I am actually getting nervous
I knew Trump would act like this once he lost and I knew republicans would be complicit, but damn this is crazy....Michigan alone is getting crazy and Biden won that state more comfortable than any other of the states trump is trying to steal....it’s not a given that the State canvassers will certify the vote because it has the same partisan 2-2 makeup as the County canvassers and one of the republicans has already stated he has concerns and wants an audit.
Edit- and I don’t trust the SCOTUS
I think they are finally understanding there may be an issue! I don't have time to bring anything over, but post titles looked interesting.

Question.
If the Biden-Harris ticket is so confident they've won, how come Kamala hasn't yet resigned her Senate seat?
Keeping it until the last minute would make sense if there were some important votes coming up, but that doesn't look likely in this case. Besides, by not resigning, she's depriving her successor, another California Democrat, of an opportunity to attain seniority.

Yes sir! Good point. You would think people would listen when Trump tells them something big is coming. He’s got an inside track when he says stuff like that.

Now is not the time to get nervous--it's time to panic.

One's pretty sure that if President Trump has a hat, he's gonna pull a rabbit out of it.
Too bad for the primitives.

Newsom faces backlash for not picking Black woman for Senate seat
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/newsom-faces-backlash-for-not-picking-black-woman-for-senate-seat
California Gov. Gavin Newsom received some backlash on Tuesday for not picking a Black woman to fill the remainder of Vice President-elect Kamala Harris's Senate term.
The Democratic governor instead selected Secretary of State Alex Padilla, who is a Latino, to be the state’s next U.S. senator – a first in California’s history.
Padilla's appointment gives a new level of representation to Latinos, who make up the state's single largest demographic group at nearly 40% of the population. But Newsom's choice of Padilla also means there will be no Black women in the 100-member Senate. Harris, who is Black and Indian, was the only Black woman in the Senate.
California Governor Gavin Newsom selected Alex Padilla to replace Kamala Harris. Some are not happy with that selection.
Even before announcing his pick, Newsom had been urged by members of his party to appoint a Black woman to replace Harris. Last week, Massachusetts Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley suggested that filling Harris's seat with any other demographic would be going backward.
"With the election of @KamalaHarris to VP-elect, @CAgovenor must priorities this leadership, perspective & representation in the vacated U.S. Senate seat & appoint a Black woman," Pressley tweeted. "@BLeeForCongress & @KarenBassTweets are seasoned policymakers."
Harris plans to step down from the seat in January ahead of Inauguration Day, on Jan. 20. Padilla will need to run for a full term in 2022. The appointment gives him an advantage, but he's still likely to face challengers; California's top-two primary system allows two Democrats to face off in a general election.

I love it when their identity politics come back to bite them in the ass.
To be safe, newscum should have selected a handicapped transgendered atheist black-latina refugee from china.

More importantly, she is depriving gavin newsome the opportunity to make some serious coin by selling her Senate seat -- I am sure he learn from blogo how NOT to get caught. Remember, when it comes to politics, the "C" in California stands for Corruption.
