So how's this recount supposed to work exactly, with one race being a machine recount and the other being done by hand? They're the same ballot; are they going to feed these through the machines and then pointedly ignore any discrepancies they notice with their eyeballs? This seems stupid.

I dunno, maybe I'm not Floridian enough to see the genius of this. I bet it'll make sense after I've gotten high on meth and assaulted the local wildlife.

MORE RED MEANS MORE WINNING!

Remember that the literacy rate in this country is only 86% and that more than one in five Americans read below a fifth-grade level.

Comedy option is that ticket wins and Biden immediately resigns like how Pablo Escobar got into office.

biden's one of the reasons student loans are non-dischargeable, and he's gropey as hell, so I'd hope no-one's excited about a biden run

Shame turnout was pretty good in NYC. I joined the protest as it came by my office and walked down to Union Square. Cops were pretty friendly and were ahead of us blocking off traffic and let the protest roll through.

Shame it's not in the news at all.

Then pressure the Democratic leadership to start fostering a better batch of younger candidates. Get people like Pelosi and Schumer to step down, so that younger, more progressive Dems can build their profile. As it stands, most of the younger ones that may run in 2020 are not very good.

Remember when Virginia's supreme court decided "No actually we do want that ballot we rejected" was legal at the last second, and they grabbed the legislature on the back of a cointoss? Recounts are a neverending source of stress and dismay. All these seats are lost, there's too much ground to be made up. If there's a crack in this hellworld reality and one actually flips, treat it as the loving miracle it is.

Ignore it until there's breaking news. You'll kill yourself stressing over it.
