Except for the colour of his skin, I can think of few more appropriate representatives of the modern GOP than this connoisseur of Nazi GI Joes and piss porn.

The party of Nazi family values.

That doesn’t really mean much in NC.

RFK Jr. dropped out before yesterday’s deadline. Robinson did not.
That counties had to reprint ballots after RFK Jr. dropped out is beside the point

Also, many absentee ballots being sent to overseas soldiers are being mailed today, so that’s pretty hard to take back.

I’m disappointed. I clicked on that link and didn’t get what I expected.

Before reading the article, I assumed the lede photos were a bad 'shop or something, but now I see that they’re just some shitty-ass Marwencol knockoff. Mark Hogancamp knows who the real bad guys are.

I presume that Robinson’s Nazi dolls are the origin of his online handle “minisoldr” (mini soldier).

Uncovered forum posts by Tim Walz could shake up race

CNN and ProPublica found that Democratic vice-presidential nominee Tim Walz is the owner of an active account on the website HotOrNotDish.net, where he posts under the anonymous username DarthTater, according to an investigative analysis of comments on the forum. The user DarthTater has for more than a decade offered compliments (sometimes accompanied by a flame emoji) under every single photo uploaded to the site for hot dish appreciators.

The account also mentioned the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. in one post, in which it wished other HotOrNotDish.net users a “happy MLK weekend!” and hoped they would get to “spend it with family, eating hot dish.”

Alexandra Petri is a satiric genius.

I love that “HotOrNotDish.net” wasn’t a real URL until after that satirical article was published, but someone immediately bought it up and made it into a redirect for the Harris/Walz campaign fundraising site.

No, that it required the reprinting of ballots is absolutely relevant. By state law, the SBOE can refuse a late request to take a candidate’s name off of the ballot if impractical, and election officials are required to mail out ballots by Sept 6th. Kennedy withdrew five days after the deadline set by the SBOE to take his name off the ballot (and didn’t even announce he intended to suspend his campaign until after that deadline), so the SBOE was well within its statutory power to deny his request in the interest of ensuring that ballots were mailed on time, as required by law. The NC supreme court ruled that the state law didn’t matter and ballots had to be reprinted, which meant that they were not mailed as required by law. There is no difference between this state law and the one the court already chose to ignore.

This law (that absentee ballots are final today) is a federal law, which is a fundamental difference to the state law that NC chose to ignore. North Carolina has some choice in enforcing North Carolina law in a way that it doesn’t have a choice in following federal election law. :person_shrugging:
