That's not the only example and Kavanaugh has done it as well. I am not saying Justices don't usually vote party lines but its not etched in stone as many believe. Just like you can say Kudo to Trump some conservative Justices can vote for what they actually think is right. I think Justices are far more concerned with legacy than what Trump wants and I have no idea what being less of a Democrat has to do with anything. You are kinda making my point for me. Are you on the all Republicans are evil train?
No, I have not only praised many republicans and cited many others here, I have voted for republicans.... and yes, there are the rare occasions that Roberts votes in the middle, just as there are the occasional "liberal" that votes for the conservative side. These are usually the rare exception to the rule. That rareness is what makes the danger of a 6-3 court majority. And the possibility that a new administration and legislature, with the possibility that the court system may be examined is probably the only thing gating that court majority from ruling even more to the extreme.
I am guessing this is what passes for an effective ad in today's retrumplican, er, republican party...
Why would dark money be a mystery to him? Has he not heard of Citizens United? Did he think it would only support GOP candidates, ha? He's the #2 obstructionist in Congress. Hell, Bloomberg promised $100 million, i'd spend $50 against Mitch and $50 against Lindsey
That's an interesting County with a mix of country folks and I assume fairly liberal 'move to the hill country' types. I assume it was scientifically gerrymandered though. Would live to know the majority of votes.
These early voting numbers are insane. Also look at the demographics of who is voting early. Election looks like a landslide for Biden.
The last few polls: Quinnipiac University (10/16-19) - Even Morning Consult (10/11-20) - Biden +1 University of TX (10/13-20) - Biden +3 Data for Progress (10/15-18) - Biden +1 PPP (10/7-8) - Biden +1 Morning Consult (10/2-11) - Trump +2 538 has the polls at Trump 47.6% to Biden 47.5%, virtually a tie, but has % of winning for Biden at 37% (because they also take into account past voting patterns and demographics). ~2 out of 5 chance isn't bad.
Early voting is also high in counties that went red in the midterms which was also a year in which voter turnout was high. Counties like Collin, Denton and Comal. Team red isn't staying home either.
Hays flipped in 2018 and voted for Beto (and voted for him by a large margin). I believe a combination of suburban shifts to the Democrats and strong student turnout at Texas State made that happen. I think nowadays, the Austin metro area has grown into Hays County so the demographics have changed. It'll be interesting to see how the student vote works out with Covid but Hays County is one of those places that might start consistently voting for Democrats going forward.
Its so funny how the Trump trolls love to brag how their crowd sizes, their big boats and trucks, long lines at rally, but none of that enthusiasm transferred over to the polls? How come those morons can wait in line for hours for a rally but refuse to vote early LOL. This whole RED wave on the election is so funny. Trump trolls want to talk **** about Biden's crowd sizes yet his crowd is actually showing up the polls.
