Republican legislators in Michigan

samedi 9 octobre 2021 à 02:00

Republican legislators in Michigan have passed laws to cut the funding of school districts that require people in schools to wear masks, or require quarantine of people that have Covid-19.

Republicans control the Michigan legislature is that they rig the elections using gerrymandering. A majority of the votes are always Democratic, and a majority of the legislature always Republican. Now that Republicanism means spreading disease, maybe it will be possible for Michiganders to overcome the intentional unfairness of the electoral system.

"Election Audits" don't convince fanatics

samedi 9 octobre 2021 à 02:00

"Election audits" that find no wrongdoing do not convince the fanatics who are positive that the wrecker really won in 2000. They react by demanding more investigation. The "steal" has become an article of faith for them, and "audits" have become a barbaric ritual that they use to propagate the faith.

The "audit" in Arizona confirmed that Biden did win that state, and with a slightly bigger margin. It appears that the Republicans who did the auditing were compelled, somehow, to judge each ballot by impartial standards.

I predict that if Republicans do more of these "audits" they will try to eliminate whatever factor had that effect. They will look for ways to report arbitrary, bogus results.
