@ToruOkada @LnzyHou No more Red Mirage or Blue Shift. Think of it. No more white knuckle election watching.

Announce the full results. Then analyze later.

No more treating elections like sports coverage.

@ToruOkada @LnzyHou Slippery slope argument.

You could obfuscate the counts such that no person knows enough to reveal, and make the penalty severe enough no one would brave the attempt.

There are myriad ways to interfere with elections already. "We can't improve this outdated practice because someone might misuse it" fails to convince.

Here's a better idea: Don't reveal ANY results until all are available. That screws up the media horserace coverage though.

@peeppeepcircus Not caring about the campaign of Nikki Haley maybe?

I mean, I wouldn't do anything to help Nikki either. She wants a lot of the same things, just in a more diplomatic wrapper.

@Faay AND Local.

AND School Board, too.

And continue at the next election, not just when a presidential election happens at the same time.

I swear I never worried about making every single election in the past, but the concerted attack on books and education means no minor elections.

@JV3MJD I am not clear. He doesn't look like a drag queen?

@LKNWoman I used to be Independent, voting split every election and voting D, R, and even L for President over the years.

After the performance of Pub Congress failing to even put up even token resistance to Trump I vowed to never vote Pub all the way down to dog catcher ever again.

I leaned D slightly before 2016, but seeing people I thought rational support that clown just because of an R by his name. SMDH

Hope the GOP can just go away. Leave the Dems to split into two.

@LnzyHou Those laws are so stupid. (Nearly all.states, if not all,.are.like.that.

If we.have early voting, we should start counting them as they are received.

I can see why they wouldn't reveal the count till election day. But why make it slower.than it needs to be?

I don't know if they were a couple, but I could imagine she let him walk by himself with phone for company and hoped she votes for herself as well.

Later, I was still biking on a local walk-bike trail around a park and was approaching an older man walking, BURIED in his phone. (Pet peeve-why walk outside and never look up? ) I slowed and gave warnings, he is still buried. Then he meandered in front of me as I was passing. Came to a complete stop before hitting him and yelled HEY! He looked up and it was an older Asian man wearing a Trump hat!

I passed and an older Asian lady was yards behind him. She saw my shirt and smiled.

I was biking around my neighborhood yesterday evening in my Harris-Walz shirt. I rode by three younger black guys talking and one yelled, "You are liable to get beat up wearing that around here." I yelled back, "White Privilege."

I thought it was a little funny, but they were screaming laughing.

@Agatha @carmen She's a Russia asset. Her personal behavior and investments do not align with Green Party and it is disappointing there is no party leadership here to call her off.

A complete fraud.

@Bix I had a phone dialer calculator. It had a speaker on the back to play the tones for the numbers stored into whatever phone you had handy.

Before cell phones nerds were extra resourceful.

I remembered most numbers anyway, but I loved looking up a contact and playing the tones into a phone just to show off.

I think it was from Sharper Image.

@FrankCannon @LnzyHou It is comical when RW Christian Nationalists attack Kamala Harris as ultra-Left Communist Marxist, just stringing words together they couldn't define at gunpoint.

ACTUAL Communists and Marxists would take issue with that characterization for her.😃

Many equate socialism with the excesses of China and USSR. But for authoritarians the political system is just a means to maintain power. Right or Left is irrelevant when absolute power is in play.

@aasteppin Is that from Jonathan Livingston Seagull? ( the pictures, I mean )

@LiberalLibrarian Seriously.

This is not your moment.

Maybe if we had RCV then the danger wouldn't be so much. But the way our current elections work no rational person should allow themselves to be a potential spoiler.

@crimsonblue I am continually in awe of how little work and merit have to do with those who rise to the C suite in companies.

It is more correlated to political positioning and a little bit of flexible ethics than competence and vision. That "flexible " is usually flexed in all the bad ways.

@FrankCannon @LnzyHou A funny thing about Americans is how oblivious most of us are to how skewed our politics are to the right on the world stage.

Even most Democrats would be considered conservative in comparison to the spectrum in other countries.
