The depth of the stupidity of these authoritarian, MAGA Republicans is ASTOUNDING!!

They are refusing to certify elections in several of their countries.. BUT deadline is approaching and without their votes Democrats will be winners even though Republicans actually won 😝😜🤪

@OldCountryDoctor @singlemaltgirl: That's why I get paid the big money, doctor. 🖖

@J_Windrow i am of the opinion that ranked voting is going to be our best way out of this mess, nationwide. it allows us to better vote by policy not party.

#politics Alaska U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski wins reelection
Alaska U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski wins reelection
Murkowski beat Trump-backed challenger Kelly Tshibaka by more than seven points after ranked choice votes were tabulated.

***

Again, ranked voting achieved the most moderate candidate.

Murkowski (her father is an Alaskan political legend) was almost assured of winning because she won before as an independent due to ranked voting.

@OldCountryDoctor

neither do the people who pull the lever for that "candidate"

@OldCountryDoctor
The GOP found themselves a "useful idiot" in Walker. They only care that their manifestos are carried out, and they figure they can manipulate him all day. Now that Walker doesn't get them the majority though, I am really curious how much effort the GOP will put into his campaign.

@singlemaltgirl @OldCountryDoctor: Some are genuinely stupid. (I mean legit, truly stupid.) Some are just conditioned by their upbringing and surroundings to be/think/feel the way they do. Some are genuinely villainous, malign, corrupted. Some, as the fella said, "just to want watch the world burn".

@OldCountryDoctor
White supremacy is a hell of a drug, apparently.

@OldCountryDoctor i find it shocking that peeps voted for bobo, mtg, or oz. but they do. it's the oddest thing. the disparity in quality of candidates is so vast...yet the votes are so close. i have no understanding of 🇺🇸 voters. i truly don't.

@OldCountryDoctor I grew grew up in Fredericksburg, VA, where Jefferson drafted the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom. There was a monument to this on the grounds of the elementary school I went to. At the time, separation of church and state was a revolutionary idea. It truly saddens me that so many people have turned their backs to it.

@KamloopsBob @OldCountryDoctor And what you just typed is why people further south hate on Virginia for being left, this country is mentally ill at this point.

#Media (looking @msnbc #MorningJoe) need to stop using #TFG photos in "official, powerful" roles. Instead, use photos that aren't flattering. Voters see enough of that & they'll turn on #Trump. #Politics #ProDemocracy #antiMAGA

@OldCountryDoctor Always trying to put a thumb on the scale. Look how America's youth voted? Dammit Get Greene and Boebert on the vote starts at 30 campaign, do it now!!!

The easiest math problem is

"It has been X says since the last mass shootings in America. Solve for X"

Because X always equals 0.

Stop fucking voting for republicans and pass sensible gun legislation and social programs to address poverty, education and hate!
