Election 2020 Election 2020: It's (almost) over! (maybe...possibly...ahh who are we kidding, it's 2020!)

But why? I am arguing against a civil war and saying the idea is silly because the law is still on your side even if most of the Judges aren't and the infrastructure the enemy created gives you an instawin if you can take it over and they built it to be extremely user friendly. Everything I've said has been about how you don't need to do what other countries have had to do. So Burgerlanders should be very optimistic and zealous and filled with energy. Why would I be banned for that? Or are the mods that cucked?

Stop being a known troublemaker.

"never talk to other conservatives on your off hours or you're a larper!" Like how long do you think it takes to type a post bruh

I think it helps that to some extent America is too big to fail per se. Here me out. America is an entire half continent with 50 states each large enough to be their own countries. Even if the federal government were to fall tomorrow the state governors especially in red states can pick up the slack heck, the states that are mainly suffering now as America is falling is heavy city centric blue leaning states. It's why people are fleeing to texas and Florida of all places.

America is not Rome it won't just collapse if the white house falls.

Rome didn't all collapse when their central government fell either. The Eastern Roman Empire kept going until 1453.

Not that clever because it doesnt actually have anything to do with the point I made and more cringey cause of the spelling my dude.

They're trying to fucking do it again.

Welp to all the Radio Talk Show hosts that said people had to go and Vote for the two Senate candidates and not deal with the Dominion problem. We freaking told you this would happen.

Pence isn't going to do it, Biden will be president, calling it now.

 

[Greengrass]

Pence doesn't have the power to reject electors, his role is purely to read the certified results.

Pretty sure that's illegal on several levels...

It is not, it is the standard practice everywhere.

"Standard practice"


That's the funniest shit I've heard all week.

 

[Vaermina]

Actually it's not.

In the case of Voting system failure, which shouldn't be possible in the first place since the local superintendent is supposed to go around checking each and every voting machine before the election begins, they are supposed to give the voters specialized paper ballots, not just hold onto their normal ballots to scan later.

 

[Greengrass]

From the Georgia Poll Worker manual on the official Georgia Secretary of State website.

There is no special extra ballot, the original ballot is held onto to be scanned later.

You guys actually think there's that One Weird Trick which lets you do whatever you want in a court of law, don't you? Perhaps you'll start talking about how Trump becomes president if the flag in the House chamber has a gold fringe on it?

Georgia state election code.

If an emergency situation makes utilizing the electronic ballot markers impossible or impracticable, as determined by the election superintendent, the poll officer shall issue the voter an emergency paper ballot that is to be filled out with a pen after verifying the identity of the voter and that the person is a registered voter of the precinct. Emergency paper ballots shall not be treated as provisional ballots, but instead shall be placed into the scanner in the same manner that printed ballots in the polling place are scanned. The election superintendent shall cause each polling place to have a sufficient amount of emergency paper ballots so that voting may continue uninterrupted if emergency circumstances render the electronic ballot markers or printers unusable. For any primary or general election for which a state or federal candidate is on the ballot, a sufficient amount of emergency paper ballots shall be at least 10% of the number of registered voters to a polling place. The poll manager shall store all emergency ballots in a secure manner and ensure that all used and unused emergency ballots are accounted for. All unused emergency ballots shall be placed into a secure envelope and sealed such that the envelope cannot be opened without breaking such seal

Looks like the Republicans finnaly grew a pair.

 

[GoldRanger]

I'm coming out of haitus because this thread is open (haitus was mostly to protest it being closed,) and to point out to you that you're talking to a guy who has been telling this board that Biden will be the next president for several months now.

So I don't think he fits in with this group which you refer to as "you guys."

But I'll let @GoldRanger handle his own business from here.

What? No I haven't. I thought he had a decent chance right up until the supreme court shot him down, from there on it's obvious that the battle has been lost.

 

[Greengrass]

Georgia state election code.

Section 11(b) on that document goes through the same procedure I linked from the ballot workers manual.

No extra emergency ballot, the original ballot is saved for either when the machine is fixed or replaced, or by using a different machine.

 

[Zachowon]

How about I ask someone who is working the voting stations? Since yu both are arguing
