This is the same bs Bacon started peddling too. “Keep me in for checks and balances” now that he sees how truly tight the race has become.

In Michigan, Kristina Karamo, the Republican nominee for secretary of state, sued the top election official in Detroit last month, seeking to toss absentee ballots not cast in person with an ID, even though that runs contrary to state requirements. When asked in a recent court hearing, Karamo’s lawyer declined to say why the suit targets Detroit, a heavily Democratic, majority-Black city, and not the entire state. Republicans sue to disqualify thousands of mail ballots in swing states www.washingtonpost.com/elections/2022/11/07/gop-sues-reject-mail-ballots/At least Kristina Karamo didn't get her way.

Well this sucks. 'Republican officials and candidates in at least three battleground states are pushing to disqualify thousands of mail ballots after urging their own supporters to vote on Election Day, in what critics are calling a concerted attempt at partisan voter suppression. In Pennsylvania, the state Supreme Court has agreed with the Republican National Committee that election officials should not count ballots on which the voter neglected to put a date on the outer envelope — even in cases when the ballots arrive before Election Day. Thousands of ballots have been set aside as a result, enough to swing a close race. In Michigan, Kristina Karamo, the Republican nominee for secretary of state, sued the top election official in Detroit last month, seeking to toss absentee ballots not cast in person with an ID, even though that runs contrary to state requirements. When asked in a recent court hearing, Karamo’s lawyer declined to say why the suit targets Detroit, a heavily Democratic, majority-Black city, and not the entire state. And in Wisconsin, Republicans won a court ruling that will prevent some mail ballots from being counted when the required witness address is not complete.' Republicans sue to disqualify thousands of mail ballots in swing states www.washingtonpost.com/elections/2022/11/07/gop-sues-reject-mail-ballots/Karamo is a freaking lunatic. No way her challenge wins. Eta- ha! Just saw your post elle. Thank goodness!

I agree with Bluey but I think Puppy Dog Pals and Muppet Babies make me want to enact violence on others based on how obnoxious the theme songs and voice actors are. lol.

Hi! I’m here too, excited to be among likeminded anxious people lol. I’m stressed to the max. I’ve sent postcards, I’ve stalked/messaged all my contacts through the Reach app, tonight I’m running around placing signs at polling stations…..
I’m hopeful! I’m pessimistic. It depends on the moment. These wild swings are exhausting lol

These are my Monday UOs lol It is a standing rule in our house that if mom is around, neither of those shows are allowed. lol. I'm glad they have adult fans in other houses that aren't mine. I should note that I don't have anything against Ms. Goldberry's voice. It is the composition of that theme song that grates me more than anything else. It's been the same since we were kids (not her of course but the song itself) and I hated it then too lol.

I'm conflicted about the amendment for IL's constitution. I know it's for state worker's rights to unionize, but they already have those on a federal level. So what's it really doing for anyone?
