  1. Biden’s not dead, he’s just been operating their AI tool to add people to Harris’s rallies.
  2. Only way to get there is to get an electoral system that reduces or eliminates the spoiler effect for third parties. One such system, Ranked Choice Voting, is picking up steam and would be a big improvement on the current system.
  3. Yet another reason to have an election system that allows for third parties without the spoiler effect (like Ranked Choice): it would help prevent one-party rule by providing a path forward when one of the current two parties becomes non-competitive. The Colorado GOP may be effectively dead, but you could have a new conservative party rise without cannibalizing the vote
  4. It's a weird thing to have an issue with since it doesn't really change anything or allow for fraud and isn't in the hands of the voter.
  5. I'm sorry, I'm just having difficulty understanding what your concern around the 3 day rule is. According to Nevada election laws: Ballots delivered by hand have to be in by 7pm on Election Day Ballots received within three days of Election Day were almost certainly mailed on or before Election Day, so they are acceptable Ballots received four days after Election Day may have been mailed after Election Day and therefore require to have been postmarked on or before Election Day Ballots received five days after Election Day are not accepted even if postmarked on or before Election Day All ballots are verified before being counted Where is the issue here? Is the concern that hundreds or thousands of people are going to mail in their ballot the day after Election Day and have them somehow arrive within two days?
  6. In this scenario, what is happening? Someone is stacking a bunch of ballots in a truck somewhere and then they get to the clerk's office how? They just pull the truck up and hand deliver them? At which point the clerk is going to... verify the ballots to ensure they are legitimate?
  7. I'm sorry, what is the nefarious scenario that you are worried about if someone mails their ballot in by election day but USPS neglects to postmark it?
  8. How fast is the mail by you? If you drop an envelope in the mail, it arrives the next day? Do you think that maybe there's a reason they will accept with a postmark for four days but without one for only three?
  9. How is counting ballots that were almost certainly mailed on or before election day a problem?
  10. According to the law and court ruling, the clerk may accept ballots that are postmarked up to four days after Election Day and ballots without a postmark up to three days after Election Day. According to the court: "“If a voter properly and timely casts their vote by mailing their ballot before or on the day of the election, and through a post office omission the ballot is not postmarked, it would go against public policy to discount that properly cast vote,” the justices wrote in their order. “Rejecting timely mail ballots because of postal service omissions cuts against the strong public interest in exercising the right to vote,” the justices said. “Notably, the RNC presented no evidence or allegations that counting mail ballots without postmarks under [state law] would be subject to voter fraud, or that the election security measures currently in place are inadequate to address its concerns regarding these ballots.” (source) The logic here is that if a ballot arrives within three days after Election Day, it was almost certainly mailed before Election Day given the speed of the mail. If the Post Office neglected to postmark it, that is not the fault of the voter. Additionally, once a ballot is received by the clerk, it still undergoes verification before being counted.
  11. The real racists are the people who don’t like racist jokes! -MAGA, apparently
  12. MSG was such a great show for Trump. His supporters should definitely share videos of it to their friends and on their social media. That comedian was hilarious. Everyone should see his bit from a podium with Trump’s name on it.
