I'm convinced the only people in the world who care about the Simpsons are on RM

in Georgia, Kemp was in charge of administering the election while also running in it. He’s engaged in a number of moves to purge voters, of which voting rights academic Carol Anderson wrote in the Atlantic, “if the Georgia race had taken place in another country — say, the Republic of Georgia — U.S. media and the U.S. State Department would not have hesitated to question its legitimacy.”

[96583UP]

this is actually incorrect, if the victors in the republic of georgia purchased Trump Tower condos then the legitimacy would have been celebrated as the most legitimate

Credit where it’s due:

I guess. I mean she's not directly doing it, but the state GOP on the other hand...

Also, from an email McDumptruck sent out to supporters late Friday/early Saturday.

"This is what we're dealing with: Sinema and the Democrats have prepared millions of dollars to sue me in court to bend the rules and exploit loopholes in her favor. The Democratic Machine will do whatever it takes to change the results of this election."

[McParadigm]

There is a small handful of N&D semi-regulars whose thoughts about this I am terribly curious to see, but who never seem post anywhere near here at times like this.

[96583UP]

no time for them to get emotionally invested in a losing cause (i.e. democracy vs. authoritarianism), beef supreme is on tonight

[96583UP]

ah wait

unless you are referring to right wing contingent

in which case, they are just waiting to receive the fax from the chamber of commerce to find out what to think

[BurtReynolds]

Who has the best lawyers? My money is on them.

[McParadigm]

McSally concedes.

[run2death]

[McParadigm]

Best case for republicans now is to end up with a six person advantage. It’ll be a much tighter senate than most expected.

[96583UP]

seriously? just reading about her now and realizing that she is a decent human being

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martha_McSally

Martha Elizabeth McSally (born March 22, 1966) is an American politician serving as the U.S. Representative for Arizona's 2nd congressional district since 2015. A retired military officer, she served in the United States Air Force (USAF) from 1988 to 2010 and rose to the rank of colonel. One of the highest-ranking female pilots in the history of the Air Force, McSally was the first American woman to fly in combat following the 1991 lifting of the prohibition on female combat pilots.

She flew the Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II close air support aircraft over Iraq and Kuwait during Operation Southern Watch.[1] McSally was also the first female commander of a USAF fighter squadron (the 354th Fighter Squadron (354 FS), based at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base). In 2001, she successfully sued the United States Department of Defense in McSally v. Rumsfeld, challenging the military policy that required United States and United Kingdom servicewomen stationed in Saudi Arabia to wear the body-covering abaya when traveling off base in the country.
