reading too many postings around this joint you'd think it was all ossoff's fault - or nancy pelosi's - or the more left wing democratic party message..

palast was on hartmann today, too. he pointed out that in other countries around the world he works for main stream news media like the bbc. but not here in the usa. here he doesn't have that audience. but he's doing the work that exposes the real heart of the problem.

I have followed him for years.

GOP have stolen elections for years imo.

I am loathe to believe that half of us are heartless.

I will set some blame on Dems in general.

I worked hard locally on 1st Obama campaign, got to know ppl. Afterwards it all disappeared like poof gone, phone numbers for leaders stopped working. Same with the 10.2.10 One Nation DC rally. In light of our challenges nationwide, we could do better at intrastate connectivity imo

If they have copies of thousands of properly filled out and submitted voter registrations that never were put on the rolls that is ready for a lawsuit.

You have everything you need. You have proof, you have the inured parties who can be named and therefore have standing.

This should have resulted in cases already filed. I'm confused about why that has not happened.
