No worries. They'll grow a spine. Especially when they're up for re-election.
You'd better believe I'm a bitter Bernie Sanders supporter. The Dems fucked up and fucked up hard. Hopefully they'll learn that neoliberalism and maintaining the status quo isn't the way to win this election or any other one. I doubt they will, though.

18% of 100% which is actually 80% because of 20% is now 25% because I never learned to read.

Lines get shorter mid-day for voting, but not at Florida State. Leon County is a Dem +23 County.

If Trump gets 18% of the black vote and the black vote is down 20%, that equates to almost 25% of the black turnout for Trump....

Wut?

Very few states have it. Oregon (where I live), and Washington are both pushing hard for it to go nation-wide.

Is that even possible? Uncle Ruckus is a fictional character.

Well, only the state governments can decide that since they run the elections.

No worries. They'll grow a spine. Especially when they're up for re-election.

They'll ask Trump if they can borrow them just for the reelection before returning them once it's over.

Trump, of course, will say no.

Those are actually really creepy pictures.

I wonder if their were threats/violence to ensure that the women stayed "in line" and voted the way their husbands want.
"Our progress in degeneracy appears to me to be pretty rapid. As a nation, we began by declaring that "all men are created equal." We now practically read it "all men are created equal, except negroes" When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read "all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and Catholics." When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretence of loving liberty -- to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocracy." - President Abraham Lincoln.
