So one of Trump's arguments in PA is that same day voters were not treated as well as mail in voters

This is of course absurd because voters could choose which system to use and there are obvious advantages or disadvantages to both systems - that is why voters are given a choice. I haven't read the case so I am not sure exactly what they are getting at but it seems to me that the mail in voters actually had the disadvantage bc their ballot could have been delayed by DeJoy's postal shennanigans.

..to retreat, surrender, admit defeat.

Have to say it was such a relief to hear Pres-elect Biden earlier today assure Americans that his transition team is moving forward, that he has convened a covid19 task force even though cu$#o in WH is throwing every obstacle to hinder Biden at every turn, including refusal to release president-elect transition funding totalling 9M [ I believe thats the amount, seems low so am unsure.

Anyway. Thanks for post. Paz
