If it is Murphy vs Porter: Murphy wins by the skin of his teeth

If it is Murphy vs Richardson: Richardson wins by a small yet comfortable margin

If it is Dayton vs Richardson: Richardson wins by a good size margin (pretty much a repeat of 2016)

If it is Dayton vs Porter (god forbid): Dayton wins by a small yet comfortable margin

Porter definitely would win against Murphy. there are many scenarios in which Porter becomes president and I think many people are underestimating him and his supporters.

The first time Pelosi wore 'the impeachment dress' she had this rocking Mace of the House of Representatives brooch on and I'd love to get a picture of that with Simone's head on it so I have a more "Simone as Speaker" image to refer back to.

Oh no! I don't think I have the strength for a seamless face merge like that. I'd have to change hair color, skin tone, chin shape. I'm new to it, but I really like the compliments XD. I could possibly do it, but I'd have to find one where Nancy doesn't have that ugly little sliver of hair in from of her right eye, that also has the mace of HOR.

I think the best courses of action would be to muscle or push through current bills being voted on, as to then push through some of this Economic legislation.

Hi!

It's me, Sare.

Or Saren.

Or Sar if you're weird.


Or Sarenium if you're my digital mother.


Over the past few weeks I've truly enjoyed the joys of playing with wiki-style articles and have received much appreciation and acclaim for my very irregular editing schedule. Other than Kelvi, who already has enough to do with Republican polling, I am more than prepared to help/teach others to help me out with our wikis. Right now there are two main wikis.

> https://iiwiki.us/wiki/2020_United_Stat ... s_(LOTF_RP) <
> https://iiwiki.us/wiki/2020_United_Stat ... n_(LOTF_RP) < {{ Both links need to be copy pasted because that last bracket isn't including in the URL for some reason }}

I want to create pages for the House and begin porting in legislation that's passed. I played around with this;

> https://iiwiki.us/wiki/Relief_Act_2019 <

... and I'd like to have much more happening. The main issue isn't so much that I can't do it all alone (I could spend many hours on this whole wiki, make it super pretty and have it ready for happy use eventually), the issue is more that I can't update it as regularly as I'd like NOR with as much detail and aestheticism I'd like.

It doesn't take much to learn, it's really just copy-pasting templates where needed into new wiki pages and going from there. The shit looks confusing (as Lozy learned) behind the scenes, but it has a rhythm to it once you get it.

I finally understand Boris Johnson and why people think he's crazy. From what I understand, he came into the position with a majority, but lost his majority because he fired so many people from his party or some thing like that right?

He started his premiership with a hung Parliament, and then that was cut further after the whip was removed from a group of MPs for voting against the government on Brexit and then we won the largest Conservative majority since 1987 in the December 2019 general election.

Oh! That is a lot more understandable, I had gone down the youtube rabbithole and ended up near Stephen Colbert land and he had Graham Norton on the show and gave an explanation similar to that. I'm just glad that Conservatism is growing in popularity over there.
