The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

You have not shown that any of that was the deciding factor in favor of Biden.

Dope: So however many votes Biden got due to that were invalid. Your side got away with it. Honesty dictates you own up to it.

ME: Aside from the fact Commonone shows the ultimate disposition wasn't in your favor, you have not shown that any of that was the deciding factor in Trump losing the election. You would have to show me by data that these changes cost Trump the Presidency.

You cannot support your contention with data because it didn't cost Trump the Presidency. Trump knew he had lost the Presidency before Election Day.

Further - expansive voting bills enacted in 2020

"As with most other areas of public policy, Covid-19 dominated legislative agendas on voting and elections this year. Many states took steps to protect voters and ensure safe and efficient election administration during the global pandemic.

Overall, 29 states and the District of Columbia enacted 79 different bills to expand voting access in 2020.

1 The majority of these bills expanded eligibility for and access to mail voting, while others addressed issues such as early voting, voter registration, polling place standards, and disability and language access. Even during a global pandemic, however, six states enacted laws that restrict voting access."

Now here's a map of the stated that enacted expansive laws for 2020. Note that there are plenty of red states enacting expansive laws.

So this narrative you have of the Dems cheated is false, you can't support it with data, Commonone shows you the law is fine with it, and I've shown you that plenty of red states enacted expansive voting - not just Dems. So come on now Dope - Honesty dictates you own up to it. :)

On a side note, I tested positive for Covid yesterday but I'd doing OK now.
