Which means they get to vote on Election Day. They mark their ballots, put them in the mail by the third and they are delivered and counted. These rules were passed by mostly State legislatures who are responsible for setting the rules. Most of the states that have allowed mail in voting have allowed for this in the past. This is a normal practice.

I all know that -- I was just pointing out that - even if 'normal practice' it would be obvious to change the fact that mail-in votes can still be counted 7 days after the national elections. (would be normal to change that mail-in votes should be received latest the day prior to election day).

This.

They all, except a very few like Jeff Flake and Mitt Romney, sat back, let it happen, and reaped the benefits.

When someone like Marco Rubio or Chris Christie now tries take the 'moderate' approach, well, where were you when your voice was really needed?

I'm no Republican sympathizer but there has always been a large closeted anti-trump contingent in the party. The loud voices are few but there are a lot of guys who've always viewed him as a bad choice. Larry Hogan ...Kinzinger ...to name a few more prominent ones.

I think fear of being on the wrong side of the "base" is what drove the more moderate republicans into the closet.

Hopefully that group expands quickly once the results are final.

Lindsey Graham admitted he went from anti-trump to supporter b/c he feared for his senate seat. That was Trump M.O. within his own party.

I believe Komisaurus Rex is going to be the next Republican Presidential candidate.

He has a higher net worth and achieved more in life than I have and I'm over twice his age.

And on an unrelated note, my own kid doesn't even like me, maybe I am the one who is not succeeding at life. I need to learn how to be a proper role model.

Sure, live and learn and amend the rules for next time.

As to this election ...irrelevant b/c of the rule of law.

Far easier to call all Republicans and Republican voters evil rather than try to gain any semblance of understanding.

No kidding. A guy who has so little conviction that he'd go from being anti-trump to pro-trump to save his own ass.

And people wonder why no one belives in politicians anymore.

So knock a few off. They'll only carry 12.

Korshkov and hallander stay in Europe.
Robertson starts elsewhere (unless he blows it up).
Engvall and Barabanov battle for the 12th spot.

Send money are his favourite words.

Also ...Graham being closeted by Trump may have multiple meanings. He's a weird dude.

If your daughter is 12 or older, call your home security company and have them change the focus of your system to threats coming from inside the house.

If she’s 10-12, she’s like the raptors in Jurassic Park, watching, learning and waiting,

If she’s 6-10 she spends her time thinking you’re great or being mortified by you.

If she’s 6 or under and doesn’t think you’re the greatest thing alive, you’re a monster.

Man missed his calling. He should have been a stand up comedian and not a president.

That might have happened if the election had been a clear repudiation of Trumpism but he exceeded his vote total from 2016. Moderate Republicans (whatever that means) are either going to have to grow a spine or wear a very ugly mark in history. This is especially true since it looks like they will control the Senate. McConnell has already signalled he won’t play ball in Biden Cabinet or judicial appointments. Biden signalled he wants to work with Republicans. Mitch is going to tell him to (frank) off.
