But he added: "None of these systems were involved in vote tallying."

Mr Liles also said "a small number of networks were exploited - they made it through the door."

probably not. it's fight for who gets the blame for the school failing between her and her successor who also happens to be the VT Trump campaign chair.

gonna be hard to argue that if the school's financial board approved of it as weaver says

Anime Schoolgirl posted:

that's an accusation

comedyblissoption posted:

AFAIK so far there has been no evidence presented for these allegations and these allegations are being driven by the chair of the Trump Vermont campaign who personally knows and has a negative relationship with Jane

also apparently the president of the college was someone else that had a personal relationship with jane sanders and is not this same person. that person was brought up in this thread and may be fueling the investigation.

in which Randy Bryce punches right against Jacobin, of all

quote:

As publisher and editor, Sunkara draws a small salary for Jacobin-related work, but works another job around 20 hours a week. The magazine’s only full-time staffer is creative director Remeike Forbes. For digital pieces, contributors get 50 dollars; for print pieces, they get $200. The majority of them are graduate students or young professors. Interns at Jacobin get paid 15 dollars an hour, while the people who help with shipping and other “grunt work” get around $16 an hour. Says Sunkara: “There’s not a place on the masthead for that work, and also, that’s the hidden labor, so we try to pay for that first.”

A lot of the articles are submitted by freelance writers/academia/labor movement folks who presumably receive a fee. No idea what their core editorial staff makes, probably not much but it's part and parcel w/ being in a cause. You don't make much as a union organizer, either. I doubt they're paying a ton to their EIC or top exec or whoever is in charge FWIW, they aren't exactly loaded.

disgusting. if these assholes are so worried about premiums they wouldn't be supporting keeping them high in california

if they're so concerned about women having good access to healthcare, they'd be clamoring for the singlepayer bill to be given a chance

The repeal bill now goes to the Democratic-controlled House.


Hopefully the house can keep it since people voted for it. Bad dem senate dude saying "It'll confuse voters " for 2 types of voting on the ballot.

anime was right posted:

voter suppression + the "shamed into not admitting i'd vote for trump" factor + we were mostly using national polls and not the really tight areas that could swing the election. if a voter has every intent of voting and the models are right, but they have been removed from the records in some fashion, that counts as a representative vote in a poll that is not actually counter. if republicans successfully hosed over say, a single cities worth of voters in oh say, milwaukee, congrats, trump just won wisconsin despite being behind in entirely accurate polls.

this is why i keep screaming gently caress the presidency, win congress + every statehouse and then work from there. as our cities gets denser and denser, the landowner advantage built into the system continuously favors republicans. its only going to get worse, not better. states control voting laws, not the feds, and yet almost every state is controlled by republicans right now...
