Normy posted:Aren't dead senators replaced by the Governor by appointment? Lol if the Senate flips over this. As someone said before, it depends on the state, but the important takeaway is that it would be vacant until that happens. And in the case of the ones that are filled with special elections, would be vacant until next year's election cycle.

Fallom posted:It’s very nonspecific Yeah, at first I was thinking it was during the scare last year, but mentioning coronavirus had to be at least this year. He's also not showing symptoms or sounding like he's got breathing problems, so who knows when. Edit: if I had to guess, it was after he scored a positive on a COVID test but while he was asymptomatic. It was likely made in case he had to go to the hospital. Also, thinking about the last video and it being 10 seconds long, it was probably from a boilerplate seasonal video they cut down to make it sound like something recent.

SpitztheGreat posted:I double checked, and these numbers appear to be accurate. This should be getting a lot more attention because to me it indicates a very competitive state. In 2016 Clinton lost Texas by slightly more than 800k votes. While that's a big gap to close, if turnout is really up as much as it seems the down ballot implications could be huge. I was listening to the morning news and apparently the turnout for Dallas, Tarrant, Collin, and Denton counties is about 1.15 million for last week, or about a third of registered voters in North Texas.

They spent the two months between the election and inauguration thinking of Rube Goldberg like plans that would result in Trump not being inaugurated due to faithless electors and the marshal of the supreme court, etc. I'd love to see how they'll pull off a Trump rally as a private citizen, given that he's stiffed the bill for every venue he held a rally at before the election, continued to putting pressure on cities for his rallies when he was President, left them hanging for security costs and operations, and has alienate so many local governments that he has to now have to hold most of these things at airports. It's very likely if he tries to do a rally tour, the venues are going to ask for money upfront and then, no more rally tour. Young Freud fucked around with this message at 16:03 on Oct 25, 2020 |

Deteriorata posted:Term limits requires a constitutional amendment. They can only be removed for misconduct (impeachment). The lifetime appointment was deliberate so that they would not be replaced on a whim of political convenience by later administrations. I'd bet forced retirement at a certain age (like 65 or 70) can be a way to get around that, especially if it affects all the branches.

pacerhimself posted:This kind of got brushed over but I'm trying to figure out a not completely insane reading of this. I believe a "revolving court" means that a packed court of 11+, nine justices would still rule on cases and be rotated out per case, further diluting the conservative influence because instead of 6+ liberal judges to 5 conservatives, you could have cases where it's 6-3 liberals or even no conservative justices.

This is something more complex and it could only happen if the host company Epic got on board and redesigned the map and its encounters for them. Edit: the AOC and Ilhan Twitch Stream event was also more in line with the Animal Crossing island, although since Twitch has a lot of need to prevent harassment and has money going through it with subscriptions and tips, the company had to moderate the event for Congressional safety as well as in be in guidance with campaign regulations.

Take it up with Harry Truman, who, in a 1952 speech, decried the Republicans use of "socialism" as a scare tactic, then goes to list things like Social Security, farm price supports, and bank deposit insurance as socialism. AOC is just updating things. Since it's widely available as a meme, I've included the Snopes' page fact checking the quote... https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/truman-socialism-scare-word/

That's a big change between these, going from less than a third to almost half. So I'm guessing that if we average out these two polls, it's Trump 57%, Biden 37% The thing that is remaining consistent is the early votes, Biden's already sizeable lead growing slowly. With 90 million already voted and 60 million on Election Day, out of 150 million registered voters, we have something like 60 million early Biden votes plus a potential 22 million on Election Day, versus 29 million early Trump votes plus 34 potential Trump votes. That's a potential of 82 million Biden vs. 63 million Trump or 54.6% vs. 42%. The only way Trump can win is if the Republicans cheat.
