MSDOS KAPITAL posted:Germany seemed to write such a law and make it work. Yeah but in Germany's case there's a very specific thing about unpersoning and keeping specifically Nazis held down. It's not like making the Nazi party specifically excluded will prevent people from using other labels to disguise their white nationalism. For instance in the US we have the Republican Party. e: In any case my concerns were addressed and it's not really worth me worrying about anymore.

Unfortunately I can see why people might have skipped over voting in the Senate: it's in the bottom left corner and his point about the secretary of agriculture doesn't make sense since it is in a different column and these are clearly read in column order, not row.

evilweasel posted:my basic point is, democrats have won in florida so "close loss" is something you can consider blaming on the candidate and suggest a better candidate might have won. that's hard in florida where you have gillum and nelson having the same amount of votes, but it's not immediately obvious that's wrong. it's not a knock on gillum - I don't know why he lost and I think he was a great candidate - but it's not immediately and obviously wrong to say "well, he lost, they should have nominated someone else." saying that about someone who only barely lost in Georgia is immediately and obviously wrong and is just like "have you heard of Georgia?" I don't know if you can get any more moderate than republican->independant->dem no really honest, but he came up short 1.2 million votes that gillum turned out. At some point you're just arguing that "hypothetical campaign obama, except white because florida is very racist would have won".

Harik posted:I invite you to review the previous few florida gubernetorial elections, such as 2010 republican-turned independant charlie crist deciding not to run again and Alex Sink losing in the massive backlash against Obamacare. Then, perhaps, investigate the 2014 election, where Rick Scott defeated republican-turned-independent-ex-governor-turned-democrat Charlie Crist lost with about 3/4 of the votes that Gillum had. i invite you to read my post again, which very specifically makes sure to make clear that i am not saying the thing you're complaining about here

Without a comparison it's just conjecture I mean, we'll find out definitively when they do a hand recount. We just can't check that theory by looking at the existing vote totals right now, over the internet. If the race under that was contested, we could check if this was a ballot design error (if that race also had significant undervotes, probably ballot design; if that race did not have significant undervotes, probably machine error).
