1. Is that even a thing?

[vollehosen]

2. No

Even if it somehow was, the state will just certify and override her.

[Nevilledog]

4. I have no clue.

Vote was 4-0, not sure if other republican also trying to get out of it.

I suggest that the first question that should be asked is "what time did Lindsey Graham call you?"

11. I know the script of this scene

I want to change my dessert from chocolate cake to an ice cream sundae.

But you already ate up the chocolate cake.

20. SoS Jocelyn Benson is Boss.

She wasn't having their shit. There were minor clerical errors in Detroit (which is heavily black), less than in neighboring Levonia (which is mostly white) that these clowns are not calling for an audit of.

It's a feature of the species.
