just had an interesting call

from something like the "civics participation group or committee" or something like that. young guy, sounded like he might have been Black, telling me about what was going on here in Cochise County ( ) and wanting me to call the Supes and tell them to do the right thing, certify the election. I said uh, no if the votes from the county get voided Engel will win and maybe Horne will lose too. so no let them shoot themselves in their dogshit covered feet!

anybody have any idea what the group is? I was cleaning turkey carcasses and couldn't really talk or take any notes. he said I would have to call some number to get off their list but I didn't have anyway to write it down. his number was hidden. I have to answer my phone due to tourists, lost morons, livestock out on roads, etc.

I only know Judd and her part of the county is the reddest of an almost all red county. Still plenty of trump flags flying around here.

There's no playground monitor anymore. It's everyone for themselves.
This is not your high school civics class. This is a battle for the REAL disenfranchised people.

It's nice that there is an authoritarian bloc here that doesn't care about the law, the Constitution or voting rights.

refuse to certify their county's vote totals EVEN THOUGH they find no problem with Cochise County's overwhelmingly Republican votes but merely to somehow protest Maricopa County's Democratic votes despite knowing that their county's votes could be ruled invalid since not certified, and it will somehow not be their OWN damn fault if that means some Republican winners become losers?

Reasonably read, the OP simply says it will be ok if the Arizona law is enforced and the RWNJs hoist themselves by their own petard.

And it sounds fine to me.

Exactly!

I fail to see any reason why Democrats should bend over backwards to save Repukes from their own stupidity. What's going on in Cochise County is not our circus, and those are not our moronic poop-flinging monkeys!
