scream-of-consciousness;
"If you're trying to change minds and influence people it's probably not a good idea to say that virtually all elected Democrats are liars, but what the hell."
Is
it raw petulance, or because our media are so bereft over their
failure to hand the presidency to HRC that makes finding an updated
electoral
map nigh impossible? Until I tried Wikipedia.
but if you look at the table in the article, instead of the map, NH and MI still aren't called. the map gives NH to Trump, but the last numbers i saw had hillary ahead.
i'm still confused as to why these two states aren't called. each has 100% counted.
Poetic justice, Trump wins NH and Kelly Ayotte {= John McCain, in Lindsey Graham's skirt}, loses. Hopefully with a zero chance of getting a position in the new administration.
JLW: Provisional and absentee ballots are being evaluated and counted. In those 2 states there are enough to flip it the other way. It rarely makes a difference as the absentee and provisional usually follows what the electorate in the state did but if they have a bunch more from one area, it might flip the state with such close margins.
Geo: she wasn't the only one to suffer from not supporting him. This election was a strong message to the ruling class. I would never have believed it.
I remember a comment in a book called "Eight Is Enough" about a blended family. The Dad said when the kids get too old to spank and they start acting up, he found that cutting off the money supply had a sobering effect. It's time for a lot of people to go get jobs in the "real" world. I figure Title 9 money is going to be gone next year.

The chart doesn't give Trump NH. The red is for one district in Maine. Maine awards electoral votes by district.

ReplyDeleteyou are correct, of course. my old eyes saw Maine 1 as NH.
incidentally, i think Maine gives 2 at large and 2 by district, though i've already been wrong once.

ReplyDeleteWikipedia also calls Nazism "Right-Wing", so I wouldn't get too excited about how accurate they might be on other topics.
