    Here is some more of that article that you shared....I guess this is the unimportant part.

    The brief order noted that the three liberal justices on the court, which has a 6-3 conservative majority, all dissented.

    "This is a victory for commonsense and election fairness," Gov. Glenn Youngkin, a Republican who announced the plan in August, said in a statement.

    "Virginians can cast their ballots on Election Day knowing that Virginia’s elections are fair, secure, and free from politically-motivated interference," he added.

    Virginia has same-day voter registration, meaning any eligible voter who was removed from the rolls should still be able to vote on Election Day or during the early voting period, which ends Saturday.

    Well, Dems felt the "Puerto Rico is garbage" line would impact the election in Kamala's favor, even though people in Puerto Rico don't vote.

    There could be relatively apolitical family and friends of Trump supporters who are offended enough that it will sway them to vote for Trump. Biden put his foot in his mouth (again), and the Harris campaign is right to be furious about it.

    I know Biden isn’t intentionally trying to sabotage Harris. Harris will preserve his legacy more than Trump will. But Biden isn’t helping Harris - Biden would lose to Trump bigly and needs to stay away from the mic and her campaign.

    Trump will spin it like the Hillary deplorables comment. There are Americans who believe the Democrat party is elitist and out of touch with the average American and comments like this adds fuel in the battleground states where every vote matters.

    Yeah, I had already read it. I didn't find it unimportant as you hinted.

    Hopefully those removed find out in enough time to get off work to vote. Not everyone has the opportunity to vote on election Day if they can't get the time off work to vote early last minute. That's probably part of the reason it's normally done 90 days out. It is pretty last minute.

    Kamala taking days off while Trump is picking up more votes. Garbage is valuable.

    And if Kamala wins PA Trump will scream saying they changed the rules.

    Shows how pathetic and stupid this weak argument is for this fool to have to create a completely made up and fake quote in order to pretend it's true.

    AZ voters won’t forget how Trump went out of his way to insult / discredit war hero John McCain.

    Add to it, Trump’s recent racist (political suicide)
    rally in PA; it could sway votes in AZ

    Just the other day Trump at one of his rallies referred to Kamala supporters as “scum.”

    So where is the outrage and wall to wall coverage from even the local news to let everyone know about this “firestorm”??

    The media is just pathetic. Even at the local level where they just can’t help themselves.

    Im sure you’re right that Kamala’s staff wasn’t happy about it and because they know that media can’t help themselves as you said there could be potentially one person who knows a MAGA who uses this to justify that vote for Trump but make no mistake… that person was always going to find some excuse to vote for Trump regardless.

    There’s something incredibly fcked up about this country when one side has to be 110% perfect when the other side gets to be lawless, racist, and hateful out there in the open and get scored playing Putt Putt while Democrats are scored playing Augusta.

    the McCain thing holds very little weight at this point.

    And the MSG rally being a "nazi rally" is only holding in the most extreme of Dem circles so not surprised you think it's going to sway Arizona lmao
