Yeah, I worry that the idea of a peaceful transfer of power may be put to the test come January 20, 2021.

Pence will leave, without incident.


Well played.

Republicans in PA are thinking of blocking Lindsey Williams from being seated in the State Senate because she registered to vote in Pennsylvania in December 2014.

She is good at keeping everyone together and raising money. Which are both huge. Just don't know if it outweighs the rights obsession with her. However, lots of them campaigned using ads smearing her and we still are gonna get 40 seats

If not, stick with Pelosi for one more cycle. Can't have a national IDC.

If it's Pelosi you take a step back. She's toxic and energizes the opposition.

completely stalling a serious movement within the party and country because Republicans, who will dislike anyone we put up, will be excited to vote against Nancy Pelosi seems shortsighted

Per the article you linked, the courts dismissed the lawsuit because it was filed after the pre-election deadline, not on merit.

she moved in November, registered in December, has been here 4 years. pretty clear cut. to not seat her would be ridiculous.

How many winners had to promise to vote against her for speaker? What movement is SHE really driving? Of course they'll dislike anyone but there's a visceral response when her name is mentioned.

it's not about Pelosi, it's about who this crew would produce. they would likely be worse than Pelosi at everything

I think that’s right. Say what you want about Pelosi but she’s smart and knows how to get things done. Better the devil you know.

I was standing waiting for my Uber, when my Eagles hat Drew someone's attention three weeks ago.

I met a newly minted White House Correspondent.

We actually keep running into each other, next at Chipotle, and then Rite Aid.

At any rate, she is in her breaking in period as a young brash actual WH correspondent.

She is very concerned about the state of affairs.

In my opinion, the electorate just voted to impeach the Donald.

The MOST powerful person in the world is now Nancy Pelosi.

From what I have learned, they will investigate and then impeach and very likely convict the Donald, who would never resign.

ONLY the part about conviction is conjecture. There is no doubt impeachment will ensue.

There is a mountain of evidence under about ten categories of crimes and misdemeanors not to mention abuses of power. The abuses of power are the most interesting.

The Donald sought to incite violence and help increase the collective hate while birthing the American Fascist state.

People died as the Donald consistently incited violence.

Judge Rules In Gov. Scott’s Favor In Broward Elections Records Request

Alex Harris @harrisalexc
Ok, so even though Broward said yesterday they counted all early votes yesterday, Broward SOE staffer told us they are several bags of uncounted early ballots (not a lot, “tens of ballots” he said). Unclear when they knew about these.

Clown show

It's a clown show, but that doesn't mean you don't count the ballots of people who voted. You are deliberately conflating the two, just like Scott is. It's infantile and dishonest.

They need to do a recount anyway. Recount everywhere and have people from both parties present at each location. If scott, wins, he wins. if he doesn't win, call in the national guard and arrest people, I guess.
