mediocre white men as vice presidents, but this is just a complete mockery. In none of these quotes are Biden or his surrogates even bothering to talk about how qualified these women are, eff he might as well pick Mariah Carey to be the VP.

I actually will feel much better about him picking Harris, Whitmer, or tiny baby Klo than I would fake progressives Abrams or Warren. Those two have sickened me the most during this whole process, just no conviction about anything at all. Before bloomie came in and distracted her, she spent months just murdering Biden.

The Perez quote was despicable, the dems are leaning way in with the hypocrisy and lack of tact.

Are the democrats more corrupt than the republicans because the republicans stopped trying to keep up appearances while the democrats are still trying to convince the public that they are different? I'm going to give the edge to the republicans because they're south racist while the dems are the types to mock the republicans for their southern racism while never having people of color over to dinner and hoping their daughter doesn't bring one home from college.

That you're acting like you or anyone else ever took her claims the least bit seriously, and this represents some turning point. Why would we care what Biden staffers have to say? The fact that her Biden story has changed, a lot, isn't new, and falsely accusing others doesn't mean that she couldn't actually be assaulted by someone else, at least that's what we've been hearing from liberals previously.

Also her claims have been scrutinized much more than those of other accusers.

I mean you could say a point would be they (reporters/interested parties) should also demonstrate through Biden that this didn't occur.

i'm not sure what "through biden" means, but the npr article did a very thorough job of demonstrating that reade's allegation is highly improbable.
Title: Re: 2020 General Election Thread
Post by: sys on May 15, 2020, 09:41:48 PM
I could be wrong, I thought there was discussion of complaints from staff could be held in some of his records for one.

biden gave permission for the senate personnel records to be released, but my somewhat fuzzy understanding is that some privacy law prevented that from happening.  i saw some people saying that if reade also consented, they could be released, but i don't know that to be accurate.

biden's senate papers were donated to the u of delaware to be made public after his retirement and he has not consented to have those papers unsealed, but people that seem to know say that there would not be any personnel records in those papers.


the discussion is somewhat moot as reade does not say that she filed a report alleging sexual assault at the time, so there would be nothing directly pertaining to her allegations that could confirm or refute her allegations in any records.

If it's your claim that this scrutiny is due to her claims being taken seriously, then the inverse has to be true. The lack of investigative vigor given to the claims from accusers of other high profile politicians is because the same media didn't take these other claims as seriously. However, they were taken seriously enough to slap the accusations directly on the accused.

For the record, I do think Reade is exaggerating. I also think that she has spent years telling people that Biden made her uncomfortable, because he did, he just didn't get anything close to putting his hand up her skirt and penetrating her. However, Biden is absolutely hiding something. There is no other explanation for him allowing his campaign to review those University of Delaware files, but won't release them publicly.

There are only two people that know what happened between Joe Biden and Tara Reade on that day. Given Biden’s current state, we may have to round that number down a bit.

The one thing we can definitely say is that Joe Biden has several other women that have accused him of sexual harassment and literal reels of videotape of him committing what would get most of us fired if not criminally charged.

If people want to go ahead and make the argument that they don’t care about it or Trump has more sexual assault accusations so on balance Biden is better, it would be a hell of a lot more honest.

the idea that the npr piece or the vox article from a week or so ago were biased against reade is pretty ridiculous (the politico piece may well have been, but the information presented still makes it hard to consider reade credible).

the notion that trying to corroborate her story or reporting the inability to do so is somehow undue or untoward is borderline insane.


people that give every indication of knowing what they're talking about say that there would not be any personnel records in biden's senate records.  the reason why he won't request they be unsealed is almost certainly the same reason he placed the condition they not be made public until his retirement in the first place - the papers include information having nothing to do with an obscure former aide that would be politically damaging.

it's important to be clear about two different classes of behavior.

there is the behavior numerous women have said biden has engaged in, that has been captured on video and that biden has admitted to doing.  there is no question that these things happened and no one, afaik, has claimed that they didn't.  it is very possible that something of that nature also happened with reade.

then there is the allegation of sexual assault/rape that has only been alleged by reade.  i'm not going to recapitulate the litany of reasons why that allegation is improbable, the articles linked earlier do that.

Once he allowed civilians working on his campaign to view those files he lost any credible claims for them to remain sealed, obviously nothing there is classified. Again, this is hypocrisy, as I can guarantee I can find a quote from him about Trump's tax returns.

i promise you i am not being deliberately obtuse nor am i ignoring your commentary.  as nearly as i can summarize your argument it is:  "i don't believe reade's accusation of rape and i don't find her to be a credible person; however it is hypocritical and unfair that her allegations were investigated so rigorously that i was able to make that determination."

i do not understand that.


re., the senate records, you're making excuses as to why there is no need for them to be publicly released. There are no excuses, he's already allowed hand picked members of the public to read those files, there should be nothing to hide.

again, i find your logic to be unfollowable.  i don't know if your assertion that he allowed some people in his campaign to go through his papers to be true, but assuming it is - you appear to be suggesting that if biden considers it advisable to allow anyone to view his papers, he should be comfortable allowing everyone to do so.

that makes no sense.  there is every reason to think that there are things in those papers that he wishes to hide.  he chose to hide them years ago when he donated the papers, he reaffirmed that choice when he left the white house and he is doing so again now.  he's trying to win the most important election of his life, if there is anything that might damage that chance in those papers, and again, it seems very likely he thinks there is, why in the world would he voluntarily choose to share it now?

knowledgeable people unconnected with his campaign have explained that his papers would not have personnel records.  reade herself has stated that she did not file a complaint of sexual assault or rape.  accordingly, there is no reason to think there is anything relevant to reade's allegations in those papers.

why, then, should he voluntarily release papers that presumably include information that he thinks might damage his electoral chances when the papers in question are not relevant to reade's accusation?

One thing I'll add that I didn't before but kk kinda did in a different context is that if her claims were taken seriously, the other claims about Biden would be mentioned in every single article that casts doubt on her claims. Neither of them are great victims.


Now for the senate files, you absolutely followed my logic perfectly. So much so in fact that I don't have to summarize it again, you nailed it.

I have two points, one I haven't made yet because I didn't realize it until I read your summation of my other posts.

If we are acknowledging there are damaging things to his candidacy in those files, how in the world can we take anyone's word that the damaging info isn't related to Reade? They are telling you, there's bad stuff in those files, maybe things disqualifying, but not about Reade, and we're just supposed to believe that without proof? That's insane.

If there are damaging things in that file, you are correct he has no obligation to make that info public, it's just that he and the party he represents has spent the last five years arguing for full transparency from a once presidential candidate, now president. That transparency they were seeking was from a private individual. The transparency they are now shielding is from a public servant from when he was an elected official. I know the democrats don't care about hypocrisy, but that's an all timer.

BTW, he did instruct his aides to check those files

One thing I'll add that I didn't before but kk kinda did in a different context is that if her claims were taken seriously, the other claims about Biden would be mentioned in every single article that casts doubt on her claims. Neither of them are great victims.

the accounts of other women were mentioned, extensively, in the npr article and the vox article.  the reason they do not feature even more prominently is; 1) because they are categorically different in nature and 2) because they are not in dispute.

regarding your other point, the idea that reade's account has been overinvestigated or that it should be underinvestigated if other women's allegations have been is nonsensical.  there is no connection between any other allegation and reade's.  there is no connection between biden's guilt or lack thereof and any other person's.


Now for the senate files, you absolutely followed my logic perfectly. So much so in fact that I don't have to summarize it again, you nailed it.

I have two points, one I haven't made yet because I didn't realize it until I read your summation of my other posts.

If there are damaging things in that file, you are correct he has no obligation to make that info public, it's just that he and the party he represents has spent the last five years arguing for full transparency from a once presidential candidate, now president. That transparency they were seeking was from a private individual. The transparency they are now shielding is from a public servant from when he was an elected official. I know the democrats don't care about hypocrisy, but that's an all timer.


i cut out a point to respond to below.  regarding the rest, i think we can put it to rest with nothing more than we disagree on the notion that a political candidate should make available whatever information requested if they are accused of anything, by anyone, regardless if it is germane to the accusation.


If we are acknowledging there are damaging things to his candidacy in those files, how in the world can we take anyone's word that the damaging info isn't related to Reade? They are telling you, there's bad stuff in those files, maybe things disqualifying, but not about Reade, and we're just supposed to believe that without proof? That's insane.

because the people are saying that the entire category of information relevant to the accusation is never included in a senator's personal papers and because the accuser herself has stated that she did not file a report that would corroborate her account.  it would be a search, in the wrong place, for something that has never been claimed to exist.

What's the neoliberalism play on this? I hadn't seen that yet.

There are two, it's the progressives fault or it's no big deal. I'll focus on the people blaming progressives because it's surreal

I knew exactly what you were talking about. No one is claiming the high ground dipshit.  Just pointing out that Joe Biden just showed exactly who he’s always been.


Joe is trying to play to the ProgressoNazi’s and guess what? His stripes haven’t changed.   It’s the worst of all worlds:  The ProgressoNazi’s and the war monger racists.

Quote
The NAACP on Friday pushed back on a claim by presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden that the civil rights organization had endorsed him “every time I’ve run” — stating that the group never endorses any political candidate.

“Yesterday, former Vice President Joe Biden made a comment about the NAACP’s endorsement,” the statement by Derrick Johnson, president and CEO of the NAACP, said. “We want to clarify that the NAACP is a non-partisan organization and does not endorse candidates for political office at any level.”

The CCP is climbing aboard the mail-in ballot campaign.

An article by John Gong from the China Global Television Network (A registered foreign agent) weighs in on the matter.

President Xi is going to get his guy one way or the other . . . Xi had no comment on the mail-in voting campaign in China, but wished his good friend, Joe Biden the best, and hoped that the Bank of China's many billions of dollars invested in the Biden's would pay off over the long term.

Yeah, I saw that, I also saw video of black people beating up elderly white people in nursing homes, or read the article of a recent murder of a white woman by two black men locally, or a recent kidnapping attempt locally by a black guy against a white woman who was thankfully saved from certain sexual assault/torture/murder by cops who saw the attempt real time.

But I'm smart enough to understand that we have way too much violence in our country, have for years and that bad people do bad things irrespective of the color of their skin.

So with that in mind for this thread, we have Joe Biden who was literally one of the leading advocates of incarceration nation which disproportionately impacted people of color.   We also have Joe Biden who was a champion of monetary/property confiscation nation by law enforcement which disproportionately targeted certain demographics of white Americans and people of color under the flimsiest of circumstantial "evidence". We have Joe Biden who has  spent 40 years in Washington, never met a war he didn't want, has been wrong about everything and for the most part has been nothing but a weight on the backs of minority populations for decades.

Huge Chinese donations to the Biden Center at Penn.

Bill Clinton-Chinese (Lippo Group)
Hillary Clinton-Russians (Uraniaum One and $240 million in Russian cash to the fake Clinton Foundation)

The main consideration, per one source involved in the internal conversations, is "Can we make sure the president has the event he's hoping for?"

Trump wants a "gathering of people like in 2016" — and a contrast with more cautious Democrats, one source says.

"He wants people there, excited, the energy and enthusiasm.
"He doesn't want people to be standing six feet apart, socially distant, not being able to celebrate with people his renomination.

This might have been effective were statue supporters a major voting bloc. But with more than 120,000 Americans dead from a pandemic, current COVID-19 rates exploding, and 40 million people having lost their jobs, it’s a little hard to imagine that the elevation of the problems of dead Confederates over those of living Americans is going to excite a great many voters. At a time when the country is experiencing not just the pandemic and the resulting economic collapse but also a genuine outpouring of anger about racial inequities, the president is not merely swimming against the tide of public opinion; he is doing so on a matter that seems like a non sequitur. And it’s hard to revive interest in yourself by spouting non sequiturs

Meanwhile Joe Biden, doing everything he can to wipe his 40 year record in Washington clean (for the election) is attempting to put a new Marxist face on his campaign by entertaining Bernie Bro ideas and platforms, along with the ideas of the Maoist-Leninist arm of the party. Even those that accuse him of being a rapist and want to dismantle our economy while funneling hundreds of thousands of dollars to their latest husband in a very unethical manner.

Unfortunately, as we're starting to peel back on who will likely actually be in charge in the West Wing.   The Marxist-Leninist-Maoist arm of the DNC may not be very happy.  It's a list that reads like a whose-who of current "consultants" (The new name for lobbyists) plugged into a veritable potpourri of mega-banks, mega-corps, tech oligarchs, defense contractors and venture capitalists.   

Who will win out?

While I agree the whole statues thing is dumb and the easily propagandized dimwits that make up the majority of both parties will either be completely enraged until they're told about the next thing to be enraged about.  Or they'll think it's great.

But that can't touch the real world hilarity of Joe attempting to crap all over the political animal he's always been in order to appease ProgNazi's now entrenched in the DNC.

It's even more hilarious now that we're starting to see who is emerging as the likely policy wonks that will actually run Joe's administration.   Again, as of now it reads like a whose-who if beltway types inextricably joined at the hip of a cross section of big business and big finance.    Everything that at least the ProgNazi wing of the DNC, supposedly hates.

Marshall has an ad talking about how Hamilton endangered people's lives by having "an illegal" work for him who went into their homes to work on their plumbing. The party really isn't salvageable at this point. They need to go down in flames.

I just received a random campaign text message with this video.  It came with a message that said "Bob Hamilton is not who he says he is.  Watch this video to see how Hamilton helped give away a Kansas job to a criminal illegal alien."

And then of course "Reply STOP to Opt Out"

The difference is, he takes his marching orders from the Democratic side ... and I stand with President Trump. So, you know, if you think about it, that pretty much tells most of the people in Alabama, all the voters, what they need to know.

Can't argue with that.

I love that this is your comeback at times for being a semi successful adult, who lost his job for a bit due to a pandemic.

It’s no epoch times but The Hill has this to say

Quote
Days before Joe Biden is set to announce his running mate, Democrats including confidants of the former vice president say the race is fluid, with different candidates gaining or losing momentum.

Three candidates - Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), former national security adviser Susan Rice and Rep. Karen Bass (D-Calif.) - are seen as the top candidates in contention.

If he picks Bass it's a sign that they are already giving up Florida, they'll almost certainly lose it be selecting a Castro sympathizer. The Floridians and the DNC freaked out on Sanders for saying that Castro had good ideas, Bass is a full on fan girl.

Whitmer was the best choice but whomever is Weekend at Bernie'sing Biden tried to pander and score cheap points and painted him in a corner. If they pick Whitmer or Warren now people will flip their crap.

my opinion on the tightening debate:  it's mostly an artifact of recent low quality polling, but the race has tightened a bit independent of that effect.  however, it's mostly the trump number going up, not the biden number going down as undecideds come off the sidelines.  as such, not very worrisome, but definitely something to keep an eye on.

Unlike dax, I will fess up to my bad. I typed that as I watched a report on a Minneapolis television station about her opponent capitalizing on a flood of outside money. I should have done the research first to see that the money was from pro Israel pacs, pro republican pacs, and private moderate dem business leaders, klo's people.

I'll admit my mistake but those three endorsements wouldn't have done a thing to discredit that establishment dems wanted her out. Those endorsements are from the speaker of the house, who endorses all dem incumbents, never mind her opponent running attack ads using Pelosi criticisms. The other two endorsements you listed are from progressive leaders in the state. The Minnesota establishment are progressives, they aren't the DNC, they aren't even called the democratic party.

The thing I appreciate about Harris and Biden, is that they're both very similiar.

Joe for example has happily helped march the United States into idiotic wars, then when public opinion gets a little dicey he'll attempt to roll with something like, "well, this isn't the war I was sold". 

Harris by early accounts comes across as being kind of tough on banks, but it looks like the Wall Street/Banking lobby is pretty  :love: :love: :love: with this pairing, and Harris has only been very superficially tough with the industry.   Lot of fluff.

In other words, the kind of candidates that Useful Idiot Nation can fully support.

It's all about the (D)

classic too clever by half dax post

Claim: Harris was thought to be tough on banks
Claim: Wall Street/Banking lobby loves this pairing (Biden/Harris)
Claim: Harris has only been very superficially tough with the industry (banking)
Claim: [Biden/Harris are] the kind of candidates that Useful Idiot Nation can fully support
Claim: It's all about the (D)

So--
Useful Idiot Nation likes candidates that claim to be tough on banks, but aren't actually.

An unpolished farmer, standing in a field without any visual identification of the state he was representing is to Kansas what the union member near the arch was to Missouri.

Former South Bend mayor Pete Buttigieg anchored Indiana’s last-place segment, apparently shot in a hall of mirrors at a carnival just outside Indianapolis. (This may be inaccurate.) Dry, weird — but a bonus point for the sheer risk the state took. It paid off in the sense that it probably made a lot of people want to stream “Logan’s Run.”

Once upon a time with Joe Biden:

For-

Jailing employers who hired illegals

A wall to keep out those "tons of drugs from corrupt Mexico" (his words)

Advocated for the "Secure Fence Act" (along with Obama and Clinton)

Against-

Issuing drivers licenses to illegals

Presidential Nominee Joe Biden:  For illegal immigrants for the past 9 to 12 months, 40 years of fighting against them.   8 years in an administration that brought forth no true long term immigration reform policies of any kind.

Nothing solves a problem like draconian crime laws which don't realistically take into account a number of social, economic and psychological factors.   It's quite clear now why Harris and Biden fit together, and I retract my previous comments about Biden not being enthused about Harris.  Those two are perfect for each other.

Oh yes, the previous administration was just loved by the military.   An administration who asked them to bomb more, but try do it on a lower budget would you guys . . .

Which is why we have worn out planes that have cost and will cost billions to overhaul and replace.

Had no problem putting parents of sick kids in jail for truancy because she had to look super tough . . . then got super woke and helped bail out hard core criminals and sex offenders.

SMDH 


Among those bailed out by the Minnesota Freedom Fund (MFF) is a suspect who shot at police, a woman accused of killing a friend, and a twice convicted sex offender, according to court records reviewed by the FOX 9 Investigators.

According to attempted murder charges, Jaleel Stallings shot at members of a SWAT Team during the riots in May. Police recovered a modified pistol that looks like an AK-47. MFF paid $75,000 in cash to get Stallings out of jail.

Darnika Floyd is charged with second degree murder, for stabbing a friend to death. MFF paid $100,000 cash for her release.

Christopher Boswell, a twice convicted rapist, is currently charged with kidnapping, assault, and sexual assault in two separate cases. MFF paid $350,00 [sic] in cash for his release.

The military has traditionally voted Republican for decades. Any polls showing the troops would vote otherwise come as a surprise.  I would say this poll is pretty significant given the sitting President is a Republican.  It would be overwhelmingly in his favor if he was even remotely competent.

The polling is of career minded military officers and even observers admit that may not reflect the views of more rank and file military members.

Translation:  This is polling of the kinds of military people that historically BidenVoter Nation has hated and never trusted nor believed a word they said.

When Obama left office his military disapproval rating in the same survey was 53%, but you're not an Obama guy, though.

I certainly agree there are a number of officers who could benefit career wise by a deployment AND who would be willing to risk their safety for that opportunity.  But the poll didn't cover only those people.  Military Times states it polled 1000 or so active duty, and for the first time in a long time they said trump is a rough ridin' dope with a huge gross fat stomach that makes everyone barf and they prefer Biden.

i'm extremely skeptical of the claim that the trump campaign has money troubles.  they had 300 million cash on hand at the end of july and they probably raised 150-200 million in august.

they did not spend 450 million in august.


they almost certainly now have less coh than the biden campaign, but that's not the same thing.

Billy K at one time was hated by BidenVoter with the power of 10 Chernobyl’s.   Now BidenVoter welcomes this NeoCon with open arms.

In that light, then, a higher-percentage play might be the NBA’s commitment to materially expanding voting access for residents of the league’s 30 cities, most of which trend poorer and blacker, and are more vulnerable to the violence players are protesting than their surrounding areas. (The Toronto Raptors are lobbying to help U.S. expats vote absentee.) As of this writing, The Associated Press reports that at least 20 teams have already announced concrete plans to set up voting centers at their arenas. Depending on the state, voters will be able to potentially vote early, register to vote or actually vote at those arenas on Election Day.

https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2020/09/06/nba-strike-2020-election-voting-lebron-trump-409211

No credit to this goes to LeBron. More importantly, opening these arenas as polling places is a half measure. There are two additional things that need to happen to make this a success. First, they need to be able to staff these sites so that there aren't thousands of people standing in line. Secondly, they need to have some mechanism to get the people they are trying to serve to these polling places. If these things don't happen this was all much ado about nothing.

Does anyone not think that Trump won't vigorously pursue every opportunity possible to contest an election he loses? It should be 100% expected based on his past behavior, right?

https://twitter.com/FiveThirtyEight/status/1305464066970988544

I think this is alarmist. It's far too dismissive of the 20th Amendment. What Republicans do and don't interpret has no real relevance, they don't have to like it for it to be so. There are lots of democrats still crying about 2000. I think the prospect of Pelosi becoming president is a strong enough deterrent for trump to not have wide ranging support in not accepting the election result.

I think the larger issues will be the insane things he'll do in transition. I think it could be bad enough that the Biden Administration will spend the better part of the first two years cleaning crap up and not really accomplishing anything beyond that which could be a strategy to hit the dems during the midterms as the party that broke their promises.

If the dems prosecute Trump, I think they will do well in the primary. The alternative option is going to be a bunch of people who refused to see evidence at his impeachment trial. If they don't prosecute him, they deserve what they get.

I think holding public officials accountable to the law they are supposed to uphold is a fundamental element of any functioning government. You aren't going to find any pieces of that larger machine without having an actual criminal trial outside of the framework of the machine. The impeachment trial was a farce.

Absolutely. I think we have to try Trump first to make it clear that William Barr and Pompeo did anything wrong, though. Then we should prosecute them.

The incredible thing is that so many Useful Idiot BidenVoters actually listen to MPOS like Chuck Schumer and actually believe that dying SCJ can name their successor and the process,  and that a president nominating a candidate for an open position on the SCOTUS is dictated by the time and place in the term of the presidency or the time and place of the election process . . . or specifically in the case of Schumer, BidenVoter allows one of their MPOS leaders to stand up on the Senate floor and imply that the granted power of nomination given to the executive branch is now somehow, illegal.

Treasury Department/Banks flagged multiple financial transactions between Biden Family Inc (during ChiCom Joe's run as VPOTUS) and entities in the Ukraine and China.

Including millions of dollars of wire transfers from Ye Jianming, founder of CEFC China Energy Company, long considered a commercial front for the Chinese People's Liberation Army.   Jianming served as a senior official in the China Association for International Friendly Contacts, also long considered a front organization for the CCP-PLA.  Involved in extensive espionage, intellectual property theft and recruitment of agents for Chinese intelligence in the United States and elsewhere.

Biden Family Inc. also played a role in assisting PLA front organizations in the acquisition of various geo-strategic assets around the globe.

Numerous transactions between Biden Family Inc and entities in China and the Ukraine tripped off SAR's (not the virus) aka Suspicious Activities Reports from banks to the Treasury Department.

The number is in dispute, but it was somewhere between $1.5 to $3B.

But the usual suspects wrote volumes of articles and always managed to inject words like "murky" and "unclear" as it relates to Biden Family Inc and China.   On top of, "while these dealings don't appear to be illegal, they do call into question the ethics . . . ".

The current president was a private citizen and business man prior to winning the presidency.   

ChiCom Joe and family orchestrated all of these business dealings while ChiCom Joe was the VPOTUS, going so far as taking his son with him on official U.S. diplomatic missions and his son meeting with Chinese (Government) business interests while ChiCom Joe was negotiating trade deals with the Chinese government just down the road.

Yet you wouldn't have the first clue, unless you actually studied the situation closely. 

The Biden's (plural) are now worth millions, KK.   So just stop.

It's a mystery to me how anyone knows anything about them. They are a very private family. I mean only 2 of them have been president and only one of them is a daytime talk show host. It's not like 3 of them have been president or something.

The average person doesn't understand the entire history of the business dealings of the Bush family.

Just like the average person doesn't understand the Kennedy's and other similar political families with any depth. 

They hear things, they see what some idiot blurts out on CNN or Fox, but they have no real clue as to the origins and the history of the families and their collective empires.

Now that you guys have attempted to turn up the deflecto shields from Biden Family Inc to 120%.

Let's try and refocus here.

Elena Baturina, widowed wife of former Moscow mayor Yuri Luzhkov wired $3.5 million dollars to Rosemont-Seneca Partners in 2014 (in DaBig Psycho mind, the world didn't even exist then). 

She transferred another $250K to Rosemont-Seneca in 2015.

These wire transfers were all flagged by Banks/Treasury as it is reported that Baturina has ties to sex trafficking and prostitution.

Biden's already locked down $3B from the BoC when he was Veep

The number is in dispute, but it was somewhere between $1.5 to $3B.

But the usual suspects wrote volumes of articles and always managed to inject words like "murky" and "unclear" as it relates to Biden Family Inc and China.   On top of, "while these dealings don't appear to be illegal, they do call into question the ethics . . . ".   

Like I always say, you guys can circle the wagons and roll out the explanations like no else in the world.

so you are claiming that Biden is worth between AT LEAST $1.5 and $3 billion now?

Here is what I don't get.  Clinton family got rich.  How could Biden have a 40 year + history of delivering for the banking, big pharma, and credit card industries and THEN have his idiot kid pull in some Ukraine/China cash and only have a few pharma click pens, some financial mugs to show for it?  Was it all for the love of the game?

Where is his cash?

he was the senator representing the state of delaware.

he famously didn't own any stock while serving as a senator.  some people love power more than money, and he presumably felt not profiting from his position enhanced his ability to retain it and advance even higher.


as a side note.  you should stop reading jacobin and the intercept.  that crap rots the brain.  you're far too cynical and it impairs your ability to perceive reality.

In other news, the United States is pushing both China and Russia into signing on to a new multi-lateral START treaty which reduces both nuclear weapons and WMD weapons delivery systems.

This of course has to absolutely  :curse: :curse: the Party of Perpetual War and their advocates for Perpetual War/Conflict.   On the flip side there's also the usual hand wringing about how the multi-lateral agreement is a bridge too far and it will start a new arms race.   Pro Tip:  We're already in a new arms race . . . so congrats once again to BidenVoter Nation for playing both sides of the fence all cus OrangeMan-Bad.

No doubt.  If Blue wins Senate and White House this election they will keep it until GOP adjusts their political ties and views on many issues.  If GOP does not adjust, it could get historically lopsided over the next 16-24 years.  The McConnells, Cruz's and Grahams of the GOP are heavy contributors in making it a reality.

Biden wins both electoral and popular

Senate 52+ for Dems

pick ups from most to least likely
Colorado
Maine
Arizona
North Carolina
Montana
Iowa
(maaaaaaaybe) South Carolina

losing Doug Jones

Republicans hold hearings and get the nominee in the lame duck session after getting rolled.

Democrats hem and haw but don't expand the court.  At best we get DC statehood.

Hmmm, are you including other policy as well? My gut says if they ditch the filibuster for DC for example then they'd have a consensus on other stuff they'd want to pass. Seems weird to just do it to add DC, healthcare and covid action sounds reasonable. Dunno if they'd go for climate action/infrastructure. Depending on your views what they could do with healthcare may be deemed too incremental or meh.

Could see them just having the majority and not doing anything or not flipping it entirely.
They will do a Covid bill and some sort of climate change legislation, but it will be like tax credits or some dumb crap that will launch a million solyndra ipo’s and TSLA stock to the moon off tax credits.  It will suck ass and change absolutely nothing.

No Medicare 4 All no GND, no UBI, just shut the eff up and be happy we aren’t trump, lose the senate in the mid terms and then gridlock.

In my opinion it needs to be slightly more difficult to vote, not everyone should be allowed to just show up with zero knowledge of our country’s governmental system. I think something like having to name the current President and VP, your state’s senators, and your current representative in the house, all factual things so there is no question if they are right or wrong. Also you need to have a valid photo Id. Thoughts?

Here's another post the same, dipshit, downgrade poster had in the same thread

This gets it backwards. Biden says he would veto a GND or Medicare 4 All so of course they don’t have 2/3rds majority.

They also aren’t going to suddenly turn Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi in to Mitch McConnel ramming through the Obamacare repeal in regards to these big new programs. Saying this is all Manchin’s fault or whatever and leftists are dumb is just an excuse. If they have 53 or 54 votes they could tell Manchin to eff off. The problem is none of the major figures want to do anything big even if they do have the votes! Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, and Chuck Schumer are not going to whip votes for Medicare 4 All or really much of anything worth a crap.

All that is on offer for now and forever is “we’re not republicans.” It will probably be enough to hold off a very unpopular president and party but they will get crushed in the midterms.

Saying this is all Manchin’s fault or whatever and leftists are dumb is just an excuse. If they have 53 or 54 votes they could tell Manchin to eff off. The problem is none of the major figures want to do anything big even if they do have the votes! Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, and Chuck Schumer are not going to whip votes for Medicare 4 All or really much of anything worth a crap.

All that is on offer for now and forever is “we’re not republicans.” It will probably be enough to hold off a very unpopular president and party but they will get crushed in the midterms.

Has Biden said he'd veto MFA or the GND explicitly, actually asking as I may have missed it. I'd be surprised if he would given the chance (but that's all head games in the same vein as supporting alot of progressive positions, even more moderate versions, this campaign cycle and not going after the filibuster - unless like waiting many years to continue to build a large enough coalition is okie dokes).  Or is your point that by not supporting/campaigning for them he's basically not allowing it to pass through Congress.

His point is that Biden, historically, and Schumer and Pelosi now don't have the courage to push transformative legislation ahead. These things are essentially nonstarters because the democratic leadership has no interest in doing anything other than not being Republicans which will get you the majority for two years every decade or so.

The green new deal claim is more of a stretch but Biden wants to keep fracking and expands the time horizon for zero emissions by 20 years from the GND and eliminates a lot of the jobs programs and other elements to get the cost down. Make of that what you will.

Democrats rammed through the ACA. And the lesson they should have learned since is that they're not passing anything else unless they ram it through.
Really worth remembering that Obama probably could’ve got the public option through but instead tried to negotiate with McConnell and the right wing Dems and got kneecap’d. They did use reconciliation, but they hardly “rammed it through.”

The problem of course is that any “big” policy agenda is going to have enormous opposition and so if the base case is that you want to build consensus first, you will basically not get much of anything done.

The ACA began with quite a few people including Obama wanting a public option, and that was basically impossible because the Obama admin decided it was very important to court Max Baucus and Chuck Grassley and take them seriously, instead of just telling their conference what was going to happen and nut cutting.

It is worth comparing what McConnell did. He threatened pulling Chuck Grassley’s seniority, his prime committee appointments, access to the Republican Senate funds all because he was NEGOTIATING with Dems. Not even that he was going to vote for the bill, just for inserting republican friendly amendments (THAT THE DEMS MOSTLY KEPT IN ANYWAYS EVEN THOUGH THEY GOT ZERO REPUBLICAN VOTES)

So to review, McConell was going to torch any republican senators entire bloodline for talking to Dems, and Dems were actively reaching out to try and get 1-2 republican votes. In the end? Not even Susan Collins or Olympia Snow came on board because intense pressure from your own party is always more effective than goodies from the other side.

if you open the link that you provide, you'll see that biden is not at all explicit about vetoing m4a.  in fact he completely dodges that question and instead responds exactly as you'd expect a candidate not campaigning on m4a in a primary against an opponent who is - by outlining the reasons why he doesn't support it and instead has a different plan.

biden's climate change plan is both very good and far more radical than anything that could conceivably pass the senate.  if they get a crippled version through with a quarter of what's in biden's plan it will be the most significant legislation of the 21st century thus far.

1.  obamacare was negotiated down to get 60 dem votes, not to get any 'pub votes.
2.  the reason the pub caucus votes together more than the dem caucus is because there are very few pub senators in blue states and not many more from purple states while there are quite a few dem senators from red and purple states.  in 2008 that was much more the case.  you can look back at that 60 senator majority and it is filled with senators from states that are now inconceivable.

the idea that you just need leadership or the president to push senators harder and you can magically get them to vote with you is just so fundamentally wrong.  even the pubs, whose leadership you laud, got essentially nothing out of unified control of the federal government.  not a single thing they campaigned on or wanted in two years of control except a tax cut that will be reversed if the dems take the senate.

Come on man! That's just a load of malarkey! If you want me to sign Medicare 4 All with a big tax increase for the middle class you should've voted for the socialist, WHO I BEAT!

but seriously how much more clear can a politician get?

“Nancy Pelosi gets a version of it through the House of Representatives. It comes to your desk. Do you veto it?” MSNBC host Lawrence O’Donnell asked Biden during an interview Monday night.

I would veto anything that delays providing the security and the certainty of health care being available now,” Biden responded. “If they got that through in by some miracle or there’s an epiphany that occurred and some miracle occurred that said, ‘OK, it’s passed,’ then you got to look at the cost.”

Biden added: “I want to know, how did they find $35 trillion? What is that doing? Is it going to significantly raise taxes on the middle class, which it will? What’s going to happen?”

It isn't going to happen because none of the leadership wants it so there is no reason to worry about it, but fine.

As to your point about "not being able to get anything done without 60 votes" The Republicans almost rammed through an insanely unpopular repeal of Obamacare in the face of huge opposition and protests with 52 votes and almost did it if not for John McCain basically deciding to vote no to piss off Trump.

So yes, GND and M4A are completely "unrealistic" because of the Dem leadership, and the average Senator's politics, and Biden. So, no it won't happen.

My question back, is how could the Republicans have been willing to expend that much political capital for their failed Obamacare repeal with no replacement and almost succeed if the Democrats couldn't, if they were similarly ideologically motivated do the same to pass a very popular M4A proposal?

Of course Iowa is a toss up, it's weird to think otherwise. Obama won in '08 by 9 percent, in '12 by 6. Michael Dukakis and Al Gore won Iowa. GWB only won his second term by 9000 votes. Three out of the four representatives (The three that have the largest cities) are democrats. The Senate race is a toss up, in which the dem has lead since she won the nomination. Any historical data, or current polling point to a toss up, trump's win was about Clinton, not him. The dem turnout was wayyy down and trump got barely more votes than Romney.

The Iowa electorate is much more Wisconsin and Minnesota, and much less Nebraska and Kansas.

Lots of commentary on 538 expect it to change it in favor of Biden slightly.

https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/trump-biden-debate-poll/

But it's all pretty minor stuff

The consensus seems to be coalescing around the idea that Biden slightly helped himself with his performance, and trump didn't do anything to appeal to anyone else but his base. It seems his strategy is to keep doubling down, which granted got him the office in 2016, but, like, running as the outsider in 2020 rings hollow. Basically, a minor win for Biden.

Yeah, Biden having a good team of people around him is his best thing. Who would really be making fiscal policy decisions? Hopefully some person super rough ridin' smart about fiscal policy! Not some old dude who watches Fox News all day and rages on twitter.

it makes no sense, but there are people that bandwagon vote.  if it is obvious to everyone that trump will lose, and the media and people generally treat it as obvious, i'd expect a couple % or so will pile on to vote for the winner.

You can absolutely reasonably question if he was getting tested daily. AFAIK that was never independently verified, and was not even on a white house press release. I only ever saw or heard that mentioned when he said something off the cuff.

the potential exposure was tuesday night, about 70 hours ago.  it's unlikely he'd test positive already even if he was infected.


i'm sure they followed tight covid protocols, so i'm saying he shouldn't have gone from a how stuff looks perspective, not a public health perspective.

i have no idea if trump was getting tested daily or not, but if you are tested daily and you become infected it is unavoidable that at some point you will one day test negative and the next day test positive so using that as a black mark against daily testing is really weird.

I might live in a bubble, but that is pretty crazy that 1) Between the last 32 combined polls for Michigan-Minnesota-Wisky-Penn exactly 1 goes for trump (Michigan +1 for trump) and the same group did another poll a week later an gave the lead back to Biden (+2)

2) That NM is not even really considered competitive

But, I guess, that guy can do what he wants. I think FWIW it's going to be obnoxiously close this election, and laughable to think it'll be like 2016 

I also don't put much stock in Biden winning NC or Florida or Ohio or Zona, but I wouldn't be surprised if he gets one of those.

We'll get a solid 4 to 5 hours a day out of Joe for the 6 months he'll be in office (give or take 1 or 2 months).

The few press conferences will be a two-fold treat.   The first being the absolutely leading softball "questions" he'll be asked, and the 2nd will be watching/listening to Joe read canned responses off a monitor on the podium.

The lack of gotcha's, and anally dissecting every decision, thought and movement will be absolutely palpable as well.   Likely a welcome multi-month vacation for the "media" and notably the end of racism on the entire planet as well.

A small respite may be had if Pubs hold the Senate and continue their ongoing and necessary investigation into the Biden's and the Chinese (and Russians/Ukrainians)

Full quote but everybody already knew

Quote
I am, ironically, more optimistic about the prospects of dealing with the problems we talked about today, as well as so many other problems we have right now, than I have ever been in my whole career. And you say, ‘Why in the hell would you say that, Biden? You just talked about all these difficulties.’ Well, I’ll tell you why. Because the American public, the blinders have been taken off. They’ve all of a sudden seen a hell of a lot clearer. They are saying: ‘Jeez, the reason I was able to stay sequestered in my home is because some Black woman was able to stack the grocery shelf, or I got a young Hispanic out there, or these dreamers out there, 60,000 of them, acting as first responders and nurses and docs.’

it's not going to be close.  it's getting close to a point where i need to think about taking off my republican hedges because biden's a risk to blow right past them.

if it's close enough that we can't figure out the winner on 11/3 from states that count quickly, then it will end up still being "close" when they finish counting.

like, maybe not we have no idea who is going to win on close, but not a blowout.


it doesn't look on track for that to happen currently, and the race has been stable to moving in biden's favor basically forever, but there are still four weeks for something to change.

Pretty certain I requested a mail-in ballot for both the primary and general elections back before the primary. They just printed a list of the candidates that will be on the ballot in our paper of record so I assume the ballots have been finalized and will come out soon.

Sure, I did that too, I guess what I mean to say is that KS doesn't allow you to vote via mail in more than 20 days prior to election day, so therefore they wouldn't mail those out until 20 days or less, so basically no one gets one until basically the 14th of October.

You can still request a mail-in ballot til like Oct 27th (?), and I would assume you'd get one early enough by then to have it post marked by the 3rd, that's just as an aside

When you get those texts, it's almost always a volunteer using their own phone with a Google voice number. It's obviously bad form for a politician or political party to spam, so they use this method.

In the interest of being a good human being, if you get these texts, either ignore them, block them, or ask them to remove you from their list. I can be 100% certain that the volunteer on the other end doesn't care who you are or aren't a fan of and it won't go beyond that person texting or calling you. Your chances of making a stranger cry is decent. Your chances of your opinion on Mike Pence or Kamala Harris getting to a person of influence in the party is literally none.

Write an old persons letter or some crap and leave regular people alone.

nah.  i mean if you got a gotv/engagement text and told your texter that you were interested in volunteering with the campaign, it would absolutely make that person's night, but the campaign is not looking for that.

texts to potential donors/volunteers are separate from texts to ordinary voters and the purpose of the texts to voters isn't to move them into the other category.

unless you sign up to get them, donate or volunteer to the campaign texting you or to some other campaign or group that shared or sold their list to the campaign texting you, you aren't going to get a donor or volunteer text.

I didn't think there was a clear winner. If I were forced to pick, I'd pick the police because I was annoyed at stonks for intentionally blowing the clock.

I will say, if you can find it, the last question and answer was as one sided of a Q & A in a debate I've ever seen, and the question wasn't even intended to do that.

The moderator asked a question from a kid about why the country was so divided and what can be done to stop it. Pence, gave a great answer, Harris droned on about how good on a man Biden is and she punctuated it by telling this kid to settle the division by going to vote and she said it twice. Cringe.

Smart people understand that governments try to influence foreign elections regularly and have for centuries.

Since putty brained Biden Voters just discovered this phenomenon 3 years ago and are still having a total meltdown about it (even though much of it was enabled by the Clinton campaign and fueled by easily propagandized BidenVoters).   

I’m very (not) surprised by the total  lack of melting down caused by:  Facebook shutting down 180 Chinese created groups who were wholly supportive of Democrats, particularly Biden.  Twitter culling 10k Chinese Bot accounts spreading virus and US election (exclusively pro Biden) disinformation.   The news that Chinese hacking farms have tried to or have hacked US politicians and election mechanisms.   Of which the politicians were heavily weighted towards Republicans.



I’m sure ChiCom Joe the K Street stooge is going to nip this in the bud once nap time is over.

Pete is a militarized talking point machine. He gives incredibly good interviews in my experience.

Yes, he's been doing this for a while too. He's also basically the face of the democrats on fox, and mushes them often

he comes on cnbc a lot too. always very good. you can't catch him with a question he can't reply with a perfectly formed talking point and 9 powerpoint slides for.

I'm super curious about whether Trump will be well enough to do a debate or town hall next week.

he already announced he is not doing it. says he will do a rally.

he did enough measurable damage to his numbers with the first one a rally is irl the smart move.

His poll numbers overall and in the battleground states immediately tanked which is what I was basing my assumption off of. I also didn’t watch though. Maybe people just decided they liked Biden more for unrelated reasons.

Only BidenVoters can bring up foreign interference in an election and then use it to overturn the outcome of the election for next 4 years (Lick Necky)

I'm kind of dumb and didn't understand that Dax affirmed yet again that foreign interference in U.S. politics has occurred for decades, even centuries and that it is a component of modern politics as we know it today (LickNeckey)

Trump has offered to debate in person on 10/22 and everyone knows that a virtual debate with ChiCom Joe's teleprompter and minders is not a real debate.

Really better hope so, it'd take a polling error twice as big as last time. He's getting his teeth kicked in the "have to win" states for him. He's got time to "fix" it, but that time is fast running out, and the polls have been so consistent for so long, it's hard to see it changing

Nine seems to be a good number. It's been that way for a long time. I think it was a bad idea when President Franklin Roosevelt tried to pack the court.

Already alot of action, but just curious Spracs where do you see your Senator's role in this (past few years and the next month or so).

That one's easy, because it's actually spelled out in the Constitution.

I meant on treating appointments to the judicial branch as political and to be done on ideological terms. Do you believe they do this and do you support it.

It says the President shall nominate, and the Senate shall provide advice and consent. If you're referring to Merrick Garland, no I do not support that obvious assfuckery.

The idea that the Supreme Court is not just naked politics is something pushed by lawyers and politics nerds to confuse the rest of the public in to taking it seriously so that politicians can exercise more unaccountable power over the public. I don’t know if spracs is dumb enough to buy it or if he is just trying to play the same game.

Yeah, I disagree. Yes, judges and justices are human beings living in society, and so they have their own faults and biases like the rest of us. The "everything is naked political power" mantra is too cynical for me, and I consider it a facile explanation that does not comport with the complexities of reality. No doubt there have been judicial appointees who were reliable arbiters for the parties that elevated them, but to a far lesser degree than the other two branches of government. And yes, we do have politicians who meddle with the courts and treat them as their own personal sandbox for promoting political agendas.

I think it is an insult to the great majority of judges, however, to paint them as mere political actors (federal judges, that is). We have only three branches of our national government, and only one was structurally designed to minimize political interference with its decisions. That was a good idea in 1791, it's a good idea now, and I will always root for and promote the independence of the judicial department. Indeed, when the political branches of government fail to act for generations, and when the collective action problem becomes so intractable that the machinery of democracy breaks down, sometimes you need the third branch of government to grease the zerks, so to speak. Lifetime appointments are the structural component that allows that to happen.

i agree with this too.  if it wasn't true, it would be relatively inconsequential that the court is going from a 5-4 conservative majority to a 6-3 majority.  but virtually everyone agrees that it will be meaningfully different.

This reminds me, can we also stop referring to FedSoc as some sort of shadowy organization? I get that non-lawyers have never heard of it, but it's a legitimate organization that has chapters at every top law school in the country. Likewise, progressives have the American Constitution Society (ACS), and they too play a role in promoting potential candidates for the federal bench.

david shor agrees with that view.  his data shows that more of the divergence has been dems becoming more liberal (also a lot of the polarization isn't really people moving left or right, just better ideological sorting by party).

You asking about party agenda or rank and file republicans and what time frame are you referring to? The party agenda has definitely slid right since it was taken over by evangelicals. The party of limited government is long gone. Republicans have adopted 2nd amendment rights as a standard bearer issue, when it wasn't that as late as the 90's. If a Republican legislator proposed something similar to the Brady Bill today, I honestly think they would be kicked out of the caucus, I'm not kidding. Sandra Day O'Connor upheld abortion rights, I don't know if Republicans would even come close to considering a justice without an abortion litmus test.

What was formally known as compassionate conservatism now has no place in the party. You have a party that now pushes Tom Cotton, Josh Hawley, Roy Blunt, and Joni Ernst to the front and has pushed Lisa Murkowski, Pat Roberts, and Mitt Romney to lesser roles. Look at people who used to be moderates like Lindsey Graham and Marco Rubio, having to shift right, on the fly, to stay relevant.

I think a combo of Barack Obama and the religious right mumped your party and next month will be your comeuppance. Same thing happened to the libs, in the late 90's, but the blood letting was much slower.

Take your party back and reopen the big tent y'all used to tout.

Honestly, abolishing the electoral college would be the best thing that could happen to the Republican party. That would make them change their platform to something that isn't blatantly evil and get votes from a demographic that isn't religious whites. The EC gives them a narrow path to victory without changing anything and I think they will continue losing relevance until it's obvious that they can't even win with that.

Is it the RABA poll? Only double digit one I see:

It's also like here in KS with Bollier being slightly ahead but KS of course will go trump. I think a lot of it is motivation and caring about down ballot (though Senator ain't exactly "down") elections.

If it's below that I'll venture to say it's a toss up. However, the GOP might have shot themselves in the foot with COVID and Election Day voting. IF the COVID virus is rising and poll workers refuse to show up (very likely as most are elderly) the almost 70/30 Trump vote would be diminished across the board. The ultimate irony would be that for once they'd have to wait in long lines and that poll places would be closed without advanced knowledge leading for them to scramble (probably give up 20% of them) on where to vote crushing GOP down ballot, possibly swinging numerous state legislatures to Democrat control (GA Senate, TX House, ending veto proof majorities) and making a 2020 redistricting year more favorable, and could give Democrats the almost clear path to the House throughout the 2020s


Why wouldn't poll workers show up?  They knew about COVID when they signed up to do it this year.

I don't know if it will make a significant difference but I know there was a lot of "activism"/talk to get younger people to sign up to be poll workers post covid and I know a few that did. At least locally it seemed like they had more than enough volunteers and people couldn't even find a spot. I don't think there will realistically be a major poll worker shortage surprise on election day, April was a lot different than now.

To repeal the old liquor-by-the-drink law that requires businesses who serve alcohol must generate 30% of sales from food.  This is the main reason micro brews don’t pop up in JOCO.  If this law is repealed, they can concentrate on selling great beer and leave the food sales to food trucks.  It is a constant threat to current breweries because they have I think 2 years to get food sales to 30%.

According to prosecutors at Archer’s trial, Archer and Biden were also connected to the Burnham Financial Group, “where his business partner Devon Archer — sat on the board of directors.” Biden was listed as the vice-president. Although Burnham was not named in any court proceedings, they were the alleged placement agent for the Wakpamni Lake Community Corporation tribal bond offerings

The Chinese were and are embedded into the Biden Family (corrupt Ukrainians and Russians as well).

Also FWIW that is about 20% of PA's 2016 vote for reference

https://electproject.github.io/Early-Vote-2020G/index.html

2 to 1 means about 140k to 70k per this article when you math it

https://wjla.com/news/nation-world/trumps-voter-registration-advantage-over-biden-may-play-out-on-election-day

So, yes, that is something, but it might not mean that much, we'll see. Article also said that increased independent #s are very anti trump. While I would also def support the idea that new pubs are very trump, I could also see some previously pubs not being so much, but, I be that # isn't that high

Yup, why pubs been fighting against all these changes tooth and nail, though it really shouldn't matter, I never understood this idea that if you have the right to vote, trying to make it as hard as possible, yes from the idea of trying to silence the other side, but realistically opening voting to all helps both sides, and gets people engaged.

We do a lot of weird crap because "it's how we've always done it". I am just glad Joco does voting the way it should, I haven't voted on election day itself since the once year I lived on the MO side in 2012.  It's just so damn easy in KS

I think there are logical arguments one could make for voting to happen on one day, like giving all running a defined schedule with which to strategize campaigns or that it reduces disincentive to vote if those voters think that it's over based on early votes and what they've heard about those results.

But that could generally be solved by eliminating the concept of "election day" and turning it into "election month."

We've basically had election month for in person voting (reduced sites tho). I could definitely go for election week, it's very nice to have some leeway on when to stroll into the polls (I've always been to lazy to fill out the forms or even look up how to get a mail in ballot). Where I live the polling site is never crazy busy, might have to wait like 5 minutes at the most in line, so it isn't like it's a hassle or time crunch normally.

I’m talking more about calendaring than physical things, and it would matter whether voting is in-person or otherwise. It needs to be accepted that voting commences on October ___, with debates having happened and most candidates having shot their load by that start date.

I like getting my ballot and the book that has all the breakdowns and gives me 3-4 weeks to get up to speed on all the down-ballot things I’ve never heard of. But we should have all the complete info by that start date and then it’s just a matter of me taking my time to fill the thing out and drop it off.

Not one person should have to wait in line for 4 hours to vote.  That is ridiculous.  Voting in person should never take more than 20 minutes.  To me that is voter suppression evidence and proves the state needs early or earlier voting, mail-in voting, or additional polling places.

Goodness Gracious: 

In summary, the Chinese government funded a business that it co-owned along with the son of a sitting
US vice president and Secretary of State who was with high probability directly or indirectly invested in
the holding company.


This document is far too deep for most on here, cross-referenced with links, pics, timelines etc.   It's a full outline of how just how deep the Biden's (and Kerry's) are/were with the Chinese.   

The Chinese Communist Party had it's hooks deep into the Oval Office of these United States of America.   

This is why multiple State Department wonks were very concerned about Biden Family Inc.   But were silenced by Obama.

BidenFamily Inc was groomed by the Chinese, and Hunter was working the Family name and VPOTUS Biden to the tune of millions.  The Chinese didn’t give an Eff about actually making money.  They wanted the access to the very top of our country. 

Then the Ukraine.  Joe’s the point man while Hunter draws millions from a corrupt Ukrainian company.

Joe-Hunter-Jim and the Kerry’s.  Quite an operation. 

Nothing to see here (BidenVoter).

In my Dallas suburb I can tell you that I see half as many Trump signs in yards as I did four years ago.  There are more Trump signs than Biden signs by double but I also know several people who do not wan the attention of Trump supporters by putting a sign in their yard. I have a Biden/Harris sign and I also have a Dump Trump flag that I put on the back of my golf cart.  My wife won't ride on the cart with the flag and she made me install cameras before putting up the Biden sign.

Per 538, that would be accurate, Florida is still leaning towards Biden, but much closer to trump compared Penn, Wisky, and Michigan.

FWIW, I will be super shocked if Biden wins TX, more shocked than 2016 ever was. I also think Biden has a chance though. It will however not be super far in the future the dems win TX though. Houston, DFW, Austin, San Antonio, El Paso, etc are all shading pretty blue.

yeah, NE has 3 and he will win 2 and lose 1 (NE-2, Omaha). ME (2 votes) and NE are elite in that we split our electoral votes. obama won NE-02 in 2008 and it is the only time since the 60s a dem pres has won anything out of NE. there are unlikely scenarios where that 1 vote is the decider and he's apparently making a late run at it.

This also took place a mile away, as the crow flies, from Cedar Rapids, Iowa and it's 70,000 citizens. There are at least 100,000 Iowa voters (although largely devoted republican) 90 minutes or less away from that rally. I'd bet half of the olds who were left out in the cold were Iowans.

a positive for those old MAGAs stuck at the airport for the rally is that they could stop to warm up at the Spearmint Rhino on their walk back to their cars.

Yeah, the ones who didn't have to go to the hospital could do that, anyway.

Georgia being a toss up is no surprise. The Republicans haven't been able to get more than 50% in recent statewide elections, even with widespread voter disenfranchisement. Brian Kemp stealing the 2018 election finally motivated the dems to do things to mitigate roll purges and poll sites in urban areas out of ratio with the rest of the state.

Yes, it will have an impact. So all four places mentioned in that article, Council Bluffs, Fort Dodge, Linn County, and Waterloo (Blackhawk County) are places that lean blue. The biggest hit will be in Linn County, it's the second most populous county in the state and he got trounced there in '16. Those other three places are small enough that they will be offset by what's probably going to be a lower turnout rurally, where like everywhere else in the plains and midwest, are filled with older people less likely to mail in ballots and are getting hammered by this pandemic.

His issue in Iowa will be in the Des Moines suburbs, which are growing very fast and the demographics are changing. Unlike in the rust belt states, I don't think he turned a lot of Obama voters, a lot of those went third party, which there were three very strong third party candidates four years ago, not so much this year. The third party vote in '16 was 8% in '12 it's less than 2%. The libertarians, independent candidate, and the greens all ran ads here in '16, none this year, I can't even find polling data for the third parties this year which leads me to believe that percentage will be back to 2% or less.

Another giant advantage he had in '16 that will be eliminated will be the turnout. The Republican turnout in '16 was higher than it had been in generations, it was 20% higher than it was in '12. However, democratic and independent turnout was way down, I believe it was 5 percent for the dems and 7 percent for independents.

Final thing to note is that polling in Iowa has historically been very accurate, including in '16. Trump did over perform his polling but only slightly. The polling numbers have been consistent here, the only reason why the nerds are calling this state a toss up is because if the polling is right, it will indicate a 15 point flip which for what they do seems almost improbable, but this isn't Georgia or Texas, it's a purpleish to light blue state. Biden will win by 5 points, book it.

No, I don't think so. As of last week the Secretary of State expected to get 750,000 to 800,000 ballots early that will account for 50% of the total vote. As I outlined in the long post, those areas discussed in the article, especially Cedar Rapids, are reliably democratic.

Re: Iowa and late rallies — is there any evidence that late in person rallies help drive turnout for a candidate? Ads I understand, casual Jack sees the ads during the CyHawk showdown or battle or whatever, and decides he is actually going to vote.

I assume that the number of people attending a Trump (or Biden) rally at the end of October who are undecided or maybe not voting is close to zero. Am I wrong?

One other funny thing about this election is that because of Drumpf’s Electoral College advantage, there is not much middle ground between a Biden landslide and an extremely competitive, down-to-the-wire photo finish.

If Drumpf beats his polls by 2 points, that’s a toss-up. If Biden beats his polls by 2 points, then it’s Obama 2008, which people consider a landslide. So the Electoral College edge makes a big difference and is why there’s been this very bifurcated, binary kind of world where we seem to oscillate between, “oh, my gosh, 2016 again” and “Drumpf is Herbert Hoover.”

https://www.vox.com/21538214/nate-silver-538-2020-forecast-2016-trump-biden-election-podcast

Honestly, it's fairly true. In the EV thread I know Chings said he had a hard time seeing Biden getting 300+, IMO though I have a hard time seeing trump getting 300+, he may very well win, but if he does it'll be close, conversely that state (PA) could flip to Biden and it also be a photo finish.

However, if things are truly in Biden's camp, it could swing it's way all the way to Tejas.

SteveDave the BidenVoter, your movement is attempting to scare people into not voting for Trump by openly advertising their intent to destroy Washington DC until Trump leaves.

Yet you keep talking about how Trump is going to “steal” the election. 

Dem local and state politicians keep conjuring new and unusual voting methodologies which lower the threshold of accountability substantially.   Then have a total meltdown if it’s even questioned. 

Even more hilarious is knowing the Lincoln Project and their related minions are literally gaming challenging a Trump electoral college win at every possible turn.   Which in turn will seek to  nullify the process, the results and people’s vote.

But you keep taking about Trump stealing the election. 

LOL hilarious.

I’m going to register to vote and vote this afternoon!
Saw the lines around the block at the 2 nearest polling places on Friday afternoon and booed out. Showed up at 8:30 AM Saturday  (9am open) and was like 25th in line. Took about 10 minutes to get through registering, and done voting by 9:35, so not bad.

PA counties can't even answer the most basic questions regarding how their ballots are handled, who secures them for transport and where they are stored.

Because the answer is . . .it's just a bunch a CGAF smoes handling them just like every other year.  Tossing them in the backs of vans and probably forgetting where they put a bunch of them.

(One example) was the City of Wilmington, DE paid for the $100K they spent on police overtime for the DNC virtual convention?   Last I saw they were in "negotiations" with the DNC regarding that bill.

Big thanks to Duke Energy for bailing out CLT after the 2012 DNC convention.   To the tune of $10 million.

On top of that, we've had this discussion.  I posted articles on how Trump wasn't reimbursing cities for costs related to his rallies and you replied he should also pay his bills.  Now you're focusing 100% on Dem's not paying bills and giving Trump a pass while making up complete lies about the industry's perception.

I work right next to an entire group who sells into the hospitality industry all day, every day.   There's an entire regimen of articles about the wariness of taking on a DNC convention because of Charlotte in 2012.   I'm not all disputing that Trump has bills, it took Hillary years to supposedly pay off her bills from her first run (probably with either Ukrainian or Russian cash, if not both).

In typical BidenVoter fashion you're focusing on some busses (because the crowds were so large) while the DNC candidacy ranks are filled with story after story regarding unpaid bills (not to mention the DNC going years without paying their DC taxes). 

Oh, and of course the greater hospitality sector is going to covet something like a large DNC presence, but a bar or hotel isn't paying for the police force overtime or the vendors at the convention itself.   In which the DNC has left cities and their convention bureau's holding the bag to the tune of tens of millions of dollars.

Regardless, your statement about the hospitality industry calling it the "Deadbeat DNC" is completely ignored by you as it is completely fabricated.  Unsurprising as most industries don't throw around stupid rough ridin' nicknames because, unlike Republicans, they realize it's childish and unprofessional.

Pfft, you are living in some kind of business bubble world if you don't think industry insiders in every line of business known to human kind don't come up with nicknames for certain kinds of customers.  Good grief.

I didn't just post articles about not paying for security.  I also posted articles about a DNC that left an American city holding a $12 million dollar unpaid bill, that ultimately a corporation helped pay based on the belief that it was a loan, only to see the DNC not pay the loan and the corporation having to write their loan for $10 million off.   Next thing you know you'll tell me convention and visitors bureaus are not in the hospitality industry.

Real businesses don't use insults as commonplace to refer to a customer.  It's really rough ridin' dumb. 

I guess I wouldn't be surprised if your business refers to customers in insulting terms so much it is considered commonplace.  It also probably explains your Trump support in spite of the busses as you see no problem with someone showing disdain for the very people that support them.

Um-hmm, when customers don't pay their bills to the tune of hundreds of thousands to million upon millions of dollars, they get called all kinds of names.  In the case of the DNC, we are talking about millions upon millions of dollars in unpaid bills over the last ten years. 

Now you're going to tell me that your receivables/collections entities have all kinds of friendly and cheery nicknames for customers who don't pay their bills.

It's good to know that you feel like you speak for the entirety of the hospitality industry.   You also appear to be utterly incapable of differentiating between how companies view and treat good paying customers as opposed to how they think and feel about customers who don't pay their bills.   Particularly customers who don't pay their bills to the tune of high six and seven figures. 

I'm sure Arne Sorenson or Chris Nassetta wouldn't have the first ill thought towards a customer who stiffed their respective corporations on a $12 million dollar bill.

It's fun see Phil come in here and once again make an idiotic post in regards to something that I neither implied nor said, in this case I've not implied nor said I'm an expert on the hospitality industry.    It's also fun to read people claim that just because they work in a particular industry they know the entire mindset of every person and company within that industry.   It would be like me claiming to know every thought, word and utterance of every person and company of import in the telecom industry.   Impossible.   

Relative to the mindset of the convention, tourist and visitors segment of local and state governments, be it either in a direct role within the general governmental structure and/or as a quasi governmental entity or separate oversight body or commission.   I actually know quite a bit.

Sure I would know something was commonplace, but I wouldn't even pretend to know what the mindset of every company or individual was towards customers . . . check that, I know exactly  how the industry would react to those who don't pay their bills.   Credit holds, denial of service, demand for deposits etc. etc.  In other words, a deadbeat list.

I don't usually like to respond to the boards resident race baiting POS who knows deep in his dumbass little heart he's voting for a mega corrupt white racist war monger who spent the majority of his career sending POC off to needless wars to die, killing millions of POC in those needless wars, refugee'ing millions of other POC in those needless wars and needlessly incarcerating POC  by the hundreds of thousands in this country.

While deporting millions of other people of color from this country. 

The other total sell out disingenuous pile of garbage on that ticket put POC parents in jail for truancy.  Truant because the kid was in the hospital.   While she smiled, glad handed and goof'ed it up with law enforcement and border patrol.   Only to sell them all down the river for the sake of political expediency and being fake woke.   She stood on stage and called her running mate a sexual predator but then she couldn't wait to accept that nomination from said sexual predator.   A total sell out to everything in every sense of the term.

But I digress.

When all of those policies have been reversed, except, and rightfully so, the voter ID law. 

A state ID card is good for a lifetime for anyone over the age of 62, so the elderly and interned excuse doesn't apply at all.   That state was also involved in a massive campaign to educate people on how to get an ID card over the last few years.   But I know in white liberal world, where you consider all POC as simpletons and in in constant need of having white liberals  tell them what to do, that doesn't matter.

Of course a hedge since he didn't think Joe had any shot then.  Imagine having to build in excuses because you end up voting for a reality TV star that pays off porn stars then stands in front of a church holding up a bible and you buy it.

I show this to illustrate that trump has to win New Hampshire, a state where he's down 10%, to even get a tie. When we see early that he's lost New Hampshire, what is his conceivable path? Flip Colorado or New Mexico?

I honestly think the people giving him an 11/100 chance to win this are way too optimistic about what his chances actually are. I keep circling back to "well, technically Biden still has to win all of the states he's favored in," but that doesn't seem nearly as difficult as what Trump is facing. Ignoring that Biden is actually leading the polls in Florida, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Georgia, and Arizona, let's just say they are 50/50. That would make the odds of Trump winning all of Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Texas, and Arizona about 1.6%.

I don't think the people voting for him care that we haven't gone to war. Most of his supporters are voting for him based upon some combination of abortion, racism, lack of belief in cheaper, cleaner energy, tax cuts, appreciation of shitty health care, and crippling fear of people who live in blue states, not unlike how the people in Kazakhstan think of Jews in Borat.

There is nothing absolutely more fascinating to me than to listen to Biden Voter, and the Biden Voter meltdown over the last 4 years and knowing these people are voting for Joe Biden.

A 40 year DC mega corrupt creep.   Who has played a huge role in sending thousands upon thousands of our sons and daughters off to die in needless wars.   Who has played a huge role in destroying multiple nations, a list that includes the following countries:  Iraq, Libya, Syria and Yemen. 

That has cost the lives of hundreds of thousands of people, and displaced an estimated 4 to 6 million people across the Middle East.

Biden was in an administration that that either started or expanded multiple wars that still rage today, as much as a decade later. 

He was in an administration that had a disgraceful record of seeking peace in the Middle East and elsewhere.   

He was in an administration that attempted to install the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, and tried to overthrow the government of Turkey (and will likely try again).

Joe was part of an administration that lied repeatedly about spying on the American people.   They spied on our allies, they spied on Congress and they spied on journalists.   

Joe was part of administration that was dunked on repeatedly by China and Russia while the same administration dumped cash on the Tarmac in Tehran. 

ChiCom Joe championed incarceration nation, that has specifically targeted young men of color and ballooned our nations prison population.

ChiCom Joe was part of the original kids in cages administration that laid the entirety of the ground work for current immigration policy.   

ChiCom Joe was part of an administration that deported millions of people. 

ChiCom Joe was part of an administration where the DHS Secretary and the POTUS stood at the border and in so many words told migrants, tough crap, the road ends right here for you.      \

Biden Family Inc. is as corrupt as the day is long, and they are groomed and wholly owned by the Chinese government.

I voted against Joe Biden for what he has done and who and what he is.

That is a mega corrupt white racist war monger who is either in whole or in part responsible for killing hundreds of thousands of people and displacing millions while being responsible for incarcerating hundreds of thousands of people in the U.S. While helping to create incarceration nation.    A guy who in 40 years really didn't do jack crap for POC and minorities in this country, but of course, expected their vote none-the-less. 

I'm looking forward to dissecting the people who will be in his administration.   Because if the speculation of who those cogs are going to be are correct.   It's will be a whose-who and what's-what of literally everything LibDerps supposedly hated, but now sadly love, at least from a foreign policy perspective.   It's also likely going to be loaded with nearly every element of the K-Street apparatia that Joe has fed off of for 40 years.

You legit said you'd vote for Biden earlier this year over Trump.  All these things just came to light huh?

Way earlier this year and before he was the presumptive front runner.   Weird how things change when you become the front runner.

It's good to know you aren't capable of changing your mind.  Expected from a monolithic hyper-partisan.

So to be clear, all this and the novel above just came about when he became the front runner?   Dax I'm sorry for you personally that you've got mixed up in this Trump thing but damn it's going to be funny.

That is a mega corrupt white racist war monger who is either in whole or in part responsible for killing hundreds of thousands of people and displacing millions while being responsible for incarcerating hundreds of thousands of people in the U.S. While helping to create incarceration nation.    A guy who in 40 years really didn't do jack crap for POC and minorities in this country, but of course, expected their vote none-the-less.

It's pretty sad that you think your support of a guy with such a deplorable track record towards the human race over the last 40 years getting elected president is funny.

I trust your opinion and you said you were voting for him.

Voted for Doug Jones (D) and multiple (D) for State BOE seats, as well as multiple (D) Judges.

Dax (non hyper-partisan non straight line voter)

Also glad to say, that unlike what white liberals think, many many people of color were able to fend for themselves and had a state approved ID at the ready at the ballot check-in table.   Fantastic first world system in place in AL, extremely efficient.   ID scanner, screen pop, electronic sig, fill out your ballot, run through the scanner, done.

I forgot to mention that I didn't need anything to correct my address when I voted.

I think I could have done the same thing and voted for my city races anywhere in the county

Very similar tbh. Felt we'd eventually get exposed offensively, and WVU was as likely candidate as any. Also pretty positive Biden is gonna walk away with this thing, and feel that's probably a good thing.

More anxious than when? I'm real high on that privilege continuum. Definitely more nervous over the election than a football game, but I don't view the election results as life altering, as some people do. ICE isn't knocking on my door and flying me to some strange country if trump wins again.

Well, yeah, more anxious than the football game that was the comparison. I’ve had very few times when I needed to be anxious because something bad might happen to me.  I’m very anxious on the scale of my anxiety, which is super low when generalized to society at large.

Biden still may win this election, maybe even likely, but that party desperately needs a rebuild. They can start by ousting Nancy, let's see if now they will actually get courage from the wizard.

With basically just Detroit, the suburbs of it, and mail ins, I think MI is pretty much Bidens now. WI is closer but the mail ins are also pretty much what is left, so I think Biden hangs on.

We probably won't know today unless GA goes to Biden, which is going to be pretty damn close not matter who wins. PA only mail ins now pretty much too, but that's a large gap, we'll see as those come in. Winning 75% of that isn't unreasonable given how much Biden has won early voting/mail in in general.

Nevada also probably Biden's since only mail ins left, but damn them for not giving us results til Thursday.

:th_twocents: if peeps sat this out cuss Biden wasn't transformative/liberal enough they are at the margins rn and can't be expected to create some demographic advantage.

People did sit this out because Biden isn't transformative enough. Trump won Miami-Dade because he turns out the vote, he energizes his people. He doesn't appeal to a majority of Americans, not even close. What he does do is that he excites and energizes people who identify with him. MAGA doesn't account for all of his voters, but you can bet your ass no MAGAs sat home. The only time democrats attempted what even looked like a different direction they ran away with the presidency and won down ballot as well.

They are going to win this presidency, but I'm afraid they won't learn a damn thing from it, today may as well be the day after election day in 2012.

I wouldn't go that far, but I agree with the 538 assessment that it doesn't hurt them (real or perceived) as much as they think or try as hard as they do. I mean, if it was pop vote Biden wins this probably 6 mil+. Maybe 7. But in the states, it's definitely triaged.

There are more registered democrats nationally than republicans, usually around 50% to 45% republicans, it's been that way forever. Republicans have always and forever been better with turning out their fraction of vote, with the exception of 2008. 85% of 45% of the country is more than 75% of 50% of the country, this is exacerbated by the fact that the electoral college weighs those 45% heavier.

this would be a more convincing argument if pretty much every single democrat on a ballot with biden except steve bullock and roy cooper didn't do worse than him.

His inability to pull down ballot candidates up speak to his popularity with independents and moderate republicans, actually trump's unpopularity. If liberals turned out those down ballot candidates would do better. Looks like there were enough people who picked D at the top of the ticket but either abstained or voted R the rest of the way down to pull Biden up without helping anyone else.

I'm still certain that there is a reasonable percentage of people not voting Biden and by extension D because they represent the same old way things have been done. A $15 minimum wage measure passed in Florida while Biden got his ass handed to him. To me this says that the dems aren't reaching the people they could be reaching because their message is stale. There's no way those people who voted for a $15 minimum wage should have been voting for Trump, that's a massive failure.

More liberal for sure, or just more ambitious. Biden didn't run on anything that represents something new. What's interesting is that Biden and damn near all down ballot candidates were painted as radical liberals by the republicans, even though we all knew they weren't that. I think that resonated with the white rural voters that turned out at amazing levels for the republicans. However, the dems game plan, specifically Biden was not radical or anything pointing to any change whatsoever. There was no platform they spoke to that represented anything different for Americans. "We'll get your obamacare back!" seemingly completely unaware how unpopular it was.

Yeah this has definitely confirmed for me that I’m not a Democrat. Seems like a large part of that party is only excited about sweeping change rather than “let’s not eff up the country together” which was really my #1 priority this cycle.

This is horse crap. Did you not see those Fox News polls? Democrats, like most people want government health care, stricter gun laws, s path to citizenship for immigrants, protection for women's health, environmental reforms, and racial and police reforms. These are not radical ideals, if you don't want these things, that's fine, you don't have to, but stop acting like liberals aren't interested in healing the country.

You're a moderate republican and that's fine, we don't all have to be happy sitting on our hands. Most Americans have a vested interest in not continuing the status quo.

I really don't get what your complaint is here. Is there anything the least bit controversial about the opinion Joe Biden isn't exactly the most inspirational and exciting choice that could have been made for liberals? Trump didn't run on a moderate platform, he ran on a staunchly conservative one and that energized his party. You didn't vote for him because he's a despicable human being, not because you are averse to conservatives. Liberals want to be excited for a liberal, mind blown.

From my rough estimate, Biden needs about 2/3 of the outstanding ballots to flip GA, PA or NC.  If they're absentee/mail-in or mostly from the population centers, it's pretty doable.  Of course, per mocat's map, he doesn't necessarily have to.

That’s basically what he threatened. I personally do not understand what the complaint would be assuming the votes are being counted as provided under each state’s laws. The federal government really has no say. The states can divvy their electoral votes however they want.

But Trump's lawyers are going to take the PA SC's insertion into PA's election process all the way to the SC if need be.

Particularly when it came to the allowance of illegible signatures and illegible postmarks as being good.

You'll probably still get your old white mega racist corrupt war monger and killer of hundreds of thousands of brown people elected, but this is far from over according to what I'm hearing and seeing.

I feel like Biden was sort of a concession to lots of non-MAGA pubs. Like, "here, we'll nominate a guy you can stomach voting for, so just go ahead and vote for him." And then, in the end, all but a handful of non-MAGA pubs were like, "nah, that's okay, we still want Trump!"

When your party and the political slugs that support Joe and oppose Trump are literally war gaming overthrowing a Trump electoral college victory.

Only an extreme simpleton buys the narrative that these are just a bunch of law firm interns being sent out into the field to check for hanging chads.

This is clearly way over your head  :frown: :frown:


First of all, there's nothing factually incorrect about what I said, so I don't even have the first clue as to why you even brought it up.

Also note, no where did I say that Trump wasn't going to challenge anything.

Good grief, you're an intensely anal and confused human being.



I just thought it was funny at how Dem lawyers are trying to steal an election while Republican lawyers are staunch defenders of democracy.

Yes but I think he was aided by the other moderates dropping to prevent Bernie from winning in a more crowded field.  I think Dem leadership wanted a more moderate candidate, saw what happened to the crowded Republican primaries with Trump, and had a drop-dead date for the moderate candidates to get in line.  I don't have a problem with any of it or think it's unfair, but do think it was a coordinated effort by leadership

Georgia is going to come down to Chatham, Dougherty, DeKalb, Richmond, and Clayton counties. I don't see Biden overcoming the 78k he needs to carry the state. He might get really close though (< 5k votes).
Same thing with NC, I don't see enough coming from Mecklenburg, Cumberland, Forsyth, and Orange counties to make up the 77k that Joe needs there.

According to exit polls, he also did better among a number of different minority groups.  People vote for a person for different reasons and in spite of different things.

Clearly, not everyone shares the belief that he is a fascist, racist despot.    I'm not saying he isn't that, but it would be weird for him to have done better (according to exit polls) among different minority groups if everyone shared the belief that he was a fascist racist.

It should have been so obvious for Dems to turn out just to get an immediate threat out of the WH. But sure griping about not having a social platform they could get excited about seems fun too.

keep in mind that while mir, who is not a democrat, is saying that people didn't turn out because they weren't excited by biden, the facts of the matter are that turnout % will very likely be the highest in over 100 years, and we can probably deduce from biden winning the popular vote that more of them turned out to vote for biden than to vote for trump.

Congrats to Wisc for getting just under a 90% voter turnout.   Up 22% from the  2016 election.   Right at, oh, 5.5 standard deviations from the historical mean. 

They were extremely motivated in WI, so much so, in some wards, turnout was well above 100% of registered voters.

Plz show your work

Lazy AF, SMDH

It should have been so obvious for Dems to turn out just to get an immediate threat out of the WH. But sure griping about not having a social platform they could get excited about seems fun too.

keep in mind that while mir, who is not a democrat, is saying that people didn't turn out because they weren't excited by biden, the facts of the matter are that turnout % will very likely be the highest in over 100 years, and we can probably deduce from biden winning the popular vote that more of them turned out to vote for biden than to vote for trump.

GTFO, voting trump out of office does not equate to being excited to vote for Biden. He ran a campaign of no substance at all. Did ultimate difference between now and 4 years ago is that he got people who didn't want a shrill woman and he got just enough moderate pubs who are tired of trump's crap. Of all the moderate dems who ran for president Biden was far and away the worst choice, whose name is not Amy.

Texas, Florida, and possibly Georgia and North Carolina represent missed opportunities for dems, they won't see it that way though.

I mean I literally addressed that with the rest of that post. Attempting to win national and statewide elections without motivating and exciting parts of your base is a fools errand.

Moderate democrats are going to show up for a democratic presidential candidate who fights for the things like a $12 federal minimum wage, a path to citizenship, and a government health care option. The dems have now allowed the republicans to move their party in which these things are viewed as progressive.

Unfortunately, you'll find out in '22 and '24 when republicans continue to pump out conservatives to beat moderate dems, because the dems are more afraid of scaring white moderates than they are in energizing and expanding their base. Kamala won't get to run against trump, she'll actually need to stand for something.

Pretty obvious, but I won't accuse sys of being insincere, I guess he's just really myopic.

Can't wait do to this all over again in 4 years when dems are selling Kamala by illustrating that she isn't Sarah Sanders, meanwhile Sanders is flying across the country selling border security, lower taxes, and law and order. Then dem pundits will be like "OMG WHY IS EVERYONE SO RACIST." While poor and underrepresented democrats are sitting at home, still left out of the entire process.

I think this is the type of zeal that could one day lead to a strong progressive reliable voting coalition that pulls out Ws.

I know I'm losing my crap here but I'm frustrated because we keep doing the same crap over and over again and the democrats keep making excuses instead of fixing their party. Trump made gains with black men and hispanics because they are being completely left behind by democrats. Now I know trump and the republicans aren't actually interested in helping anyone out, the rhetoric is just for votes, but at this point a lot of people are in the place where they are saying, well, at least he's talking to us. Black men are leaving because democrats aren't giving them a reason to stay. Once republicans figure out the patriarchy thing, which I do think there is some movement there, dems will start to lose black women too. We've been warned about this for several cycles, this isn't new crap.

What frustrates me the most is that this isn't only a thing for black men and latin x, there is a large segment of poor and middle class white people out there voting trump who can be had if we gave people health care and a higher minimum wage. The democrats are rough ridin' cowards being led by people who are primarily interested in holding on to some modicum of the status quo. People were still voting yesterday when Nancy announced she's going to make deals with the pubs. I'm frustrated and tired of the dumb bullshit.

only if you make the (rather odd) assumptions that 1) few anti-trump conservatives and moderates would change their vote or decline to vote for a candidate more at odds with them ideologically, and 2) many progressive voters are not also anti-trump.


fundamentally, i think the diagnosis that the race was closer than expected because a candidate that garnered the most votes in the country's history in an election with the highest turnout % in over a century because that candidate didn't turn out voters is probably off the mark.

Trump's lead is 40k and there are still ~168k ballots to be counted between Fulton, DeKalb, Clayton, Richmond, Bibb, Muscogee, Dougherty, and Chatham counties. All those are blue with Joe getting ~69-70% of the vote. Conservatively, that points to Joe picking up an additional 64k votes.

So, I wouldn't be shocked to see GA turn blue.

I mean if they seige the facility and burn it to the ground Biden wins.

But from my small amount of research Trump would have to win 59-41(%) of the remaining votes and alot of them come from Democrat leaning counties.

But until it's counted, hard to tell, but i assume it'll be close.

NO! YOUR BIASED INTERPRETATION OF THE DATA IS WRONG, NOT MY BIASED INTERPRETATION OF THE DATA

i don't believe i've offered an interpretation (other than a critique of yours).

are you asking me to believe that if bernie sanders had won the nomination and defeated trump with the highest turnout in a century you would look at that result and say "well eff, i really thought voters would turn out to support a clear-voiced candidate offering bold progressive solutions.  guess i was wrong."

I mean you have offered an opinion on it, you've argued against every point I've made.

I actually have never said a word about Bernie, I'm not willing to say with any conviction that he would have beaten trump. I'm pretty sure he could have, I think almost anybody could have but I'm not certain.

Anyway bringing up Bernie here is precisely my point. Democrats need to stop thinking that if we don't get someone who is an extension of Obama/Bush/Clinton then the alternative has to be Bernie Sanders. There is a wide gulf between do nothing and doing the most. Like I said in the President Biden thread, I'll hold out hope that he'll try to do something other than keeping the line moving, but his work will need to start on capitol hill.

Dude you aren’t even a democrat and you’re here losing your mind that the entire democratic party isn’t allowing itself to be co-opted by a small percentage of people like yourself.

You don't know how to rough ridin' read, stop quoting me, dude.

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/04/opinion/election-2020-exit-polls.html#click=https://t.co/zxEICoIszb

Quote
A larger percentage of every racial minority voted for Trump this year than in 2016. Among Blacks and Hispanics, this percentage grew among both men and women, although men were more likely to vote for Trump than women.

Quote
The fascinating story and movement are in the Black vote. Black people vote overwhelmingly for Democratic candidates. Black women vote more reliably Democratic than Black men — only 3 or 4 percent of Black women voted for the Republican candidate in 2008, 2012 and 2016. However, Donald Trump doubled that number this year, winning 8 percent of Black women’s votes.

Black men on the other hand have been inching away from the Democrats in recent elections, and continued that drift in this election. In 2008, 5 percent of Black men voted for John McCain; in 2012, 11 percent voted for Mitt Romney; in 2016, 13 percent voted for Trump; and, this year 18 percent voted for Trump.

These men were specifically targeted by the Trump campaign, and that targeting may well have worked. Democrats are going to have to pour some energy into specifics listening to and understanding these Black men. They are still the least likely group of men to vote Republican, but this trend away from Democrats is undeniable at this point.

Who cares about all that when there's so many kim carnes' out there.

Quote
Not only did a majority of white men vote for Trump, so did a majority of white women. In 2016, exit polls also showed that a majority of white women had done so, but later an analysis of validated voters by the Pew Research Center found that a plurality of white women voted for Trump, not a majority.

In any case, white women vote for Trump at higher rates than all other women, despite the fact that Trump has spent his first term, indeed his whole life, denigrating women.

Quote
This one pushed me back on my heels: the percentage of L.G.B.T. people voting for Trump doubled from 2016, moving from 14 percent to 28 percent. In Georgia the number was 33 percent.

Keep shrinking that base, I'm sure The Lincoln Project will always be there to bail the dems out.

This is probably easier to calculate than you think (if you make the assumption each representative won by each party equals the prez vote in a district as well, which is fairly true, just not always):

House of Reps Seats won by a party + 2*States won by that party.

So at last count I see for examples dems won 208 seats in the house (still not done there) and 22 states + DC

Meaning 208 + 2*23 = .... 254. Right more or less where we are
Title: Re: 2020 General Election Thread
Post by: cfbandyman on November 05, 2020, 06:40:31 AM
Biggest caveat being in that case, (most) likely Biden wins no matter what in the sense that they are expected to hold the house, and would only need to win 16 seats for that. They currently hold 232 (though looks like they might lose a few) but winning 20 more doesn't seem all that far off to easily win it.

Pf course, if Biden wins any state overall (NV, GA, AZ, NC, etc) that shrinks it by 2 each time.

I'm sure it changes it some, and it definitely would made district races much more interesting as hardly any state is lockstep one or the other, and you'd at least feel like you got the power over a national election in more local ways.

My prediction as of right now is Biden gets AZ, NV, PA.  Drumpf still gets GA.

I think GA weirdly goes for Biden given that it's 61k now, and trump does enough to get back AZ, or at least as close that GA will be.

Honestly, in terms of lending credence to the "count all the votes" I'd be 1000000% down with GA and PA ending up Biden and AZ going trump, if anything cause it'll hurt his "count here, but stop here!" crap. It'll show it wasn't "rigged" (cause it isn't) how could it be "rigged" if you got the benefit over there? I know it won't ultimately matter in the maga eyes, but who cares about them.

And yes, when it comes to PA, I saw Nate Cohn (I think) say something like 500k votes came in for Biden, and it was over 75-25 Biden, with like 600k to go. It seems pretty likely Biden wins PA by >100k. Just have to "get there"

The only thing about PA though is that I have seen 3 different #s in outstanding, 500k, 600k, and 730k. Even at 500k it's probably going Biden by a decent margin, I just wish we knew exactly what it was.

Sure...for MAGAs that don't live in AZ.  McCain was the voice of Republicans in Arizona for 30 years.  I think Trump easily takes AZ if he would have made some type of amends with the McCain family.  He may have not directly received the McCain's support after making amends, but voters would have seen it as an effort.

Do you really think so? Most MAGAs I talk with revel in Trump's treatment of McCain.

Sure...for MAGAs that don't live in AZ.  McCain was the voice of Republicans in Arizona for 30 years.  I think Trump easily takes AZ if he would have made some type of amends with the McCain family.  He may have not directly received the McCain's support after making amends, but voters would have seen it as an effort.

Also Biden had a good relationship with McCain and marketed that pretty good during the DNC.

effing yinzers

This reinforces to me a tweet I saw earlier of what is making this go even slower, given the impending threat of litigation, they (the vote counters) are documenting the living hell out of everything and doing as much as they can to do things as by the book as possible, so the court cases will be a walk (for whoever wins).

Per CNN:
24 min ago
Pennsylvania's Allegheny County will not count remaining ballots until Friday
From CNN's Kate Bolduan

Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, will not count anymore ballots until tomorrow because of a court agreement over some 29,000 disputed ballots, according to County Councilwoman Bethany Hallam.

The agreement stems from a legal challenge over misprinted ballots that had to be reissued to some voters. The county agreed not to count the potential pool of reprinted ballots until Nov. 6 at 5 p.m. ET – the deadline for receiving mail-in votes that were sent by Election Day.

Allegheny County poll workers will not be counting today because the bulk of the remaining pool of ballots in the county are the disputed pile.

“There is nothing malicious going on here,” Hallam said. “It is frustrating that there isn’t more information of what they are actually doing today,” she added. 
CNN is seeking comment from the county.

“The Elections Division staff will be using the day to do administrative work,” according to an internal county communication obtained by CNN.

They will resume counting on Friday.

Why did Biden do so poorly with blacks compared to past elections? The narrative during the primaries was centered on how well he did with them. Did he just give up on them after the primaries?

primary support means almost nothing for general support.  they are different pools of voters.

There are other people claiming to have vote in person only to look on line and the state says they voted absentee weeks before.

One thing for sure, we can not look into these.   Of course, if the situation was flipped, ChiCom Joe would be marching in an army of lawyers and multiple U.S. cities would be burning to the ground.   As it now, they're still rioting and Biden is winning.

Based on what the Elections dude in GA just said, Biden would close by roughly10k if he picks up the outstanding ballots at an approximate rate with how the county voted.  Mail-in has had a bigger Biden advantage which he would likely need to tip it.  A lot of potentially outstanding military could do a lot too.

If you assume those % are the same for those per county, that's a net Biden ~8400 votes, not enough, but the mail ins are usually higher to Biden. It's going to be damn close.  Very, very close, a shift of 5% in each county to Biden for example makes it +9740. So it's going to need to be a significant increase. Wish he reported what mail in % per candidate were, not just total, if he did, we'd probably know.

That last dump then was 76.3% Biden (4708 to 1462). If all the rest is on that margin goes that way and you take the recently posted votes out of the 47k, Biden gains 21600, more than enough to win. But, probably not going to be that high

3486 now, another pretty good % at 65.2% (2460-1311). I think Biden has it. So that means roughly 15k votes left

Looking again at the PA maps, Biden is likely to flip at least two of Bucks, Monroe and Lehigh counties, while finishing strong in Allegheny, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery, and Philadelpia. Biden carries the state by ~2%.

Update - Biden has flipped all three of those counties, which bodes well for the other half of this prediction.

it's looking really good for him to win all three.  pa is already over.  ga looks like a very narrow win and then endless recounts if trump still cares once he is made to understand he's not going to be president either way.  az is a bit of a black box, but the people best able to see into that box say biden will win.

We were told it wouldn't even be close, a blue tsunami crossing the land.

Talking points issued far and wide to talk down the minority vote for Trump.

Just glad Joe will be walking into a massive Covid effort with the scientific processes, logistics and funding already in place to create and distribute a vaccine across the entire country.   Hopefully his frail old racist war loving ass can stick with it for 6 months.

A huge difference of course is that old white racist Joe ensured that hundreds of thousands of people of color were incarcerated, hundreds of thousands of people of color were killed, million's of POC were displaced from their homes and millions of POC were deported.   

Expect nothing less from Robert "Grand Cleagle" Byrd's best bud.

i mentioned a long time ago that Jacksonville and OKC were the only metros with at least 1M population that Trump won in 2016 (there are 53 total).

i just looked at each of them on the NYT map, and he lost Jacksonville this year. OKC is the only city that is predominately pro Trump.

It felt good to vote for Biden though didn't it. I think he is a kind person. I know y'all probably talked about it at length in a billion other threads, but he really did an amazing job with his campaign.

You know, for 5 years Trump has been playing the role of the tough guy. Yet Mr. Biden is a man who experienced real loss and kept going, kept working, and displayed true empathy and courage for our country. He's the truly tough guy.

I probably have a lot of different views than Mr. Biden, but we both agree on putting others above ourselves. What a refreshing person.

Joe Biden used his position as VPOTUS to profit.  He played a huge role in sending thousands of American son’s and daughter’s off to die in needless wars.  He played a big part in killing thousands of people in far off lands, and displacing millions more from their homes. 

He played a pivotal role in separating sons and fathers from their families and sending them to prison by being a champion of draconian sentencing legislation.

But he’s a Democrat and none of that matters.

We'll see if ChiCom Joe can shake off the Obama-AOC (New Pol Pot) faction and have a good relationship with Israel.

But already the usual suspects are lining up to try and unravel the many new peace accords.

Expect that to accelerate if Biden brings in a number of already well established TPOS into his administration.

What about the SS (non nazi) guys who protect trump after he leaves office? Will they have to fight biden's SS guys when they come to evict trump? What are the rules of engagement for SS vs SS? No guns? Are clubs/blunt force weapons allowed? Rock Paper Scissors?

I've read that they would help Biden's SS guys forcibly remove Trump because at that point, Trump would be an active threat to the president's safety.

These are fascinating takes from a party who was once lead by a person who as late as this past summer was doing one interview after another where she repeatedly implied that she was somehow cheated out of winning the election in 2016.

I suppose, when one party is filled with millions who believe that, and lead by agents of de-legitimization (Vlad's favorite kind of people) for 4 years, then there is a level of recognition of similar events that must be discussed.

Another positively fascinating (and enjoyable) thing is the great joy that BidenVoter is getting out of bringing up Pubs talking about GA in 2018, while failing to also recognize that Abrams refused to accept the results of the election for several weeks.

I do take solace in one thing.   Had this current situation been reversed, I think we can all agree that multiple U.S. cities would be burning right now, and the ongoing widespread violence would be extremely dis-heartening.

Again, Dems aren't my party.  My party is the ones demanding the recount and it is ridiculous.  If you think Trump is going to get 100% of votes left to count in WI, MI, PA, AZ, NV, and GA you are delusional.  Also, PA law does not require a recount if gap is > .5%.  Right now it is at .7% and climbing.  WI will only pay for a recount if the margin of victory is under .25%....so right now Trump needs to open his checkbook if he wants one there.  The rest of the states are irrelevant, though it looks like Biden won all but NC.

I believe our constitution stipulates that state legislatures control elections in individual states, not the courts.   It is not the least bit surprising or unusual that any campaign would seek remedy in court in a situation where a state court over stepped their lane.   The SCOTUS was wrong to pass on that case.

Not really comparable. Gore lost by 536 votes in ONE state. Trump is getting beaten by literally 30x that (if not more) in Michigan, in Wisconsin, in Pennsylvania, in Arizona, in Georgia, and in Nevada.

I think that's the point. Technically speaking the president should be able to explore any and all legal avenues. However, in this case it's clear it's just Trump being a baby and it hurts the country in more ways than one.

It's more of the framing of fraud 100% happened at a large scale and concluding that the election is being stolen that were telegraphed months ago. Otherwise I really wouldn't gaf about him asking for recounts or for verification/trying to investigate legitimate fraud while he doesn't concede initially. Some of the stuff would still irk me like the Harris Co thing.

The "framing of fraud 100% happened" damages another pillar of government in this country. The transition delay hurts democrats, which Republicans may cheer, but is also not good for the country.

The calls of fraud are 100% problematic, but of course we knew it was coming, he's done it for four years with an election he won. That still doesn't mean the democrats need to whine about him conceding, before he needs to. Also,.we aren't close to the point where the transition not fully being carried out is a problem, it's been like 3 days.

Yeah, I am enjoying the complaining and whatnot by pubs over the yelling of fraud, it makes them look like loons, probably not great but also most people also seem to have taken this as it's over and not pushing too hard, only dumbasses (like the admin in the white house til Jan 20th) are really making it be a thing. Let them do it, it'll make it so much more fun to watch them fail spectacularly.

I guess I am not worried about any of their lawsuits because a) everything this administration has ever done is basically the equivalent of a 5 year old's level of understanding about things, so it's pretty easy to dismiss it (also see that such a lollers moment at the landscaping place) and b) Biden will have won this fairly handily with many options to have pushed him over 270, it wasn't close.

It's kinda annoying that trump and co have to do this, but realistically, they would've done it if he lost by Nixon-esque numbers (and that would honestly freak therm out more than this)

Not just that, national security risk becomes high if transitions don't happen.  I'm hearing many reports that Biden is well versed in national security, which is great.  That being said, they cannot communicate regarding national security with current administration until GSA provides approval.  Every day Trump admin refuses to concede and start the transition is a day the new Biden administration does not have the resources in place to receive that information.

This.

Quote
When the 9/11 Commission finished its report, it found that the delayed transition “hampered the new administration in identifying, recruiting, clearing and obtaining Senate confirmation of key appointees” in the national security arena. The commission also concluded that avoiding future disruptions in transitions was deeply in the national interest.

There’s a chance, but I think in reality these cases are VERY carefully worded to avoid allegations of actual fraud, which is the main reason they’re getting so easily kicked out. Filing a case based on a longshot legal interpretation (or asking for extremely mild relief) usually isn’t going to piss off a judge as much as it would to actually allege fraud without any evidence.

Interesting statistic when it comes to recounts:

Fairvote has looked at statewide recounts since 2000. The average shift in votes has been a mere 430 votes and 0.02 points. The largest shift in votes was a little less than 2,600 and 0.11 points.

mostly agree with this.  it doesn't matter in the slightest if trump concedes or not.  but it is important that the media and republican electeds do not treat the failure to concede as meaningful.  so far, they are mostly failing at that.

The two old guys in my office finally talked about politics today for the first time since the election.

Guy 1 started with how the media FINALLY gave trump Alaska. Then moved to how they are starting to reverse calls in other states. Guy 2 says he hasn't heard about that, g1 says he thinks it's pa or ga but can't remember. Then g1 says there's so much crap floating around right now it's hard to know what's true but he's still confident trump will prevail.

Right up there with anyone putting Jesus and trump together as if he's some Christian. Yes, a thrice married porn star rough ridin' and hush money paying man child who doesn't even know who's Bible he's holding in front of a church like it's totally not a prop and who also never has been to church, is the model of a Christian.

Great job by Don Trump on ensuring foreign actors didn't intervene in the election, BTW.

I am  :lol: thinking about how BidenVoter melted down when when the national cybersecurity White House position wasn't filled by the Trump administration.   You know the position that wasn't listened to when President Stand Down and National Security Advisor Stand Down were told that the Russians et. al. were interfering in the election of 2016.    Only to now see BidenVoter melting down at the rumor that the DHS cyber-security guy may get let go.

Find some actual fraud or shut up already.  If it's so widespread, it shouldn't be hard.  Colorado has been doing unsolicited mail-in ballots for years (which is the absolute best) so maybe start there.

Until then you're just trying to suppress voters.

So we all agree that mail in voting, in particular, unsolicited mail in ballots, is an unverifiable form of voting and should be illegal.

what is an "unsolicited mail in ballot"?

And how would the acceptance of these favor one party over another?

Some places mailed ballots to all registered voters IIRC. Not sure why this is “unverifiable”.

Some states/precincts mailed ballots to everyone on the rolls whether they asked for them or not, which had not been done before, not knowing if they were still at the address or even alive.  Anyone could fill out the ballot and send it in.

Probably no advantage to either party, just a vote that shouldn't count.

That's exactly the 2nd or 3rd post  :lol: at how out of their minds BidenVoter was. Specifically in regard to the constant stream of implications that any Trump victory would be the work of nefarious manipulation of the voting process.   One of the 4 or 5 prongs of the multi-front de-legitimization attack on the Trump presidency.

That's what color revolutions do you dumbass.   Our CIA wrote the book on it.

I'm not all the way there yet, because it's all getting mushed in courts, the Wayne co stuff is more alarming but, sanity will win out, and how can you prove that, how can they rescind something they did? also Biden won Michigan by 150k, how many votes are they themselves responsible for?

They're not going to stop one either. Not sure why we're talking about them.

katkid thinks the cia is omnipotent.  it's very important to his worldview.

no I don't and they aren't all powerful either. I think I'll pass listening to the same people that told me Russia stole the last election, getting all worked up about Guiliani and Gen. Flynn's lawyer holding literally hilarious press conferences and going on Newsmax and saying all manner of wild crap as some deep stain on our democracy.

there are plenty of actual bad things the US has done, is doing and will continue to do, but Trump getting big mad about losing is not worth worrying about.

70 Dem Senators boycotted Trumps inauguration because they said Trump was not a legitimate president; who only won in whole or in part because of illegal activities.   This was said in concert with other childish grievances that simpleton BidenVoter fully supported but likely didn't really understand unless they were stated in the most rudimentary terms.   Russian BOT farms noting that simple minded BidenVoter was ripe for the riling, kicked into high gear after the election was over. 

This of course kicked off 4 years of a multi-pronged effort of de-legitimization of the Trump administration.   One prong of that effort was to build a case that wholly implied that if Trump won in 2020 that his victory would be achieved via illegal methods.     This narrative prompted Hillary Clinton to implore ChiCom Joe Biden and Biden Family Inc. to not concede anything.   During the last 4 years, BidenVoter leadership has stood in the various halls of Congress and elsewhere and continually planted the bread crumbs of a Russian (or other entity) hacked election.   I documented multiple videos and articles where various BidenVoter Leaders said exactly those kinds of thing.  Which means the addled brains on this board have already forgotten. 

Now, any investigation into possible wrong doing in the voting process is a threat to our Democracy because ChiCom Joe won.

Post by: SkinnyBenny on December 05, 2020, 06:54:38 AM
Democrats saying Trump was an illegitimate president carries significantly more weight than Trump voters saying Biden is illegitimate, though. HillDawg beat Trump by 3 million votes, and the only reason he was ever inaugurated in the first place in 2016 was because we use an absurd, outdated system that no other country on earth uses.

Trump voters and elected Republicans saying Biden’s election is illegitimate have a much tougher case to make, because this year Trump got his ass beat in both the electoral college and the popular vote. The will of the people was made extremely clear in this election, but even moreso last night when Biden’s lead widened to 7 million votes. Republicans claiming illegitimacy have a much harder case to make, and frankly it seems pathetic, like they’re whining about the refs after losing by 35.

Trump’s 0-2 in elections held in any other country. :frown:

This has been proven false over and over again, particularly with democrats. As a centrist republican, I can certainly understand you pushing that narrative. Democrats that do it are disingenuous frauds.

I don't agree with that, but it sure in the hell didn't help. Biden was still getting his ass kicked going into Super Tuesday. I'm not sure if Bernie wins if the field didn't capitulate all at once, but I'm very sure Biden wouldn't have. If we're on a continuum that's certainly more right than Bernie lost because people don't like his policies.

We have enough evidence to show that people are generally misinformed about who they vote for and more frequently than not, vote against their own interests.

My memory is fuzzy on this (and I may have misunderstood it the first time), but at least in some states when you register to run for President you provide a list of your electors if you win, so basically a vote for you is a vote for those people to appear at the electoral college vote.

So basically I think Miller is saying Trump’s electors are going to meet and cast their votes in favor of Trump, which is basically their entire job. Just so happens it means absolutely nothing if you don’t win the statewide vote.

Faithless electors happen because even if you get “your guys” one of them can still decide to go rogue (which, when it happens is almost always when they’re sure it won’t affect the results so they just want to make some stupid statement).

The main difference between states is in how they treat faithless electors. Some impose criminal sanctions, and I think others make it literally impossible to vote against the candidate by automatically replacing them until they vote how they’re supposed to.

Not positive about that second one but I think I read it at one point.

It doesn’t hurt them be because the cases will always be so sparse, people can care about and ignore whichever ones they want. Democrats think Republicans commit more voter fraud and Republicans think Democrats commit more. I don’t see that ever changing.

The reason to be worried about the country is that we long ago allowed, no required, government officials to do what's politically convenient instead of what's right. We have a sitting president on tape trying to convince someone who is tasked directly with protecting our democracy, you can make the claim that's worse than literal murder. We have this and not only do we have people willing to allow the president to get away with this, but there are enough citizens who don't care enough about this and who will excuse turning a blind eye because grabbing for every bit of power is more important than anything else.

That willingness to do anything and everything to snatch up every bit of power available is exactly why we are where we are right now. Ignoring this because it's politically expedient is an endorsement for escalating this criminal behavior. Don't you think it has to stop at some point?

Americans pretending to care about democracy is laughable, sad, and infuriating. Capitalism has choked out a true democracy.

Eh, maybe.
It was a generation but I think our brand of capitalism specifically provides incentives for the general electorate to not care about this. People are willing to accept this behavior because there is nothing to gain from doing so. Government corruption is a much bigger deal in other places because the perception is that corruption has a greater affect on the citizens.

He won’t do anything. That’s basically the platform he ran on.

It’s sad, but the biggest reason no one cares about what Trump is doing right now is because he’s so bad at it and they’re just completely over him. In some ways though that’s the most dreaded outcome for Trump. To just fade into obscurity despite every attempt to get people talking about him.

I do think folks like Cruz should face serious consequences for their part in trying to legitimize everything.

So punish the sex worker and not the pimp who is forcing her into labor?

So you haven't moved beyond thinking this dude is nothing more than a harmless idiot? Trump's clearly the straw stirring this drink, they aren't using him as some meat shield, they are hanging on to his train of lunacy. The greatest voice for trumpism right now is a "man" who allowed trump to repeatedly and publicly call his wife ugly and his dad a murder. Stop acting like trump is a passenger.

Just based on what has happened so far, he’s as harmless now as he will be in a few weeks. And short of staging some type of military coup that won’t change (I wouldn’t doubt he explored the idea, but I also expect there is next to zero support for it).

It’s still a dangerous ideology, but the success of it is entirely dependent on others to keep alive. You make Trump a martyr now and it only bolsters those guys. Making him irrelevant is the best you can do IMO.

Either way, the runoffs remain an afterthought for Trump. He spent much of the last half hour of his speech reciting the same lies he told during an hour-long conversation with Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, a Republican, on Saturday, a recording of which Raffensperger’s office shared with the press. The president also suggested that Vice President Mike Pence, who serves a largely ceremonial role overseeing the count of Electoral College votes on Wednesday, might try to swing the result to Trump, though he didn’t specify how.

“I hope our great vice president comes through for us. If he doesn’t come through, I won’t like him quite as much,” he said, grinning. “He’s going to have a lot to say with it.”

maga is the catnip of people who have always hated the gubment, who sit in small country bars talking about how they would change things if they were in charge, and talk about what really is the matter with America. It just took the confederate flaggers in the south a while to realize their in general sentiments were felt by most people in small town USA, since they never left their own towns for so long, and then poof, this magical thing called the internet comes along and now it's not just some people in one area, it's all over.

that, and the catnip of suburban dads like kazz dub and texags who constantly feel like the nice little life they set up for themselves is somehow being assaulted by some unruly neighbors like it's it's a fight in a HOA meeting, as long as their PTO isn't overly used up for cause of course

Meanwhile early signs are ChiCom Joe indicates he's going to put a halt to the U.S.'s move to global energy dominance as quickly as he can and both President Xi and Vlad Putin thank him profusely in advance.

I basically looked for things like chain link fencing and run down homes to determine Trumpland. Also old trees vs new trees. Pennsylvania threw me off because they have some nice looking homes with old trees in their Trumpland.

Just a non TBT look back at when questioning the outcome of elections was cool (and accepted)

I'm sure most of you took the time to reminisce about the time just a few years back when it was perfectly acceptable to question the outcome of elections and to repeatedly call the elected President illegitimate (and it will be again in the future if the Republicans can overcome the manufactured super majority process) . . . you know, back during when questioning every Democratic presidential loss wasn't a "threat to our Democracy".   

Welp, this is probably going to change some "lets be like the Europeans" minds that at one time dominated the ProgLib movement.

Of 47 nations surveyed in Europe -- a place where, on other matters, American progressives often look to with envy -- all but one country requires a government-issued photo voter ID to vote. The exception is the U.K., and even there voter IDs are mandatory in Northern Ireland for all elections and in parts of England for local elections. Moreover, Boris Johnson’s government recently introduced legislation to have the rest of the country follow suit.

Seventy-four percent of European countries entirely ban absentee voting for citizens who reside domestically. Another 6% limit it to those hospitalized or in the military, and they require third-party verification and a photo voter ID. Another 15% require a photo ID for absentee voting.

Similarly, government-issued photo IDs are required to vote by 33 nations in the 37-member Organistion for Economic Co-operation and Development (which has considerable European overlap). Only the UK, Japan, New Zealand, and Australia currently do not require IDs. Of those outliers:


On the mainland, France banned mail-in voting in 1975 because of massive fraud in the island region of Corsica, where postal ballots were stolen or bought and others were cast in the names of dead people.

Paragraphs are your friend.

The reason the ProgFacist goes straight to the racism card with follow-up using various forms of race based labels is because to get into the details would expose the idiocy and thus subject the ProgFascist to the ridicule they so richly deserve.

The "laser focus" comment is absolutely  :lol:

The standard list of requirements is every case is a list of documentation needed for any able bodied/mind/guardian aided citizen to participate in nearly every facet of our society be it:  Governmental, financial system, health system, educational system participation and engagement (and that's just naming a few).   Without any of them, functioning in our modern society would be nearly impossible.   A litany of Federal/State/Local agencies has a list of either unacceptable or secondary ID only items of which most if not all of your "laser focus" items reside.   In other words, don't even bother trying to use that list of ID's as your primary in trying to engage with us because they're not going to get you anywhere by themselves.    This is understood by anyone with even a modicum of intelligence and engagement in the basic mechanisms of a 1st world country.

Every state I've lived in offers a free state ID.   The list of things you can use to get them is many bullet points long and even if you don't have any of those there's other processes that that one can go through to obtain a free ID.

You live in a state that closed several DMVs in predominately poor black rural areas, this happened after they made IDs mandatory to vote.

There should probably be some transparency into the auditing process.  What happens if this guy claims the election was rigged?

Why would you want transparency when you can give a trove of voter data to a CEO so he can disappear with it to his super secret lab at his Montana compound where no one is allowed to see anything?

What do impeachment proceedings have to do with the absurd Arizona recount that is happening right now? Do you also admit that this recount is operating significantly differently than every other recount in history? Because it is.

I told you exactly what I objected to, I've told you twice, you made the decision to cut it out. You have the right to ignore my objection to your hypocritical claims, but don't tell me you didn't read it.

i promise you i am not being deliberately obtuse nor am i ignoring your commentary.  as nearly as i can summarize your argument it is:  "i don't believe reade's accusation of rape and i don't find her to be a credible person; however it is hypocritical and unfair that her allegations were investigated so rigorously that i was able to make that determination."

i do not understand that.


re., the senate records, you're making excuses as to why there is no need for them to be publicly released. There are no excuses, he's already allowed hand picked members of the public to read those files, there should be nothing to hide.

again, i find your logic to be unfollowable.  i don't know if your assertion that he allowed some people in his campaign to go through his papers to be true, but assuming it is - you appear to be suggesting that if biden considers it advisable to allow anyone to view his papers, he should be comfortable allowing everyone to do so.

that makes no sense.  there is every reason to think that there are things in those papers that he wishes to hide.  he chose to hide them years ago when he donated the papers, he reaffirmed that choice when he left the white house and he is doing so again now.  he's trying to win the most important election of his life, if there is anything that might damage that chance in those papers, and again, it seems very likely he thinks there is, why in the world would he voluntarily choose to share it now?

knowledgeable people unconnected with his campaign have explained that his papers would not have personnel records.  reade herself has stated that she did not file a complaint of sexual assault or rape.  accordingly, there is no reason to think there is anything relevant to reade's allegations in those papers.

why, then, should he voluntarily release papers that presumably include information that he thinks might damage his electoral chances when the papers in question are not relevant to reade's accusation?

i'm not intending to single out mir, here.  this is just the first post of mine that came up when i searched.


but i do want to remind everyone that thought that reade was a credible person when her accusations gathered national attention that she was not credible, and it was very obvious at the time.

Is that screen cap from today? I'd be interested in the context. Paula Jones and Juanita Broadrick are complete nut bags and but I believe them. To hear them tell it, they are nutty because of how they were and are treated when they made accusations.

I still think he greatly mumped up by being so secretive about those senate files, still gives the appearance he was hiding something.
