I’m sure he’s got houses all over the country. Is he voting from Pennsylvania or Wyoming?

Because when the Republicans get their 300 million, it’s from, like, eight guys who “don’t coordinate with the campaign” but almost always have the same messaging, but when the Dems get that money the average donation is like 30 bucks because that many people supported the candidate.
Musk in the style of the one good Confederate general statue that was ever cast, Haunted Nathaniel Bedford Forrest.
Oh god, he doesn’t know that Kamala Harris isn’t Nikki Haley, does he?
The Luddites had a point about the ‘de-skilling’ of work and the alienation of labor. And they regularly cross-dressed.
These people are just obsessed with enforcing misery.
Within two months and one week of each other.
Oh no! She might be denied a day and a half’s fundraising.
Every vote for Biden in Steubenville is another vote that somebody in Cleveland doesn’t have to counter, so yes, vote.
The electrical vote is state by state (with two states, Maine and Nebraska divying all but two of those votes one per congressional district), so your vote in a swing state matters.
Maybe this rally indicates that when the ‘not left, not right, but center’ crowd is forced to make a choice they won’t empower the Petainists.
This is the only way they’ll play with a cat tree.
You know how the Tesla board voted to gone him a $50 billion compensation package? After child support gets deducted he’s actually making a modest six figure paycheck.
The flaw in the Christ stories, said the visitor from outer space, was that Christ, who didn’t look like much, was actually the Son of the Most Powerful Being in the Universe. Readers understood that, so, when they came to the crucifixion, they naturally thought, and Rosewater read out loud again:
Oh, boy–they sure picked the wrong guy to lynch that time!
And that thought had a brother: “There are right people to lynch.” Who? People not well connected. So it goes.
Robespierre’s cigar cutter?
I seem to recall seeing an infographic (uncertain of its provenance) indicating that one juror listed the NY Post as a frequent news source. That guy’s presence on the jury certainly had me concerned.
Debs ran from prison (for the high crime of telling people that WWI was none of our business and people shouldn’t enlist to get turned toa pink mist in Belgium) in 1920
As for voting as a felon, that varies state to state. I don’t think there’s anyplace that allows people to vote from prison, but quite a few states let convicted felons vote once they’ve completed their sentence and any parole that follows it (and in some states, pay additional fines, which sounds a bit like a poll tax to me, but I’m not one of our nine kritarchs, so what do I know about that sort of thing?)
As for people running for office when they couldn’t vote, Elizabeth Cady Stanton ran for office well before she could have voted, and the first woman elected to Congress (Jeanette Rankin) was elected in 1916, several years before women’s suffrage was added to the constitution, though her state, Montana, had allowed women to vote already.
A farcical accident
It is and it has been since 1787, but there’s no functional difference between a law not being enforced and the thing the law’s about being legal.
(Art. I, § 9, cl. 8): “[N]o Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under [the United States], shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.”
(Art.

They invented FSD in the sixties and it makes a handy little loop through downtown Detroit.
Ford was, based on the behavior of the Reagan, W Bush, and Trump administrations, entirely wrong to pardon Nixon. There is no reason to repeat his mistake.
Maybe he’s offering to let her adopt one of his estranged children.
