it matters little to them whether it is constitutional or not, or even follows the normal Rule of Law.......

This is just the start of a plethora of shit coming our way in the months ahead folks....

This Newly Revised Republican Party will stop at nothing this time around folks......

Katie Bar The Door.

This is their culmination of over 45+ years worth of work. They missed, by just a millimeter, of succeeding in 2020.......

Why don't they just pass a law to outlaw voting for Democrats? Turbineguy May 2024 #1

Write ins could carry the day but even so I have to believe there is something unconstitutional in this dutch777 May 2024 #2
I actually doubt it. The constitution gives the states the right to select electors "in a manner of their own chusing" unblock May 2024 #7

If Trump died before the election, don't you think they would move heaven and earth to get the backup nominee Mr.WeRP May 2024 #61
If I recall correctly lonely bird May 2024 #52
SCOTUS would not allow states to keep Trump off the ballot when he clearly is an Insurrectionist. Mr.WeRP May 2024 #59
That ruling sheds little light on this case. unblock May 2024 #63
It absolutely does. Only one can be true Mr.WeRP May 2024 #82
Nonsense. It's not an either/or because there are many reasons for not qualifying for a ballot unblock May 2024 #89

Just title the zoom meeting "Official Democratic Party Convention" Think. Again. May 2024 #73
I'm not understanding how we're in this position in the first place Chakaconcarne May 2024 #4
Neither do I! Scheduling the convention before ALL arbitrary state deadlines seems pretty basic! 50 Shades Of Blue May 2024 #15
There's an advantage to having a later convention Diraven May 2024 #45
I get that, but still! 50 Shades Of Blue May 2024 #50
Agreed. TomSlick May 2024 #90
And Colorado had to put djt back on its ballots (they took him off since he was an insurrectionist). SWBTATTReg May 2024 #5
They haven't gotten away with it unless the Democratic Party doesn't take the state to court jimfields33 May 2024 #31
...or work around by having a quick "convention"... Think. Again. May 2024 #74
To be honest, I like that idea best. jimfields33 May 2024 #85
Yep, I'm thinking that's why the DNC isn't worried about this. Think. Again. May 2024 #86
