In-person discussion meetup focused on U.S. politics and elections.
You may have heard that all the White House's big plans to blatantly steal the election in November have been thwarted. The "SAVE Act" did not pass. The Supreme Court blocked the Postal Service from refusing to deliver mail-in ballots to entire states that refused to turn over their voter rolls to the Trump Administration's hastily built, secretive, and probably deliberately incomplete national voter database. Some red states refused to or were blocked from doing last-minute gerrymanders. And so forth. It is not over. Many, many schemes to suppress Democratic votes and rig the counting of ballots are in the works. No longer the big, nationwide stuff, it seems. But enough shenanigans in key places to affect the outcome and further humiliate the USA in the eyes of the world, Democrats may have a big enough lead now to be beyond the "margin of steal." Still, the gap could narrow, the U.S. Senate is a 50/50 proposition, and many key state and local offices are up for grabs. Suppressing votes and messing with the counting and certifying could help Republican candidates just enough to minimize (or even prevent) the damage voters are poised to inflict on the GOP. And there may be wildcards. The FBI director last week told a public congressional hearing that its agents WILL show up at polling places to protect voting "integrity." ICE agents, too, probably, will be out and about. (Putting armed agents - govt or non-govt - at polling places is flatly illegal, BTW.)
