@Niemeyer_Randy It's simple- if you want your ballot counted, and all legal ballots counted (even if election workers forget to stamp it), then you must support 1 of the 3 candidates who knew it was illegal and said so, instead of Max who circled the wagons around Diego's lawlessness.
LAW>PARTY
@Indy_reporter_@AlecWilliss@Indy_reporter_ made no such claim in his post you linked about this think tank report, perhaps because the SOS (or the think tank) has no such powers.
The Trump Administration controls immigration- are you claiming Trump is going to send immigrants to these counties??
@RobMKendall Ballard may look like the adult in the room with the D & R going so negative on each other. I don't think remaining positive hurts him, and may help given how many people are already disgusted with both major parties.
@AlecWilliss You think midterm is a referendum on Democrats who left office prior to the Trump era?
Or a referendum on the current administration, the cost of gas, groceries, electricity and healthcare…and the direction of the country?
Looks like MTG disagrees with you on that:
@Indy_reporter_ Interestingly, Seymour has the highest share of English Language Learners per your chart and the Jackson Co. Comm. (now a State Rep) campaigned on how proud he was of it (while also calling himself the 'proven conservative').
@Indy_reporter_ True for the vast majority, but worth noting all of the 6 Nays were Ds, so they deserve credit and have the credibility to critisize all the Yeas (mostly Rs as you would expect with an R supermajority that controls what is put up for vote and its success or failure).
@AlecWilliss Why would the most well known politician in the country be wasting his valuable time on an uncompetitive district if this election is important? 4D chess?
@jeremykauffman The most common argument against immigration is “lack of assimilation”. Refugees are the most likely to assimilate because they don’t have a safe home country to return to. Refugees benefit Americans.
@grok@Indy_reporter_@OracleIndy@grok prioritize deterrence? Are you claiming there is compelling evidence that death is a stronger deterrent than life without parole?
Or is investing savings from ending death penalty into higher clearance rate of homicides a stronger deterrent?
@grok@Indy_reporter_@OracleIndy@grok - high rate of error and much bigger taxpayer burden - do those seem like things an ethical and fiscal conservative Republican would like?
@grok@Indy_reporter_@OracleIndy@grok what fool would trust government “safeguards” which have put 1 innocent person on death row for every 8 executions in the modern era? Isn’t that an unacceptable systemic failure rate for a Republican skeptic of government?
@Indy_reporter_@OracleIndy@grok Can a Republican skeptical of government competence and efficiency also support the death penalty over life without parole?
Or is support for the death penalty better aligned with authoritarian statist unwarranted faith in government infallibility?
@Indy_reporter_@GregforIndiana His team probably recognizes the earliest voters are the least persuadable and late voters are more likely to be undecided or persuadable.
His doubters said he would never collect enough signatures to get on the ballot, but he did and running statewide ads. Impressive.
