The board of supervisors of Maricopa County, Arizona railed against a review of the county’s 2020 election results ordered by the state Senate during a fiery board meeting Monday.
Just a reminder… you can get to all the comments pages for every article by using this link:
https://forums.talkingpointsmemo.com/c/comments-threads
bookmark it and then you, too, can be the first commenter on a thread!
Are you saying that is how we can “unlock” a stuck commenting thread? @massie
Understand… I am no kind of computer geek.
yup! Follow that link, and then you click on any headline in the list and it opens the comments page for that article, from which you can post a reply.
And is this a temporary fix for some ongoing anomaly?
I pay money for this TPM…
just sayin’
So, as an AZ resident let me say that my state’s Senate is a laughing stock. Or would be if this wasn’t so goddamned serious.
Sometimes, and for some people, when there are no comments yet, the button under the article for going to comments doesn’t show up.
I use this link all the time to just read the articles and comments, but it is currently extra useful since there is apparently a problem where you can’t get to the comments from the article unless someone has replied already. Which you can’t do unless you can get to the comments page. So… this is the workaround.
Meanwhile, I like the line about defending their result in a court of law. Let the republicans bleed one another.
It’s not showing up for me when there are 0 comments, either. Oh, well, I’m sure someone will sort it out eventually.
Welcome back 2020
I also don’t like to “preview” the comments on the article page where you can’t respond. Unless there are a number of comments, you have to find the “continue discussion” at the bottom and then page up to the top of that page to read from the beginning. I want that link always there at the beginning of the comment “preview”.
I’d make a small-to-moderate bet that the stupid S.O.B.s did not use proper forensic procedures when they copied that drive.
Ouchie:
- We will not attend your meeting on May 18, 2021.
In your letter, you invite us to attend a meeting at the Arizona State Capitol on Tuesday, May 18, 2021, at 1:00 p.m., and you request that we bring Election Department officials who would have knowledge of our elections procedures. We will not be attending. We will not be responding to any additional inquiries from your “auditors”. Their failure to understand basic election processes is an indication you didn’t get the best people to perform in your political theatre. We have wasted enough County resources. People’s tax dollars are real, your “auditors” are not.
I use this link for front page comment threads -
https://forums.talkingpointsmemo.com/c/comments-threads/15
And when you refresh it, it shows how many new comments you have to read…or ignore.
Haha! It’s basically the same as yours. I don’t know what the 15 at the end of my link means.
me neither. I see that 15 too sometimes. I have no idea what it does, but the page is exactly the same with or without it…
???
It displays 15 comments at a time before the user needs to refresh? Just a stab in the dark…
Well, this fellow knows how to make his point. Got the defamation suit all teed up and ready to go. This is gonna be good.
Yeah, this is great - I don’t think that most people get this is all Republican on Republican carnage. Let us all pray that it is just a small sign of things to come.
These Republicans that oversee elections in Maricopa County are PISSED!
Another complaint from Fann, alleging that transmission slips accompanying the ballots did not match the actual number of ballots present, was “the result of enlisting auditors who have no experience or background in elections, and failing to understand how to read election transmission slips,” Richer said.
Earlier, Sellers had referred to Fann’s letter as a request to do “on-the-job training” for the Cyber Ninjas auditors. He called the recount a “grift disguised as an audit.” And after Richer finished summarizing the county’s response, the rest of the board of supervisors tee’d off as well.
Moar pleeze.
I’ve had several emails back and forth with Jackie on trying to solve the problem.
The boys in the back room are supposed to be working on it.
