…so, there’s nothing to be done about it. Great, thanks for letting me know?
If their fuckery is *known*, then **stop them!!**
From what I’ve seen, the legislature in Maine has said they will go winner take all if Nebraska does so effectively Trump gains a vote in Nebraska and loses it in Maine.
The sooner another state or two pass this, the better.

Yea I doubt it will be a tie. Someone is winning by going over 270 without NE.
The GOP must have abysmal internal polling.
Well… technically…
>No Act or joint resolution of the Legislature, **except such orders or resolutions as pertain solely to facilitating the performance of the business of the Legislature, of either branch, or of any committee or officer thereof**, or appropriate money therefor or for the payment of salaries fixed by law, shall take effect until 90 days after the recess of the session of the Legislature in which it was passed, unless in case of emergency, which with the facts constituting the emergency shall be expressed in the preamble of the Act, the Legislature shall, by a vote of 2/3 of all the members elected to each House, otherwise direct.
Since the the law would be about the selection of electors, which is business solely relegated to the legislature to perform… seems like they’d be able to do it without 90 days.
Maybe Biden should invite UN election monitors to oversee the process this year? I mean, if the Cons as *soooo* worried about election interference, this should *totally* put their minds at ease, right???
effing fascists… these people are freaking dangerous… how do reasonable people not see this?
Lindsey Graham is consistently involved in these election interference plots.
Let’s not forget that he threatened Brad Raffensperger to overturn Georgia’s results in 2020. It seems he’s more interested in meddling in other states than focusing on his own.
The absence of any criminal charges against him is a serious injustice.
He doesn’t have the votes, and they already had a special session in Nebraska this summer. There isn’t the political appetite for it. We’re staying with proportional allocation for 2024.
The fact Republicans have to lie, cheat, steal and use violence to “win” elections, shows they shouldn’t even exist as a political party.
This is wild, you can’t change this a month out from the election.
I’m so fucking sick of the electoral college propping up these shit states.
Luckily North Carolina’s 16 electoral votes will overwhelm Omaha’s one vote.
Republicans are desperate
Electoral vote heist…sounds like being a traitor to your nation and we should definitely make an example of them with a life sentence in a cell next to tRump. Can’t be soft or slow on these actions otherwise it will reoccur every election; people should fear these consequences.
I really hope Democrats watch MAGAS carefully. They WILL pull some shady sh*t to help their moronic overlord.
I gotta say though, Putin has successfully ruined the trust in American elections.
The cat-eating Haitians story is a cover for their more nefarious dealings!
What’s is Lindsey grhay doing in Nebraska
It’s pretty amazing that you can steal votes in America and it’s all good, but if you’re a legal immigrant who doesn’t eat cats you could be blown up or shot with an AR15. So proud!
As a resident in the blue dot of Nebraska I absolutely Hate that governor PIGllen is doing this.

yikes, well in Georgia tomorrow the MAGA majority state board of elections is going to vote on rules that will allow them to publicly post the names of all registered voters and require the hand counting of ballots at each polling place – this adds onto the other new rules from a few weeks ago that makes it so hey don’t have certify votes if they find “discrepancies”. the idea being that they’re either going to game a close election so Trump wins or try to void the election if it’s a landslide so Harris doesn’t get the electoral votes.
As a South Carolinian, fuck Lindsey Graham. I fucking hate that asshole.
From the Nebraska Examiner piece, that has the actual info instead of clickbait:
>Brewer, who represents north-central Nebraska, said the senators do not yet have 33 votes and said he does not see a path yet to having 33 votes. He said his best guess is 30-31 votes, which echoes Lippincott’s count.
The state senators behind the push are even saying they’re still two short.
>“I told them the Government Committee stands ready if they can find the votes, but I think the chances are very remote,” said Brewer, who chairs the committee in charge of election law.
>Pillen told the senators that he needs them to show him they have 33 firm commitments from senators to support winner-take-all before he calls a special session.
>His office had no immediate comment Wednesday night about where the effort stands. But senators attending the meeting told the Examiner he said he would prefer to call a session no later than next week.
>**Some lawyers have argued that the rules governing an election should not be changed after voting begins. Ballots get sent to Nebraskans abroad starting this week.**
Any changes made after this week will be fought tooth and nail by the best lawyers the DNC and state party can afford.
If Republicans put as much energy into making policy as they do ratfucking elections, we’d be living in a godamn Utopia.
I just read an article that said emails obtained by the Guardian revealed a behind-the-scenes network of county election officials throughout Georgia coordinating on policy and messaging to both call the results of November’s election into question and push rules favored by the election denial movement.
Then there was the NBC story on Lindsey Graham’s meeting with the Nebraska Governor and Republican legislators, on Wednesday, acting on behalf of the Trump campaign, encouraging the Governor to call a special legislative session where lawmakers could consider changing the state’s apportionment of electoral votes.
It goes back to that statement that Judge Luttig made when he testified at the January 6 hearings, “Donald Trump and his allies and supporters are a clear and present danger to American democracy. That’s not because of what happened on January 6. It is because to this very day the former president and his allies and supporters pledge that in the presidential election of 2024, if the former president or his anointed successor as the Republican party presidential candidate were to lose that election, they would attempt to overturn that 2024 election in the same way that they attempted to overturn the 2020 election, but succeed in 2024 where they failed in 2020.” Our democracy is on a knife’s edge.
I think the real moral of the story here is FUCK the fucking electoral college.
Can Maine not call a special session and do the same?
Garland do something
