in theory the supreme court could use the shadow docket to issue an emergency ruling that changes a state's election result to one that favors trump. and you're right that the supreme court has increasingly abused their super-majority to blatantly implement the conservative agenda on a federal level. but also the supreme court is more and more conscious of public perception of their appearance right now than ever and i think this is going to be what restrains them from implementing a full-on coup via the shadow docket. like if the case republicans bring to the court is so weak that it's incredibly obvious that the 6 conservatives justices are just overthrowing the will of the people... i don't think the american people will just stand aside and let this happen. and that's something the conservative justices are increasingly aware of ever since dobbs. also democrats undoubtedly have some kind of contingency plan for republicans' legal challenges, potentially one that uses the president's new powers of prosecutorial immunity, so i think we will likely be hearing about the election results well into december depending on how slim the margins are.

yeah but in the event we have another bush v. gore the inevitable litigation is gonna drag this out for weeks if not months to come

honestly i don't really know? it's all very opaque and the official virginia website hasn't really told me anything. a local news site i found says that they start counting everything on election day, so perhaps all hope is not yet lost.

i'm an american overseas, registered voter in virginia. i put my absentee ballot in the embassy's drop off box in early october and i still haven't heard anything about my vote being counted i guess my vote was suppressed. hoping VA keeps its solid blue streak this year

biden didn't win because he won the RFK vote. i mean just look at georgia where black voter turnout carried biden to victory. these undecided voters were not undecided on the issue of biden vs. trump, they were undecided on whether or not they were going to show up and vote. THIS is the actually important undecided demographic, not people undecided between candidates

dems once again bending over backwards in the last weeks before the election to appeal to the imaginary category of undecided swing state voters who are teetering between trump and harris, aka, your insane libertarian uncle

so i remix feels like the true sophie tribute song. i guess she needed to do the sad original version but the remix version feels more special.

Just heard this cover for the first time yesterday and it's really great

as a 30 year old man who is trying to be a twink, i kindly ask that we refrain from phrasing that puts me in the same category as troy sivan... thank you...
