With just five days to go until Election Day, Democrats appear to have a significant advantage over Republicans when it comes to voter enthusiasm.
According to new polling from Gallup, 77% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning voters say they’re more enthusiastic about voting than usual, versus 67% of Republicans and GOP-leaning voters who say the same.
That’s a slightly higher level of enthusiasmfor Democrats than they had just before the 2008 election, when that same poll found that 76% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning voters were more enthusiastic than usual about voting. Barack Obama would go on to win that year in an Electoral College landslide.
Doesn’t matter. Don’t let them make you complacent. Go vote!
Even if you think he’ll lose, the House (unless the Dems take it) will very likely try to block certification, force a per-state count instead of a per-delegate count, and punt it it to Supreme Court.
So give as little leeway as possible. The more he loses by the harder his next little coup attempt will be
When the votes are counted, the presiding officer will be VP Kamala Harris, not the House Speaker.
And the only way to block a state’s certification is if both the House and Senate agree. Otherwise they have to accept the results certified by the governor.
One body can reject forever, nothing forces them to accept.
That’s not how it works.
When the EV’s for a state are counted, the House and Senate have one opportunity to object.
If there is an objection, a vote is called. A majority in both houses is necessary to reject those EVs.
If there is not a majority in both houses then the motion fails, the EV’s are accepted, and the VP moves on to the next state.
No each body must vote to sustain an objection, if one doesn’t then the process is deadlocked.
That’s just not true.
That isn’t what your link says at all, infact it talks at length about the uncertainty of the whole process, which favors it being attacked.
I literally quoted the linked article
The house and the president will almost certainly swing the same way. This is nothing to worry about.
Midterms tend to favor the opposing party
The point is that if Harris wins, then Hakeem Jeffries will likely be House Speaker on January 6
Hey, I won’t say no to that
