I'm just totally grossed out at this thoughtful, sourced analysis instead of multiple paragraphs of completely unsolicited random ruminations presented as facts. Get bent, nkotb.

@AriBerman
NOT A JOKE. This is how NC GOP responding to 357 page court order requiring them to remedy their illegal  gerrymander of state legislative districts
@AllisonJRiggs
So this just happened. The Senate Redistricting Committee just brought in freaking lottery officials to randomly draw a map to satisfy their duty to remedy constitutional violations in the map they drew in 2017. #notthelegalstandard #democracydiesinnc


This is not the actual gif...but this is similar to what they are using to pick districs


Honestly...not that bad of an idea

Shapiro is easily a top 5 hated figure in ky world. I am a pacifist but would love to punch his tiny face.  Gutted you thought that was sincere :(

Canada has a federal fixed election date and Canadians head to the polls every four years. This campaign will be a relatively short 40 days, or just over five weeks.

Could you imagine a 5 week campaign in the US
...there would be a whole industry of pundits looking for other work for the other 203 weeks of the cycle

And consultants and campaign staff and media (including TV stations in places like IA and NH)

Our system is an abomination

any bets on what he's going to do?

@samstein
Andrew Yang’s campaign manager just called to tell me that at tomorrow night’s debate, Yang will be doing "something no presidential candidate has ever done before in history.” He declined to go further than that.

I'm going with streaking...he's going to get naked and streak across the stage with Soy Bomb tattooed on his ass


already some good responses:
Reply to all questions with song and dance?
Long division live on stage? #math
Announcing he is dropping out
He's going to give a thousand dollars to every person in the crowd, like Oprah

Canada has a federal fixed election date and Canadians head to the polls every four years.

this statement is at best misleading, and at worse false.  canadian federal elections can happen on any date, and a term is in fact 5 years but the tradition is to call an election after 4 years. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed_election_dates_in_Canada

I usually don't reveal my source...but, blame the BBC
also I dropped the 'must' Canadians must head to the polls as it just sounded odd

so they call the election one year before they have to?

can you explain it with a gif or a meme (hopefully with a mountie in it?)

--let's be clear, my mockery of o Canedada is actually really psychological projection as a defense mechanism I subconsciously employ in order to cope with difficult feelings or emotions I have with how fucked up the US is and how Canada really has figured somethings out that we could learn from and if it wasn't so cold, I'd be happy living there

Given his Taiwanese background, that's probably not a good look for him.

65th out of 88 for the US. Imagine how much more poorly we'd be doing without African-Americans.
