@billybinion This part seems strange though.
Not claiming conspiracy. I don’t think it is. But this shows it’s not just a mail-in versus in-person phenomenon.
20 to 37 percentage points is an 85% increase. That is certainly remarkable and must be an artifact of… something!

I lived in California for a couple of years, and I agree it's *very* annoying that the state takes so long to count ballots. But Spencer Pratt losing ground is not a conspiracy. It's totally predictable.
CA allows voters to *send* their ballots on Election Day. They have a week to get there, so some ballots that will still be counted have yet to even arrive. Left-leaning people are more likely to vote by mail. Right-leaning people—of which there are fewer in LA—are more skeptical of it, so it easily follows that more Pratt voters would vote at the actual ballot box. This is not rocket science.
Maybe California's laws should change. A week after an election is a very long time to still be accepting ballots, and it damages trust in the process. But a registered Republican heading for a loss in one of the most progressive cities in the world is not a shocker.

@BasedMikeLee We’d love to do a debate on this.
What do you think is the single strongest and simplest argument for why Mormonism is Christianity?

Oh Wow.
Trump ended an interview with NBC's Kristen Welker mid-conversation in Wisconsin, calling her a liar to her face before walking off.
Trump: "The elections are like a 3rd world country. You're Crooked...let's call it Quits . I've had enough."
Welker asked him to stay, saying she had traveled to Wisconsin for the sit-down.
Trump: "I've sat in the rain with you for an Hour! I've given you enough time. You ought to straighten out your press. You know what? A country can never be great with a dishonest press. Let's GO."

Four ideologies shape the Bitcoin community. Maximalists bring conviction. Capitalists bring integration. Technologists bring innovation. Fundamentalists bring preservation. Bitcoin reaches its full potential when these four forces work in harmony.

🚨 UPDATE: Governor candidate Steve Hilton just said he plans to ABOLISH the weeks-long California vote counting if elected
GOOD! Be like Florida!
HILTON: "India counts over 640 million votes in a day. California cannot count less than 10 million votes in a month!"
"Mail-in ballots must arrive by election day if they're going to be counted. Mail-in ballots can only be offered by request as it used to be. You shouldn't be sending out mail-in ballots to everyone on the voter rolls when we know the voter rolls are completely WRONG!"
"We should be pre-counting these votes just like Florida does. So it doesn't end up being this mad backlog that takes a month or so to count. It's completely ridiculous."

@GuntherEagleman Fetterman votes with Democrats 80% of the time.
Manchin voted with Democrats 82% of the time.
But what they vote on matters, too. Manchin would strategically break with Dems on a few visible issues, but come home when something critical was on the line.

Don’t fall for his words… John Fetterman votes with the Democrats.
Gunther Eagleman™@GuntherEagleman
🚨 BREAKING: 48% chance on Kalshi that John Fetterman leaves the Democrat Party before 2028! Fetterman has already been a thorn in the side of the radical left, voting against their worst ideas, calling out their insanity, and putting America First on key issues. The Democrats are imploding!

@shaunmmaguire It's just nice to see Big Tech companies getting along

@hair_balll Couldn’t be worse than this shit show.

For everyone confused why 51 votes would matter given the filibuster:
It only needs 51 if this is an amendment to a budget/reconciliation measure, as that process is protected from the filibuster. But if the amendment is ruled non-budgetary or violates reconciliation rules, opponents can still force a 60-vote threshold.

They aren’t even trying to hide it

Spencer Pratt got 0 out of 24,000 votes in a late night LA ballot drop. 0/24,000 A guy getting around 30% support got 0 out of 24,000. Astronomically small probability of happening. Impossible. California no longer even hides it. Doors need to be kicked in.

@foster_type VERY critical to note that not every politician can pull this off nor should they try. It takes an extremely specific lowkey delivery style, which Rubio's earnestness just happens to match perfectly.

@GaredHunt @HunterBiden @SoundDobad we can co-create a whole educational series if @PBS has the courage

@SoundDobad I know this may sound petty, but I can’t stand it when people put photoshop a meth pipe in my mouth. A crack pipe doesn’t have that little bowl at the end. This is why we can’t trust AI. Please make the appropriate edit. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

@cremieuxrecueil Another interesting data point tucked in here: By 2020 more Republicans viewed gay relationships as morally acceptable than Democrats did in 2005. Big shift over just 15 years.
