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.

Georgia’s right-wing election board ordered hand-counting of all ballots cast on Election Day, a move that critics say could cause chaos.

Any corrupt action is OK if it helps Trump. And this will open up opportunities for corruption of the election results in Georgia.

The new rule, which passed by a 3-2 vote, runs counter to legal advice from the state's top election official.

But what does he know.

The measure is the latest in a stream of right-wing election policies passed by the State Election Board over the past few months. The board has come under increasing pressure from critics already concerned that it has been rewriting the rules of the game in a key swing state to favor former President Donald J. Trump. Last month, the board granted local officials new power over certifying the election, which opponents say could potentially disrupt the process if Mr. Trump loses in November.

Critics argue that requiring hand counting, in addition to a machine count, could introduce errors and confusion into the process and potentially disrupt the custody of ballots.


All in service to the corrupt criminal.

Is it any wonder that more and more REAL Republicans are coming out against Trump? They believe in free and fair elections and respect the Constitution, something Trump certainly does NOT.
