American Politics from 2019 on

[Tero]

Each US district is the size of two Icelands:
...at 435 house nembers with each one representing 761,179 people following the 2020 United States census.

Voting happened without violence. A single Trumpster arrested in WI polling place:
Officers from the West Bend Police Department in Wisconsin removed a man armed with a knife from a polling location after he ordered poll workers to "stop the voting."

The suspect, a 38-year-old man yet to be named by police, entered the West Bend Community Memorial Library with a knife just after 12:30 p.m. and ordered officials to stop working, police said in a statement on Facebook.

Voting was paused for a little over 30 minutes while police took the man into custody without incident.

Why do you hate freedom so much?

You’re only as free as you can afford.

Do you think it was the civil rights bit that triggered them? I bet it was. They are boring, spiteful people.

If she loses it'll be STOOEN ELECTION time again. Such fun.

Well, the recount should be fun. I'm glad Tina Peters isn't running the Mesa County elections anymore.

These times. The actual people doing work are going a bit slow, as they want to get the right number the first time. Recounts may happen but still, the officials still have some integrity in goofball states:

Arizona (76% in)
Kelly Incumbent 51.4%
979,509
95,318 ahead
Masters
46.4%
884,191

Nevada (84% in)

Laxalt 49.4%
436,854
15,812 ahead

Cortez Masto
Incumbent
47.6%
421,042

There is really no issue thing here or any major scandal

Voters seem to vote for federal posts based on things the federal government does not do. From the GOP, the "open border" is the only valid federal issue. The feds do not defund police.

In the first post-COVID-19 pandemic election, voters largely said no thank you to big government lockdowns, left-wing defund police efforts, and the anti-American critical race theory being taught in schools.

Americans stated in no uncertain terms that they prefer their beloved constitutional republic as it was before the coronavirus. Look no further than pro-freedom Gov. Ron DeSantis’ stunning 19 percentage point landslide victory which slams the door closed on Florida’s status as a quintessential battleground state. It’s truly a new day in the Sunshine State when you consider that Gov. DeSantis won Miami-Dade County in such an amazing fashion.

Better than expected…

Gossip via Colorado:
According to the NY Times, the three largest pools of uncounted ballots are Pueblo (at 90% reported), Garfield (also 90%) and Pitkin (80% reported). Fritsch is heavily leading in all three areas (+9, +14, and +58) currently. If trends continue, he very well could win! I'd still expect a recount, though.

Apparently, she's versatile.
