Discussion for article #229736
Big bright smile from me. Some good news on what is likely to be an intensely frustrating evening.
Leave it to lawyers. The case is over on page 2, when the “Order applies the following rule, adopted by the Tenth Circuit”, since this is the controlling precedent. Case closed. And then it goes on for another 36 pages, explaining that the court is really, really following the precedent.
YES!
Great news for some of my friends!
Same here, Teen. They’re giddy and a bit stunned at the same time. And this on a day when Dems/Independents just might win 3 of the 4 statewide offices being decided today.
I’ve got my fingers crossed!
EDIT: I just convinced a friend with a bad cold it was important that he vote today, so he did. My good deed for the day!
A bit of sunshine on what promises to be a pretty dark evening, an evening which, if the GOPigs get their way, heralds a two year Dark Age in this republic before they can be removed, one hopes, for a very, very long time.
If the dire predictions come to fruition, I will remind myself of the oft quoted line: "…[T]he arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.”
Prepare for a long battle ahead in any case.
A least a little good news for tonight. I plan on NOT watching the election returns.
