  1. I think early voting in PA was essentially that a "mail in" ballot would be printed for the voter at the polling location, and then the voter would fill out and return the "mail in" ballot right away. Are these numbers including the early votes? Or just true "mail in" votes?
  2. The Republican Pennsylvania legislature made it the law there that the mail in ballots can’t be counted until Election Day. The GOP set up this entire mess. They’re not letting officials count the ballots early, and now they’re arguing that because those ballots aren’t counted early they shouldn’t be counted. They’re un-democratic fucksticks.
  3. So if we're not actually going to count the votes, I think we should just go with polls, and declare Biden the victor. Is that how this works?
  4. We've always been at war with Eastasia, you moron.
  5. Huh? Is their plan to snarl traffic on Tuesday? Make it next to impossible for people to get home from work and vote? Although they’re probably just being giant assholes. So there’s that.
  6. So is this their plan for Tuesday? Stop people from getting in and out of NYC/to and from work, in a state that has only limited early voting.
  7. What are they even protesting, though? That their guy is president? It's like a 2-year-old's tantrum now that the election is in a couple days.
  8. All the silent trump supporters in the NY area, shutting down the Tappan Zee Bridge and the Parkway.
  9. Weird how the same group who went on about what victims they were because someone once took off one of their MAGA caps, whining to the media for weeks, is silent about about rocks being thrown at their cars. Also weird how the same so called silent people love driving around the NY area in a “parade” with their trump flags.
  10. Yup, and three current SCOTUS justices, including two of the trump appointees, were on Bush's legal team for Bush v. Gore.
  11. I don't know about surveys. But NY never even had early voting before this year. NJ and (I think) CA, mailed ballots to all registered voters. At least in NJ, where I live, early voting was extremely limited in past cycles. I've never early voted. This year, almost everyone is voting by mail, with ballots mailed to all registered voters, and at least one drop box in every town. My understanding is that CA is the same. The change in voting systems in these states, and maybe other states, means that there will be far more early votes than would have been possible in past years.
  12. In person election day voting is going to go down, though, if you're looking at national numbers. Many states whose elections in the past were dominated by Election Day voting, including NY, NJ, and CA, are doing far more early voting and vote by mail than in previous years and have very limited voting on Election Day this year due to Covid.
  13. Tying to stay busy. Since everyone here seems to be a lawyer, https://866ourvote.org/. And also doing some canvassing this weekend. Also this.
  14. If someone cannot communicate clearly enough so that it makes it seem he's calling on assassination of the next president, well then he shouldn't have that microphone. I'm done trying to parse out what trump means. He spews vile shit and word salad every time he opens his gob. His intent in one particular sentence is meaningless.
  15. I put him on ignore about a week ago. This board is so much better without having to read through tons of posts with him pontificating while (1) not having any actual knowledge and (2) not doing anything to stand for what he believes in, including even voting.
  16. Taxpayers have given at least $2.5 million to trump's companies.
  17. NPR for the beginning as I'm driving back from poll watching in Philadelphia. After that, need suggestions on where to watch online, since I cut the cord last month.
  18. ACB, Roberts, and Kavanaugh all worked for Bush's legal team on Bush v. Gore. Thomas and Alito are partisan hacks. There's your five, with the possible addition of Gorsuch. The push to confirm ACB in record time was clearly an attempt to steal the election for trump. The only question is whether they'll be successful.
  19. I'd throw tomatoes at people voting for trump in 2020. Also the trump parade morons.
  20. I wasn't referring to Burisma. I was referring to the Bobulinski thing. In 2017.
  21. Here's what I don't get. Even if it's all true, so what. This would really be a nothingburger. Ignoring that the entire thing is made up fantasy land for a minute, even if it were true, Biden's son used Biden's name to enter into a business agreement in a time period when Biden was a private citizen. There's nothing even scandalous about that.
  22. Courting the "religious" right, while dog whistling ala Willie Horton, followed by enduring eight years with a black President.
