Sure, it's disconcerting to see someone try it. But think of it as a stress test on the US electoral system. What we are witnessing right now is the system working. We have a guy who would love to be a Putin style "elected" dictator who never loses an election. He is threatening, cajoling, maybe even bribing for all I know, every single bureaucrat he can get his hands on to try to get himself declared the winner. Zero success. Nothing. All he is doing is creating this great body of caselaw that will be used in future generations to fight similar efforts.
You say this is proving the system works. I see it as a beta test for the future. Put another way, if Putin had compromised someone with maybe an extra 15 IQ points, we'd be farked.
And I take back anything I said mockingly towards Romney when he said Russia was still a threat 8 years ago. Clearly they are, just in the disinformation sphere rather than traditional military engagements.Last edited by unofan; 11-19-2020, 05:25 PM.

Well, I'm trying to win the Powerball, too. Who do you think has a better chance?
I voted for Biden. I have no doubt that Biden won. I also have no doubt that Trump, for all of his floundering around, has zero chance of changing that outcome. His legal team is like the '76-77 Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
You guys really need to just chill over all of this. Biden's legal team is on top of it. No election is going to get stolen.

It’s just so embarrassing that our country was toppled by Donald Trump. Dudes like Jim Jones and David Koresh frittered away their potential with their tiny little death cults.Huskies are very intelligent and trainable. Huskies make an excellent jogging companion, as long as it is not too hot. Grooming is minimal; bathing is normally unnecessary.

So, I know from the Covid thread that everyone here is keenly interested in all things North Dakota, so I thought I’d pass this along.
As noted earlier on this board, a man who died of Covid in October was elected to the legislature in November. By the time of his death it was too late to change the ballots.
Tomorrow the North Dakota Supreme Court will hear arguments in what must be a uniquely North Dakota case. Governor Burgum claims he is legally entitled to fill the seat. The North Dakota legislature claims they have the authority to appoint someone to the seat. They are joined by the Republican party. The state Democratic party claims every vote for the deceased was a “nullity” and therefore the Democrat who finished a distant second should get the seat.
i have no idea what the law is in ND so I can’t handicap the contest.That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

Jesus f-ck, they are traitors.
There is no reasonable people left in that party...the ones who can think on their own were ex-communicated or left. Even suggesting Trump lost makes you a RINO who colluded with Democrats to oust Trump and bring about a Fascist Socialist regime. That isnt hyperbole...that is what the party says OUT FCUKING LOUD!
You know how you know this isnt business as usual like Hovey and Sicatoka Collins believe...if it was people like Susan Collins, Mitch McConnell and Lady G. who are now safe for 6 years would be telling him to shut up and concede already. They are 100% silent or behind it. Even when they have nothing to lose they dont have the spine to stop what is coming and whats worse is they don't want to. They like it because it fills their pathetic worthless lives with power. They are selling out the United States to a piece of crap loser who can barely form coherent sentences.
This isnt like when your team loses the game and you whine about the refs to make yourself feel better. This is trying to burn down the whole league because your team lost because your goalie sucks. And it isnt just the fans, the team itself is threatening to quit the league if they dont change the results to make them feel better."It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."

AP says the the hand count confirms Biden won GA. Q claims JFK Jr. did...Rudy claims Stalin rigged it and Sidney Powell says all 5 million votes went to Trump."It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."
