@Jason - CT We should all take advice from mentally ill and completely delusional people. I'm sure they know exactly what's best for me and my family.
Good morning Identity Evropa
As
Good Morning all
@Bjorn - MD Volvo is my favorite car company
I used to like the dorky 200s and 240s when I was little. They were pretty a pretty cool company till they got bought out by Ford. Same with Saab till GM bought 'em out.
Volvo got bought out by the Chinese, but they let them keep production in Sweden
I love Chevy tbh, other than that, Mercedes 😎 🇩🇪
I only ride alpacas
Made in Bangladesh 🇧🇩
@Drover Tom Their ownership structure may have changed since last I was keeping tabs. It's been a while, but yeah. As far as the above article's concerned, though, I was more concerned about the Google factor than anything else.
@Bjorn - MD Ya the Geely firm owns volvo. I’m excited to see what they come up with using Googles software for it, since google has been working on driverless cars for ages but never rushed them to market
*come up with as far as actually taking some of Tesla’s market
@Drover Tom Yeah, but they aren't actually driverless. It's just that now, *you're* not driving your car; *these* guys are...
Next year is the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower voyage landing in America
OOO I didn't know that
@DixieBoy76 - KY Yep 💪
Hopefully this gets struck down by the courts.
Good morning fellow non tinfoil non-autistic handcraft artists
Makin' some assumptions there, buddy... 😏
@Hakujin - CA "Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors," It's constitutional.
May appoint a number of electors.
It DOES NOT grant the state permission to dictate how they vote
It grants the state permission to appoint the electors as they see fit.
Almost all states allow the winner of the popular vote to select the delegates so I'm not sure how this is different in practice
Popular vote of their state.
The people in their state how they voted
This law, however, tells them they must vote according to how the national vote tallies. In essence, disregarding how the people they represent vote
So now the voting public in California and New York will be determining how Colorado’s electoral votes will be cast, instead of the voting public of Colorado
This should be an easy one to strike down.
I'm afraid it sounds constitutional. They could totally ignore the vote if they wanted
basically the legislature can stack the Electoral College in any way they wish
@DixieBoy76 - KY Wow,didn't know that,that is awesome to hear! 400yrs!
@Perihelion - CA it’s not Constitutional for a state to dictate how their residents vote.
Maybe I'm missing something here but it's been at upheld by the Supreme Court that the state legislature can select the Electoral College without consulting the people
Yes, that is selecting the electors
Which is constitutional
Right and the electors will vote 99% of the time as instructed
Telling them HOW to vote, disregarding the electorate for who they represent, is not Constitutional
That is voting according to their OWN states’ electorate
The electoral college doesnt represent the electorate
