I work for an insurance company and every all employee meeting we hear about the desire to fight systematic oppression, what we are doing to combat that, and how we can promote diversity. The CEO even worried about how we don't have a good diversity of thought and how we need to make people more comfortable being themselves. But throughout the whole meeting it's heavily implied that conservative voices aren't wanted. He even made a comment that implied trump is a joke. Not to mention we won't go back to the office until 2021. Just needed to vent where people will get me.
Edit: just made it a bit more vague so i don't accidently dox myself. I trust you guys, but i'd rather be careful.
They won't even be done counting till January.
So when the electoral college convenes in mid December for the actual presidential election, they do what exactly?
This actually brings up an interesting constitutional question. Amendment 20 says that the term of the president and VP end at noon on January 20, and the terms of their successors begins at the same time. But what if there aren’t any successors because they haven’t been chosen yet? The office of the President can’t be vacant, and yet there’s nobody to fill it
Rush was saying last week that in this exact scenario, the speaker of the house (Pelosi) gets to select the President. Can anyone confirm this?
All representatives are up for re-election, and their term ends on Jan 3. If they are still counting ballots in Commiefornia then Nasty Nancy might not be there.
Although who am I kidding, Commiefornia will claim to have counted every vote-by-mail in pleanty of time and will have all of their electors and representatives in place...
They are going to delay the count in PA, MI, WI, OH, and FL.
If you read the 20th amendment, it states that if no president is selected by Jan 20th, then congress decides the president. In section 4, it seems to state that the House decides the president and the Senate decides the VP.
First question, probably vote whatever way they've been paid to, or someone challenges the whole thing and they reschedule, idk. That could be the actual play for jamming up the system with mail in ballots.
As for the second, 22nd only applies to the president and the vice-president. It doesn't apply to the speaker. It would not be a perfect claim, and there would be a challenge I am sure, but Trump and Pence would be required to vacate either way. Deep State would be happy no matter what debacle is unleashed.
I think most states require them to vote for whatever party that state went to. But some blue states are trying to cheat by requiring them to vote for whoever wins the whole country's popular vote. (So basically reeeing that Trump lost the popular vote by 1% and still won the election.)
It used to not be like that. The electoral college used to be literally just educated and informed voters that the masses selected to vote for them, and the delegates could vote however they wanted. It was intended to combat politicians just using demagoguery to win.
At some point it became bound to the two-party system.
The electoral college meets to elect the President. Even if the individual votes are not finished counting (they never really are) the states have to send their electors. This is all that is really important, and it's why the Ds want to abolish it.
ok fine, im hopeful the narrative will be a new hysterical focus on the outcome and not the current bullshit everyone is already burnt on. edit: but if I felt like being a dick I would say the "pandemic" is already over bc you need a healthy steady death count to actually be called a pandemic, what we have now is a recurring high infection rate with a death rate disappointing the deep staters. oh and again its just my opinion. But FURTHER, their plan is to NOT be done counting in Jan so they pull all the COG bullshit... we'll see, but you can be sad all you like
