Looks like it took just one to call it, then everyone else jumped on the band wagon. I don't know who was first, just glad someone bit the bullet and did it.

Should be a lot of republicans standing up to this bullshit, but they're still taking Trump over America far as I can tell. Holy shit these people are horrible excuses for Americans.

I hope this all makes republicans into the pariahs they deserve to be, templates for what to avoid when you are raising kids. You end up rearing a kid who has a very republican view on science, math, history, personal integrity, etc and you done fucked up. Republicans are no longer conservatives it seems; they're toxins.

Everyone seemed to be waiting for the PA lead to cross 35K.

There is only so much money in the budget. The cost of hiring each person is substantial because every one has to go thru back ground checks etc. It's not like they can just take any Joe Shmoe off the street and say here, we will pay you a hair above minimum wage to count ballots, get to work. @ 1 minute per ballot from start to finish to count a ballot (open envelopes, remove, flatten, verifty, etc). it would take 694 days or 16666 man hours, to count 1 million ballots. That would take 700 people's worth of man hours, per million ballots, non stop to get them counted in 1 day. Now, do the math for 2,3....10 million ballots.

The cost of hiring each person is insubstantial when you look at how many billions are spent on the election.

CNN's Van Jones gave such an amazing emotional speech. I hope it's available at some point on Youtube.

I live in a redneck rural area outside of Tacoma, and they went out and shot off their guns just like they do for a Seahawks win or the New Year! Clearly not all gun toters are Maggots :D
Hey, a proud American gun crazed tradition. Quiet out here on Kitsap peninsula.

I like the idea of the candidates having to spend billions to pay for the cost of actually running the election versus what they sink into their campaign costs and advertising.
