Political Suicide.

2020-11-24 21:41:12 UTC  

What is?

2020-11-24 21:42:00 UTC  

The Legislative overturning.

2020-11-24 21:42:38 UTC  

I don't think it would be, if there was good proof of something nefarious

2020-11-24 21:42:49 UTC  

I don't think all states have a provision for the legislature being able to override the Electors.

2020-11-24 21:43:08 UTC  

I think Barnes said this is something they cannot give away

2020-11-24 21:43:11 UTC  

@realz I agree. It is a Tall Order Though.

2020-11-24 21:43:12 UTC  

(that power)

2020-11-24 21:43:33 UTC  

but I may be misremembering

2020-11-24 21:43:45 UTC  

@William Dinan that is the kind of proof I want to see, otherwise I'm not interested

2020-11-24 21:44:06 UTC  

@TaLoN132. The last safeguard is Congress.

2020-11-24 21:45:06 UTC  

Understood... But that requires that no candidate gets 270 EC votes.

2020-11-24 21:45:19 UTC  

December 14th.

2020-11-24 21:45:40 UTC  

@TaLoN132. That's a different Story.

2020-11-24 21:46:17 UTC  

What story are you telling?

2020-11-24 21:47:05 UTC  

If Trump has posted he's going to work with the transitioning team... Isn't it all over?

2020-11-24 21:47:29 UTC  

@TaLoN132. Technically the Congress has to accept/ approve the EC Votes. There can be objections.

2020-11-24 21:47:52 UTC  

What am I missing here?

2020-11-24 21:48:00 UTC  

Again, another Tall Order.

2020-11-24 21:48:05 UTC  

That tells me it's over.

2020-11-24 21:48:48 UTC  

@Pantsdonkey. I don't believe in Political Absolutes.

2020-11-24 21:50:07 UTC  

Would that require a straight majority or is it one vote per state (like the contingency of having the house decide when no candidate gets 270)?

2020-11-24 21:51:26 UTC  

per delegation I think

2020-11-24 21:51:29 UTC  

The objection would have to come from one member of Both Houses. Then elected upon.

2020-11-24 21:51:29 UTC  

@William Dinan, you just advanced to level 3!

2020-11-24 21:52:31 UTC  

@realz. Objections and Votes are very different.

2020-11-24 21:52:56 UTC  

ah yea probably anyone can object

2020-11-24 21:53:03 UTC  

but they vote to uphold the objection or not

2020-11-24 21:53:13 UTC  

Yes

2020-11-24 21:53:51 UTC  

That would be the entire House on Objections.

2020-11-24 21:55:14 UTC  

That would be in the New Congress.

2020-11-24 21:55:41 UTC  

House of objections seems like a good title

2020-11-24 21:57:16 UTC  

Unless there is some real Kracken. This looks like a Done Deal.

2020-11-24 22:02:51 UTC  

Its been an interesting term. Starting with cofefe and ending on kraken.

2020-11-24 22:03:15 UTC  

But 🍊🧍‍♂️🤬 amirite!

2020-11-24 22:03:30 UTC  

maybe the real term was the friends we made along the way?

2020-11-24 22:06:28 UTC  

I'm just watching people continue to eat their way through a pile of turds, expecting to trip across a Snickers which becomes less and less like it was ever there. It's almost like they have developed a taste for poo for its own sake.

2020-11-24 22:08:00 UTC  

@Zuluzeit Perfect! Enjoying the view is very good for your mental health!

2020-11-24 22:08:12 UTC  

Its why I invented the MANPMOFF
