@smith_cade9@realPrestonHill Your missing my point, Atlanta was more democratic in 24 than in 20, despite the national environment worsening for dems. Ossoff won by 20 in a +15 year, which means Georgia is around the same place as Minnesota, and getting more democratic. Even Kemp has no chance.
@smith_cade9@realPrestonHill If Atlanta, which already dominates Georgia voting, is moving left so fast that it beats out a national shift then the state won't be red or swing for long, which is what we saw last week. We saw the same in Joco Kansas, with it acting as the bulwark of dem votes.
@smith_cade9@realPrestonHill The 24 election where despite the national shift to the right the Atlanta suburbs moved left. Same with Johnson County in Kansas, both of which moved even harder to the left this year.
@JoeMoss You fucks can feel it can't you? The feeling that once we make you actually compete for the popular vote you'll be locked out of the presidency for decades
@ScottBalkum I mean, I hope this makes you laugh but when the average voter sees trump concerned about the ballroom or about the reflecting pool while they struggle it pisses them off, which is what happened a week ago. This behavior is why you lost and it's why you'll lose in 28 ๐คท
@Heritage_Action Pretty sure you're reading this chart wrong, the 41 and 43 are percent of respondents with that label, and the numbers with the bars are who they support. So 9% of republicans support democrats, as do 73% of independents
@fightorflighYT@TroyMOlson Texas has been moving more democratic for 20 years now bud, Talarico (and Hinojosa, and every other statewide office, and the state house) is just the first time, won't be the last
@redstones395757@CornfedLeftist They won't tell you this but that provision is subject to serious debate and the prevailing opinion is that there are implicit limits and that those exceptions can't infringe on other parts of the constitution. Congress cant just exempt a law, if the could someone wouldve done so
@CornfedLeftist This is just wrong. The courts power of judicial review arises naturally out of stare decisis. The Supreme Court says x law is unconstitutional and lower courts are obliged to follow that precedent. Abolishing this would require fundamentally reforming common law.
@Zacbunchanumbrs@Mr_AllSmiles@SpaceToast87 Not require interstate coordination*, it would still require in state coordination and would be picked up on by poll observers or result in lawsuits.
@Zacbunchanumbrs@Mr_AllSmiles@SpaceToast87 It isn't safer though, that's just patently untrue whether you want to believe it or not. A massive fraud campaign (which would be required to flip a PV election and not require coordination) would still require plenty of coordination and be likely to be caught.
