Yeah maybe I am making too much of it....

You're such a drama queen.

you know I don't think that's really the case.  I don't remember every following the news EVERY SINGLE DAY during the last 25 years of politics
this political era is unprecedented
There is just so much important news that goes on at a rapid fire pace
I feel its the shock and awe technique and it's working...pay attention to the silly dancing clown while we dismantle the structure and meaning of government as we know it

say what you will, but I don't think this is hyperbolic thinking at all, we have no other time in American history to compare this too...

My wife was just saying these exact same words right after out Thursday morning telework sex session this morning.

 At least she wasn't complaining about the sex.

2018 Space Freely is a great vintage. Full bodied right out of the bottle.

I'm sorry but Republicans have no shame when it comes to making sure votes don't count

I just don't know how an American citizen can be a Republican and look themselves in the mirror and be ok with any limits on actual citizens making actual votes

who the fuk cares how long it takes or how difficult it is...we all get one vote* (I know there are some rules and I'm fine with that)

Arizona GOP sues to limit mail-in ballots in McSally-Sinema race

you can have your opinion on ANY topic you want....but when it comes to suppressing votes in any way (that are legal) it pisses me off than just about any other low down and dirty tactic the GOP uses

[vansmack]

But they're indiscriminate, Sidehatch.  They even suppressed their own vote when it came to Merrick Garland!

[hutch]

Democrats may pick up Arizona senate seat!

I guess Arizona Republicans should have stuck with Flake instead of going for a batshit Trumpster.

[hutch]

Well...still early

[Dejecty-hatch lııllı|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|̲̅̅=̲̅̅|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|llıl]

That green party candidate took enough votes for sinema to win.  I love third parties...but only when it isn't so close

Of course Maricopa County makes the news
That county has been name dropped so many times I. The last decade

Although somewhat shocked to learn there are  over 4 million people in Maricopa County

[Julian, Bespoke SEXPERT]

Doesn’t Arizona only have like 4-5 counties total?

[Dejecty-hatch lııllı|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|̲̅̅=̲̅̅|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|llıl]

so Florida...
If there is a recount ...especially with the 70K absentee ballots found in Broward
Will Gillium be out of luck if its shown he won...since he already conceded

What is the precedent if someone concedes and then is shown to be the victor?

It is just crazy how 8Million votes get cast and both races are in the 40k difference

I have to disagree with hutch on the Ammendent #4 ...
nearly 1.5 million people in Florida have completed felony sentences ...now can  vote
Thats about 9.2 percent of the voting-age population in Florida.

Ok I will 100% agree that's not a reliable voting block...but with those numbers ...You just need 3-4% of them to vote to turn things blue
that's seems doable

[Dejecty-hatch lııllı|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|̲̅̅=̲̅̅|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|llıl]

jez...half a million ballots left to count

how can you call anything when there are that many outstanding...especially with this thin margin

[Julian, Bespoke SEXPERT]

You can't. Its a tossup.
