It's not just a rebrand. It's an attempt to invoke National Security Concerns (TM) in the arch lawsuit. And then they'll say the the judicial branch should not scrutinize the National Security determinations of the Executive branch.
and the separation of affidavit ballots could result in ballots being separated from their envelopes, putting voters' right to a secret ballot in jeopardy, said the Colom campaign.
This seems like it's not accurate. As long as ballots are in the envelopes, their contents can be associated with the individual, right?
The normal procedure is to verify the voter's eligibility without looking at the ballot inside the envelope. Then, if eligibility is accepted, tear the flap off the envelope and mix it with a bunch of similar envelopes. Then open the envelopes and count the ballots after they have been separated from the identifying information.
Circular breathing is definitely a skill.
Be more disturbed that the Minuteman III missiles, one leg of the nuclear triad, rely on the big 8 inch floppies in their launch control systems.
The replacement missiles will not enter service until the "early 2030s."
All those people who were just elected need to step up and keep their eyes on the ball. Because there's still at least two quarters of antifash left to play.
Houston mayor signs order to limit cooperation with ICE, says 'elections matter' after Democrats win
Fuck Whitmire. He could have signed this order any time before the election, but he didn't.
And then he went ripping up bike lanes that we had already paid good money to install. How the heck does that make any damn sense?

I wonder if she is concerned about that.
I think the whole strategy is to win the provisional ballot fight and get the secretary of state to trigger a recount on the main ballots and hope that recount goes really well for them and shutdown any further recounting after that and then somehow keep the provisionals from ever being counted.
I think it's a lot of hopium.
Provisional ballots are created when a voter shows up at the poll, but there's some kind of problem with their registration that prevents them from voting. On election day the provisional ballots are tossed in a metaphorical pile labelled "in case of close race, open me."
In most elections, the margin of victory is high enough that no one needs to open the provisional ballots or check their eligibility.
But in this race, it is close enough, so they now need to check whether each individual provisional vote is really eligible to vote or not. This is called "chase and cure," and it usually involves tracking down and talking to the voters and others (the chase) and getting whatever documentation is missing to establish the eligibility (the cure).
The Republican party doesn't want these ballots to be cured or counted, because they expect the votes inside to skew heavily Democratic. So they will oppose. Partly because they caused a bunch of the provisional ballots by kicking people off the rolls wrongly.
However, I think this is a pretty good position for Colom, if he has an 1,800 lead or so, and he expects any added votes to skew to him.
She's in the same seat that was held by Strom Thurmond and John C. Calhoun. That's just wild to think about.
And thanks to the Permian Basin, the oil and gas industry in Texas is a very, very large chunk of the United States' entire production. And the US is a big petro state exporter.
