New Mexico Supreme Court Orders Rogue GOP Commission To Recognize Election Results

In this instance, basically because state law gave the county commission no discretion over whether to certify the election. It was the county clerk (or some similar position) who was responsible for counting the votes. And when those people get replaced by MAGAs, they can really gum up the works.

That horse left the barn some time ago, my friend. They started by targeting local school boards 30 or 40 years ago. They succeeded in November, 2020, much to our detriment.

It’s so nice to read trenchant, informative comments like this one. Especially when written like a 3rd grader who’s randomly hitting caps.

I used to live in New York. It would be worth throwing that guy off his horse. What’s more, I have a card that would have ensured the police didn’t arrest me for it.

No true tough guy acts out like this. I take offense. Starting to look forward to these arseholes trying something.

Of course the irony of this would be completely lost on these missing links.

It is an avalanche of money that propels all this. Dems are outspent 10-1, conservatively.

What mechanism did the Roberts court put in place to ensure there would be an equitable outcome of the Citizen’s United ruling?

Oh, I see. Kind of giving the game away there.

The conservative courts don’t base rulings on intended outcomes…unless they favor their intended outcomes…

I see we’ve gotten our troll detector restored and set to 11.

Watch out for those Jewish Space Lasers though. They really mess with them.

Sometimes the lack of an answer is the answer itself. These people have had a lock on this whole show since the beginning. Plymouth Rock was the first pulpit, and it has been a bully’s game since.

Cowboys for Trump Leader and Convicted Jan. 6 Insurrectionist
Couy Griffin

I’m almost willing to bet he has that on his business cards.
At least on his resume. Or Trumpist equivalent of a LinkedIn profile.

So all of them believed fake news?

Yesterday, I looked at the local newspaper, Alamogordo Daily News to see what it had to say about this story. It pretty much had the same information, however there was a letter to the editor where the writer was fed up with Couy Griffin’s antics. If that was not bad enough this person went off on the other two Republicans for being so stupid to go along with Griffin’s delusional schemes or ideas that he was making the county the laughing stock of the nation. He told them to start thinking on their own and govern.

“When I certify stuff that I don’t know is right, I feel like I’m being dishonest because in my heart I don’t know if it is right.”

this is the same sort of nonsense argument that the jackass clerk spewed in Kentucky to refuse to issue marriage licenses to gay couples… in her ‘heart’ and her ‘christianity’ it just wasn’t right

“When I certify stuff that I don’t know is right, I feel like I’m being dishonest because in my heart I don’t know if it is right.”

Well, with logic like that, who can argue?

Seriously, you literally cannot argue with the infinity loop.
