Retweeted Jamison Foser (@jamisonfoser): Barrett was nominated by a president who lost the popular vote, confirmed by a Senate majority that represents fewer people than the Senate minority, and gives the Supreme Court a majority of members who were appointed by presidents who took office after losing the popular vote.
Retweeted Christopher Ingraham (@_cingraham): You know, one thing I'll note is that it's not just Democrats who cast ballots that arrive after election day. These attempts to toss out ballots are disenfranchising *across the political spectrum.* From a pure small-d democratic standpoint you want every vote to count. twitter.com/mjs_DC/status/...
North Carolina Republicans are already using Kavanaugh's opinion last night to cast doubt on the validity of mail ballots that arrive after Election Day. (They are currently asking SCOTUS to shorten the ballot deadline.) https://t.co/bXu20Qgu7r
Retweeted Benjy Sarlin (@BenjySarlin): This will be mentioned plenty of times on election night, but the reason you won't have quick counts in key swing states (mainly PA) is that R legislators denied requests to process mail votes early to speed things up on Nov 3. The cause and effect are clear ahead of time. twitter.com/JenniferJJacob...
"It would be very very proper and very nice if a winner were declared on November 3rd, instead of counting ballots for two weeks, which is totally inappropriate and I don't believe that that's by our laws. I don't believe that. So we'll see what happens,” Trump before leaving WH. pic.twitter.com/Ojt19VSrbc
