Ranked choice makes a lot of sense. It is a toss up which system is better but ranked choice has its merits.

Both houses. That is 67 senators and 291 representatives. Good luck….

This if the situation. It looks like the Republicans will control the House with about a 98% certainty at this point. It looks like the Democrats will control the Senate with about a 98% certainty at this point. The Republican minimum goal was to take at least one house. That would effectively kill any legislation for the next 2 years without their consent. Any legislation will have to be bipartisan. The next goal would be to take both houses. The benefit of taking the Senate would be that any nominations by Biden would have to get Republican approval. For the most part that is not that big of a deal unless Biden gets to nominate another Supreme Court justice. So the Republicans appear to have taken the House but it isn’t official yet. If that holds up, they have met their goal of ending unrestricted Democrat legislation. They almost had that anyway with the filibuster in the Senate but the Democrats kept pushing to end the filibuster. With controlling either house it ends all doubt. It is assumed that if the Republicans take the House that Kevin McCarthy will be elected as the Speaker of the House. I have seen discussions tonight about a narrow win in the House like if the Republicans only held a 5 vote majority, would give him a hard time keeping 3 RINO Republicans from switching sides on some votes and allowing a bill to pass without Republican approval. That would be incorrect. No bill can come up for a vote without the approval of the Speaker. So even if the Democrats technically had the votes to narrowly pass a bill, McCarthy could kill it by not bringing it up for a vote. Even if McCarthy is able to get bills passed easily, it won’t matter s the Senate will not pass the safe bill without bipartisan support. If the Republicans did manage to ram a bill through in both houses, Biden could simply veto it. So the bottom line has always been to take at least one house while understanding that even with both houses, the Republicans cannot get a law enacted without Biden’s approval. It appears that the Republicans will achieve that goal and effectively kill any free spending without them approving until at least the next presidential election. Unless Biden gets to nominate another Supreme Court justice, the Democrats keeping the Senate is almost nothing more than pride. In my opinion…..

After I turned my card in, I told the workers that we have now gone back to the old punch cards but instead of using the stylus to punch out the corresponding tab, the computer does it for us. They said something like like, yep.

Why is Chicago, Miami, Maricopa County and other Democrat strong locations that seem to continually have trouble??

It’s a good thing we got away from the old punch card ballots to a modern system that is foolproof. They have only had 22 years to work out the bugs…..

I voted at 7:30am. Jefferson County has their new publicized voting machines and system. There was one person voting when I entered and then it was me and 3 workers. And…. they had no record of me by address, name, date of birth, etc. Questions like, how long have you lived at that address? 24 years. Hmmmm….. I told them that I vote in every election and have been to that location for those 20+ years. Apparently the new system lost my voter registration. Hmmmm….. But after about 15 minutes and the poll workers on the phone with the county clerk for several minutes, they found my registration and I got to vote. 😆

Fingers crossed…… 🙃

This article is posted on the website for the National Institute of Health which is under the Department of Health and Human Services just like the CDC. It is a US government website and not a political blog. Here are a couple of excerpts from the article: ”For the first time in American history a president, governors, mayors, hospital administrators and federal bureaucrats are determining medical treatments based not on accurate scientifically based or even experience based information, but rather to force the acceptance of special forms of care and “prevention”—including remdesivir, use of respirators and ultimately a series of essentially untested messenger RNA vaccines.” ”Neither Anthony Fauci, the CDC, WHO nor any medical governmental establishment has ever offered any early treatment other than Tylenol, hydration and call an ambulance once you have difficulty breathing. This is unprecedented in the entire history of medical care as early treatment of infections is critical to saving lives and preventing severe complications. Not only have these medical organizations and federal lapdogs not even suggested early treatment, they attacked anyone who attempted to initiate such treatment with all the weapons at their disposal—loss of license, removal of hospital privileges, shaming, destruction of reputations and even arrest.” ”Worse still is the actual designing of medical articles for promoting drugs and pharmaceutical products that involve fake studies, so-called ghostwritten articles” [Hidden Content]

Ability to speak clearly is like mean tweets. Identity and appearance is what’s important……

Yep…. BG’s argument against Walker should then be the same argument against Fetterman. Any bets on BG believing that Walker should lose but Oz should win?

I am thinking of giving up my guns, paying higher taxes, being forced to buy an electric vehicle after gasoline availability is artificially restricted, trying to be forced to take a vaccine and paying 50% higher prices on food because a woman claimed that Walker paid for an abortion 15 years ago. That seems like a (ir)rational decision.

Oh, I am against him then….. 🤣🤣🤣

I care how he votes and not how he speaks. Hitler was a great orator and inspired much of his country to engage in almost unspeakable acts. He is right up there with the most despicable people in history… but he sure could fire up a crowd. Sorry but I don’t vote on debating skills. I am not sure what there is to admit. If a Democrat said, I am against all gun control, I am against abortions, I am for opening up American fossil fuels production, I think spending should either be cut or at least severely curtailed…. I might be voting for him.
