Election

[tinselwolverine]

Lol
Georgia a full hand recount !

So how many Biden votes will the Cheating GOP lose in the shredder ? My guess is a lot.
Hopefully there are some Law abiding non-Trump Republicans somewhere in Georgia!

Maybe while they?re at it, they should think of ways to shred some of them Dem ballots in the two upcoming Senate run off elections, too.

Just as a hedge, in case they fail to steal the election back from ?ol J?Biden.

I heard on the news seven challenges have been dismissed or rejected by various, or something like that.

Don?t know how many challenges there are; I think there at least two automatic recounts.

Still a ways to go; I still don?t care much.

I could swear I lived through this 20 years ago - didn?t care much then either - but the script seems to have flipped.

yeah, I saw that as well but would point out, while the impact may be similar, dismissing challenges is not the same as debunking them.

Super glad you fixed it skippy but again I was just responding to what you said which was wrong. Biden did get more votes then Clinton in California by a lot.

no dopey, you weren't. you made no mention of what I said or how many votes Clinton got in California, just that Biden was leading Trump by 5mm. Just in case you're confused, here's your post I quoted...

Biden is up in California 10,279,215. To trumps 5,363,843. It may be by over 5 million when it’s over.

Also, it's Biden got more votes "than" Clinton, not "then" Clinton.

The state delegations are a combination of both houses of Congress?

And are the candidates limited to the speaker of the house and the president pro tempore of the senate?

That could be pretty interesting. By January 20, the new Congress will be sworn in and seated, and we don?t even know who the speaker of the house nor the president pro tem pore of the senate is going to be at that time.

Does that POTUS get to select a VP or is that decided similarly? And if he/she does get to pick who would Pelosi choose? this is really getting the wheels turning.

That?s a good question but Byco is the one who would know this.

I vaguely remember this discussion coming up In the Press 20 years ago when it appeared that the decision between bush and gore might not in fact be decided in the amount of time that it ended up being decided. I don?t know if I heard the detail that byco has gone into but I do remember some thing about all this.

In the event where there is an incomplete election, only an acting president is chosen until the election is complete.

In regards to the contingent election, an absolute majority of the Senate (51) elects the vice president. The contingent election would only involve the candidates with the top-three electoral votes for president and vice president. This, only in the event where no candidate has the 270 EC votes.

Pay attention now, this is a real possibility.

And IMO, all of this is going to end up resulting in Pence/Harris in effort to calm the nation after the left goes ape shit and burns down half the country.

Class dismissed.

If the election is not settled by Jan 20, Pelosi is acting president. Since a recount will result in the same scenario no matter who wins, I expect this will occur.

not sure about that. doesn't the new congress start Jan 3rd been some talk about her not being renewed for speaker will she still be the speaker by Jan 20th? perhaps..idk..I can't stand the thought of your scenario that's just a horrible thought.

 

[tigermud]

how have they been debunked?

people think saying the word debunked makes something debunked.

it's weird.


DEBUNKED! I Dubunk all of you and raise you a Debunked!

And Nancy could choose Hillary, don't tell sgg that he still thinks I'm crazy.
Nightmare scenarios still in play. my prediction Pence and Harris when the dust settles. late Jan. And the country is going to go through a tremendous amount of pain between now and then. Mainly from the BLM and Antifa bastards but law and order will prevail in the end.


oh and side note: the Durham report still isn't out yet, all that's coming down in the middle of all this yet also. buckle up

yeah, I saw that as well but would point out, while the impact may be similar, dismissing challenges is not the same as debunking them.

Some of these challenges have been dismissed on procedural grounds, so courts aren't hearing and ruling on the merits of the claim. But I would wager the chances are pretty good that if the only lawyers Trump can find willing to take the case are bottom-feeder ones, like his Cooley Law school guy, who can't even draft a complaint correctly, and it gets dismissed for that reason, the case probably doesn't have much merit, and you can consider it debunked.

In other cases, yes, dismissing it is debunking it.

a lot of smoke, no fire so far.

This article, which has screenshots of Trump's
fundraising emails, implies these challenges are just another grift move to allow Trump to pay his campaign debt, and let the RNC wet its beak a little more:

After Election Day, the Trump campaign sent more than 130 emails soliciting campaign contributions, according to a tally maintained by the Twitter account @TrumpEmail. Most of those emails appear to be soliciting funds to support the legal effort that Trump claims will reverse the results of the election.
...
But if you read the fine print, money sent to the Election Defense Task Force will not necessarily be used to finance the Trump campaign's lawsuits. Donors are actually contributing to the Trump Make America Great Again Committee (TMAGAC), a joint fundraising committee of Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. and the Republican National Committee. 60% of the money donated to TMAGAC will go to pay the Trump campaign's debt and 40% will go to the general operating account of the Republican National Committee.

Money is only designated for recounts or other legal efforts if an individual donor reaches their legal limit or Trump retires his debt.
...
If Trump concedes, that money would come to a halt. You can't pretend to raise money for a legal challenge once you admit you've lost.

How much did you and tigermud pony up?

sidney powell is on trumps team that may be all he needs. j/k but seriously she is beyond fantastic, and remember what they all did to Flynn is still unforgivable.

I told you, I'll shoot the boot and post it here if that actually happens. I reserve the right to call you crazy until then.

Class dismissed.

Mother would never allow it.

Also, I'm glad you're posting again, even if in a limited capacity.

A grifter to the end.

Donations under $8K to Trump ‘election defense’ instead go to president, RNC

(Reuters) - As President Donald Trump seeks to discredit last week’s election with baseless claims of voter fraud, his team has bombarded his supporters with requests for money to help pay for legal challenges to the results: “The Left will try to STEAL this election!” reads one text.

But any small-dollar donations from Trump’s grassroots donors won’t be going to legal expenses at all, according to a Reuters review of the legal language in the solicitations.

A donor would have to give more than $8,000 before any money goes to the “recount account” established to finance election challenges, including recounts and lawsuits over alleged improprieties, the fundraising disclosures show.

The emailed solicitations send supporters to an “Official Election Defense Fund” website that asks them to sign up for recurring donations to “protect the results and keep fighting even after Election Day.”

The fine print makes clear most of the money will go to other priorities.

A large portion of the money goes to “Save America,” a Trump leadership PAC, or political action committee, set up on Monday, and the Republican National Committee (RNC). Under Federal Election Commission rules, both groups have broad leeway in how they can use the funds.

The Trump campaign, the RNC and Trump’s new Save America PAC did not respond to requests for comment.

Leadership PACs such as Save America are often set up by prominent political figures to spend money on other candidates, while also paying for personal expenses, such as travel and hotel stays.

So you did understand after all. You just can never admit when you are wrong. Which is just about all the time. Next time I will use the quote button troll.


Seriously wtf is wrong with you ?

It’s not the most likely time line now thank god but it does still lurk, she’s been rather quiet lately, wonder why

Facebook depresses me half my friends and family are all fighting with each other and it’s all going to get much worse yet before it gets better. I keep telling the half I agree with to go join Parler but they just won’t listen to me, stubborn jackasses

I’m not sure how long I’ll be back here for but happy to hear you are glad I’m positing here again. I hope someday I’ll be able to enjoy tigers and lions again.
