And yet I keep thinking of how and why the USSC stepped in to the Florida recount debacle in 2000.

That totally figures. This place sucks. I mean, the mountains, trees, streams, wildlife, etc, are great. But I will gladly give them up for FREEDOM.

I am not arguing that. The original comment I was responding to wrote as if there were a national election. A lot of people think that.

This is the worst take on it- it doesn’t matter so let them get away with it....Texas must start proceedings to ban Biden/Harris from state ballot for their malfeasance on the border.

Of all the screaming insanities I have seen over the past handful of years, this is the crowning madness.

Except that it probably isn’t; it will get even worse.
