Biden 156, Trump 106, so far.

No electors have strayed thus far. Arizona, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin have all cast their EVs.

I wonder who will win!

229 for Biden, 229 for Trump, with only 5 states remaining!

And Biden pulls back into the lead, 240 to 229! This could be the final push that wins it for him. Does Trump have one more comeback in him or did catching up exhaust his resources?!

We should know in the next hour to 90 minutes!

If we hadn’t been subsidizing petroleum extraction and building wealth theft by the rich from the poor into the tax code, we would have had funds available to develop wonderful spaceships in CA and elsewhere, and to do many other fine things besides.

Gee, you left out: "And look at all the money wasted in the 'War on Drugs', which was really about keeping people of color enslaved."


Let's hear your solution to the NASA "problem".

Good point, UNO. Good to see that occasionally a worthwhile idea does still penetrate.

Is there a NASA problem, per se?

If it's 56, then the GOP is right and the Dems are cheating.

Because that happened so much the last time.

No, Kid, there are no counter-examples you can cite in which electors had to be protected from members of the Democratic Party threatening them with violence, let alone a state legislator doing so.

False equivalence to try to dodge things.

Same as your prior suggestion that having a potty mouth meant it was okay to physically intimidate an individual physically and your failure to comment upon the actions of your colleagues in DC towards uninvolved citizens.

You may not be disgusted with your party, but Rep Paul Mitchell is.

Kid is trying to cope with how he’ll live in a country that burns Nazis down instead of the other way around.

Heh!

Beth Moore is how I would have thought any evangelical who had actually read of the teachings of Jesus would react to the Trump beast.   

And right on, Paul Mitchell.
