Yep, this is Paxton's version of "Many people are saying..."  It's just how they deliver their talking points, there is nothing to these "reports" other than his fever dreams

And they didn't bother to write a platform in 2020. Looks like they put one together this year. It's 28 pages long, with the table of contents on page 10. Also the table of contents doesn't have page numbers.

The real platform is Project 2025 but that's all on the down low.

Just one poll so far of ME-02, but UNH did a poll of Maine - 

Harris leads by 17 statewide (Biden won it by 9) and she's up 49-44 in ME-02, which Trump won by 7.44

Again, just one poll but the last time a Dem won Maine by double digits was 2012 (Obama +15) - it was Clinton +3 and Biden +9

Why would somebody need to register at a booth outside DPS?

 

I don't know Ken, lets think about that for a minute:

Option 1: Stand in a long line for more than an hour, miss work, talk to a rude asshole, AFTER having to get an appointment days in advance on a glitchy website because you ratfucks have destroyed any sort of civil service that anybody in any other functioning state or country would take for granted; 

or

Option 2: talk to the hippie or mom manning the table outside. Quick, easy, pleasant. 

 

It really is a mystery, you POS ratfuck.

What’s hard to understand that trump is longer shot to win now and it’s getting more action because you can likely win more if he does somehow win? Trying to correlate an election winner to gamblings odds and movement is not smart

Maga folks dumping money in, changing the percentages.  Instead of sending in their tithes to whatever Trump is asking for, they are dumping it in online betting parlors to move him ahead of Harris.  They probably think it's a poll they can donate to to give him a better polling average.

I don’t think you understand how gambling works. While I won’t claim that polls are accurate, betting markets have zero correlation to polls. People placing bets /= a barometer.

People who do this are overwhelmingly Republican, and vibes were REALLY bad in that side of the world for the past few weeks.  Nothing has really changed, other than humans tend to find ways to rationalize away bad news when exposed to it for long enough.

You are confusing things like PredictIt with actual betting odds.   While yes that average includes it, not all of those sites are “markets” they are straight up wagering lines

And pretty much every election since back in Hoover's day most people knew who was going to win by election day.  JFK, Dubya and Dotard elections were too close to call up until election day, but those are the exceptions.

And yeah, take it to the gambling board or something.  It's stupid.

This sock doesn't have much HP. It won't take 600 this time. 

But, I'll give you a chance. Go find @immamac thread of highly moderated discussion of why you want to vote GOP. It's already dropping down the list because y'all are too ashamed to actually admit to the reasons why.

I doubt you'll do it. But, there's your fr.ee forum. A safe place to explore your inner political self and share these things.

The question you ask here is not in good faith. You don't want to discuss policy. Tahoe at least gave a drive by of bullshit and would run off without defending it. 

You're just low effort trolling. So take your neg and go find some more HP somewhere or you might have to get out another sock.

So Bartoromo tweeted some shit about "a friend" going to  the DMV in some Texas shithole, and seeing a crowd of Mexicans across the street being registered to vote.  The local GOP party chair hauled ass down there, and found nothing, and reported that the story was complete bullshit.  So, it checks out that Paxton would piss away some of y'all's money on this fool's errand that's already been shown to be a fabrication from a loon.

She was talking about speaking to the terror plot at her Vienna show. She didn't want to provoke more copycats for the London shows. Instead her team worked with British authorities to ensure the shows in London would be safe for everyone. She wasn't going to play the shows unless she could be assured the shows would be safe. She and her team were satisfied so the shows went on as scheduled. I do think it might give her pause but she's endorsed Biden before and she has to answer the AI bullshit Trump pulled. It won't be this week though.
