    One can only hope enough people understand the value of divided government. In any event, if the D's win control, it will only last two years and they are hardly a united party.

      Seems unlikely. They're individually coded and tied to registered voters.

      Also, don't we just log in to the Dominion machines from Croatia and change some numbers?

      I'm just telling you what the guy's staff said when they thought no one was listening.

      It’s a homeless shelter that multiple people use as their residence. Without knowing the law, definitely seems like a grey area. Are you able to vote if you’re homeless? How?

          I understand the value of divided government but the difference between 51-49 one way or the other isn’t huge in terms of policy. Bigger difference when it comes to judges or just what’s allowed to come up for a vote (e.g. the 2k stimulus).

            It really does feel like there’s space for a centrist party and one each for the loony toons from both sides.

              If we had a parliamentary system we’d probably have one or two.

                  2k stimulus is not necessarily a bad idea but it doesn’t need to go to people who haven’t lost their jobs. Not clear what Biden will do in terms of refining who gets it.

                    About the GA runoff, was a blue or red shift particularly expected based on early/day off voting patterns and/or counting priority?

                    Anyone know?

                      @jon-nyc

                      I’m specifically referring to the drift during the count. Example, everyone knew PA would start out red and shift blue-ward, and everyone expected the opposite in NC.

                        And homeless shelters are where the democrats have been caught handing out cash to get people to sign ballots that had already been filled out.

                          Oh, lord no. I was referring back to Trump’s first two years and the challenges he faced with all three branches in GOP control.

                            With 45% of the vote in the Dems are both up by ~9 pts.

                            Anyone know if this is representative? Or are we expecting a red shift?
