“and not at all counter to everything they have ever claimed they stood for.”

I’ve been critical of many of your statements, motives, intentions & find your political beliefs detestable, but this is the first time I can honestly say that your post, or at least this part of it is just plain stupid.

Really? The right hasn't always claimed to detest federal overreach on general principle? GTFO of here with this bullshit.

Or we don't consider it overreach. You know what I do detest and consider an overreach?  The Federal f#cking government having a f#cking central bank that can print endless dollars.  Or a f#cking government that can run up 39 trillion dollars and also magically print money.  Making sure actual f#cking citizens are voting isn't on the list of sh#t we care about.  Putting it kindly 😁

That's perfectly fine. But from now on, stop couching your complaints in bullshit dishonest terms of federalism. Just admit you hate the policy and don't care what level it's implemented on.

“everything they have ever claimed they stood for”, lol.  How many conservatives do you know advocating the federal gov’t to cede control of national security or the military to the states?  Should we go back to state militias? Bank bailouts?  Crime bills?  Sending troops in to cities?  To say “mostly”, or “generally” would ring true, but your attempt to portray people that want federal involvement in election security as selling out everything they’ve ever claimed to stand for is stooopid.  Sometimes the federal gov’t needs to step in, & conservatives are ok with that if it serves the interests of American citizens.🙂

He's a populist, not a conservative. You need to remember that.

The Federal vs. state powers always fascinate me and I think both sides of the aisle contradict themselves as it relates to their views on the role of the Federal government.

I apologize then. I thought you gave me shit during the SVB 23 collapse and assumed you were for bailouts in 08.  It looks like only @twenty is a welfare queen.

Looks like the Supreme Court is leaning towards denying late arriving ballots.  I think there should be restrictions but, to me. if the ballot is postmarked 3 days before the election date then it should be counted.

There are 10 types of people in this world, those who know binary and those who don't.

The reports I've seen say it's up to Roberts and Comey Barrett, and that they weren't supportive of the DOJ's position.

I'm with you on the postmarked date.

 

If something is postmarked up until the day of the election, why should the voter be penalized because the post office runs at a snails pace?

There needs to be a reasonable cutoff, though. Let's be pragmatic about this. If you are going to send in something the day of, it could affect the outcome of something quite important. This isn't filing your taxes so that if the check is received on 4/18 vs. 4/20, it doesn't matter. Elections need decisions, not the shit that enabled J6 and other things. Let's get this shit counted and done and move the hell on.
