OT: Cookie Poll!

[T]

Pa. bakery's election-themed 'cookie poll' is now showing clear frontrunner

https://www.foxnews.com/food-drink/pennsylvania-bakery-election-cookie-poll-clear-frontrunner-owner-says

Trump: 28,000
Biden: 5,000

That is 6 to 1

And the poll has accurately predicted the past three elections

None of which had a pandemic in which smart people stay home and bake their own cookies.

You do have somewhat of a point. You Lefties were told
to cower in fear. Apparently to afraid to go out
to their front yard and put up a Harris / Biden sign
as well

[angelica...@yahoo.com]

What's the point? Do those signs ever convince anybody to change their vote?

It's just a tribal identification.

Cindy Hamilton

[Muggles]

Gee ... cookies for everyone!

It is an indication of enthusiasm. The most enthusiasm wins

[angelica...@yahoo.com]

No. The one who gets the most Electoral College votes wins.

Look at Bernie Sanders' fans. Very enthusiastic, but their numbers are
too small to be useful.

Cindy Hamilton

[T]

Not a good argument Cindy. Trump's fans are VERY numerous and
ENTHUSIASTIC.

Comrade Bernie only had a handful of Bolsheviks.

I have a Biden=Harris sign in my front yard and so do several of my
neighbors. No one has a trump sign.

Yard signs are getting harder to get. 20 years ago they were easy, and
heavy paper. Now they are ?? vinyl?? what is that paper-like plastic
used in many commercial yard signs. Not the cellular kind (what is
that, too) that has channels that a metal wire H fits into with the
bottom part in the earth, but the paper-like that also goes on an H?

I said they were expensive but someone on the phone told me they were
cheaper.

But a neighbor gave me one. She said an ex-neighbor had given her more
than one.

In other n'hoods there are more, but only in yards with a congressional
candidate's sign also in the yard. Clear that that candidate has been
passing out both of them.

To help T out, let's assume he's integrating the amount of enthusaism
over those who have enthusiam So for sanders, the amount is high but
the number is too low and the integral is low.

So the difference isn't as much as one might think, but it's not as
little either. Above a certain point, enough to get oneself to vote and
if it's possible, to encourage some others to do so, extra enthusiasm
does no good and even turns off some others. And lack of enthusaism
doesn't matter much if people still vote. I vote in every election no
matter how little enthusaism I have, even school board elections where I
dont' know who any of them are (a blank ballot in that one),

>Cindy Hamilton

[Ed Pawlowski]

Nope, I went out this afternoon and cruised the neighborhood counting
signs. I always vote for the candidate with the most sign and the
biggest ones get an extra point. I'll make one more round in other
sections after dinner and be ready to cast my ballot.

"=" typo? Everyone on our side things he will be
25th amendment-ed. Harris is a real Marxist too.
I am not name calling either. Listen to her video
posted here:

All over town I have only seen three Harris/Biden yard signs.
Trump signs (and flags) are ubiquitous.

The "one" guy in our neighborhood with a Harris/Biden
sign likes to put up Halloween decorations in his
front hard. The Harris/Biden sign got included in the
webs and stuff. Suddenly his yard became very scary!
I don't know if he realized. Chuckle.

So you are the one!!!!!

Any "Big Yaller Dogs" running in your district?

[rbowman]

I don't recall seeing a Trump sign around here. Last time around Trump
got 56.2% of the vote in Montana. I think he'll do better this time.

[Bod]

I heard that in the last election that Trump got a few million votes
less than the Democrats.

I live in a small town and we have two voting districts. This morning
I arrived at the polling station at 6:00am because there's hardly ever
anyone there that early. When I arrived there were probably 75 people
waiting in line for the doors to open which was surprising. We went
through the line to check in and receive our ballots.

We still use paper ballots here for which I am grateful. Having a
paper trail is very important and I don't trust the electronic voting
machines because I think it would be easy to manipulate those if
someone wanted. I filled out the ballot and got in line to deposit it
in the counting machine. The line for depositing it had suddenly
backed up and we were told there was a paper jam. For some reason they
weren't able to clear it so they told us to place the ballots in the
machine's bin instead and they would be processed later.

Conspiracy theories aside, at least there are paper ballots available
for manual counting. How does an electronic machine work if there's a
problem?

It's an improperly constructed cookie poll to begin with. Instead of a
Biden cookie, they should have had a Dump Trump Nov 3 cookie. I'd buy
that, a Biden cookie, not so much.

What are the odds that the 25th has to be used on Trump, to get him out
of office when he loses, goes even more bat shit crazy, abuses and disgraces
the office even more, refuses to leave, issues calls for violence, etc?

[badgolferman]

The 25th Amendment will be used on Biden to make Harris president.

[angelica...@yahoo.com]

Nil. Everybody who would have to take action to use the 25th are supine.

In Bernie's case he did have the DNC conspiring against him. They were
more successful than the Republicans. I do wonder why the old fool
thinks he will have any input if he kisses the ring.

[Grumpy Old White Guy]

Hang in there, buddy.  Just 4 more years.  LOL

To join thread, I might mention that I read a poll on TMZ where if your
name was Richard you are more likely to vote for Trump and if Karen you
were likely to vote for Biden.

YOU calling someone ELSE an "old fool"???? YOUUUUU??? Of all people???
Fucking hilarious!

I think Trump might resign before 1/20 so Pence can pardon him.
Then the next question would be if a presidential, pardon is an
"immunity" protected by the 14th amendment. If it is, that pardon
would also extend to state laws. As far as I know, that has never been
litigated.

[Bob F]

I have heard that a person given a pardon can no longer plead the 5th
when questioned under oath.

Its not even possible to pardon someone for something they
havent been charged with and unlikely anyone would charge
and convict him in the 2 months before the inauguration.

You must have been asleep when Ford pardoned Nixon

" THEREFORE, I, GERALD R. FORD, President of the United States,
pursuant to the pardon power conferred upon me by Article II, Section
2, of the Constitution, have granted and by these presents do grant a
full, free, and absolute pardon unto Richard Nixon for all offenses
against the United States which he, Richard Nixon, has committed or
may have committed or taken part in during the period from January 20,
1969 through August 9, 1974."

Nixon had never been charged with anything at the time.

Hence the "or may have committed or taken part" portion.

A Blanket Pardon!

Nixon was a Paranoid Asshole!
