Early Voting Totals Not Looking Great For Republicans So Far

[Dr. Phosphorous]

guno! Alright!

You're still a horse's ass, but OK.

I accept your acknowledgement that Cruz is a Nazi and a pussy who licks Trump's balls while Trump insults his wife.

Otay.

 

[The Duke]

Don't need no rhyme or reason, Fuck You, guno!

Don't need no rhyme or reason, Fuck You, guno!

Nazis never do. They get what they want through violence and intimidation.

You're a bad person, like all Trump supporters.

 

[The Duke]

They call him Dr. guno!
Just call him Dr. guno!
You know it's Doctor GooO---nOoOo!
Seriously, never have I wished for a cultsmasher appearance more than before right now. That's how bad guno is.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Except he didn't....you Repug Nazis can't win the popular vote anymore.

Beat her like the corrupt old sot she is.

 

[para bellum]

No they didn't, gomer. Further evidence that you aren't really educated.

The Constitution says absolutely nothing about a candidate winning a presidential election, yet losing the popular vote. The founding fathers never intended that.

You obviously don't know what the Framers thought.

They did not trust direct democracy, and put in several checks and balances against what de Tocqueville called "the tyranny of the majority". (Many of which have been discarded over the years)

That is why every State has 2 Senators, they gave Senators 6-year terms, and had them appointed by State Legislatures. The Electoral College is another safeguard to protect the minority. They did not want the populous States to be able to overwhelm the less populous ones.

Madison described the problem of direct democracy in terms of "factions" in Federalist 10:

"If a faction consists of less than a majority, relief is supplied by the republican principle, which enables the majority to defeat its sinister views by regular vote. It may clog the administration, it may convulse the society; but it will be unable to execute and mask its violence under the forms of the Constitution. When a majority is included in a faction, the form of popular government, on the other hand, enables it to sacrifice to its ruling passion or interest both the public good and the rights of other citizens. To secure the public good and private rights against the danger of such a faction, and at the same time to preserve the spirit and the form of popular government, is then the great object to which our inquiries are directed."

What does that have to do with anything? As our forefathers very thoughtfully decided, the popular vote doesn’t win presidential elections in this REPRESENTATIVE REPUBLIC. Pointing out that Democrats often win the popular vote is like complaining that your team should have won the football game because they had more first downs and more total yards but not as many points.

An extra 100 thousand votes were found in the voter lists in the state of Michigan. According to official data, 8 million people are eligible to vote in the state, but by counting the voter rolls local media found out that 100 thousand dead souls appeared in the state from somewhere.
Kamala rules!

His education didn’t teach him this, thus, in his mind, it simply cannot be true. These people only regurgitate what they have been told. They don’t have the ability or desire to think on their own.

I think it's more sinister than that. Some of them have been taught not to think on their own.

 

[Couchpotato]

You said something dumb. It was disproved. We all saw.

There's no "advantage" to voting earlier. A vote cast on Oct 5 counts the same as a vote on Oct 10, 15, 20, 30 or Nov 5.

That's disgusting. That's not a secure vote. That's baked in cheating.
Lemme tell ya summin', even in that state, if they go too far with it,
Heaven have mercy on their souls because Americans most likely will
not. I have serious doubts they can gaslight everyone.

That's a democrat specialty
