VOTE! 2024 UNITED STATES PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION THREAD

[_account]

You can’t do a national census on a whim.

It's not a national census, it's a district level census.

In a district that is guaranteed to vote left, you can import migrants and rush the census results, if the population of an area increases the electoral vote (s) increases for said area, even if the number of registered voters stays the same.

You can't just rush people into a state to add another representative. They only adjust it every once in a while on commission of congress or something

Electoral votes and representatives are related but not decided the same. For example, Texas gained two electoral votes last election cycle while NY, Pennsylvania and Michigan lost 1 electoral vote. None of these States gained or lost seats in the house, though.

Yes, it gained two seats as a result of the 2020 census. The same number of representatives it gained, as a result of the census. Texas had 36 representatives in the 2016 and 2020 elections, and now it has 38, adding 2 senators makes 40 electors. This seems to make sense

I didn't know that Texas gained representatives albiet,
however, the census bureau is allowed (as ruled by the supreme court) to begin tallying census results up to 3 years before congressional approval

If we're schizoing out about immigrants compromising the election, this might be a reason why trump blocked that bill! boosting the electors from these republican border states geg.

 

[dataminedandproud]

It would be extremely funny and ironic if all the immigrants from the last 4 years voted for Trump and not Harris geg

albeit they know kamala will give them more money and some even support abortion

I thought I was talking to a legitimate political observer but then you pull out the old "bipartisan border bill". That bill is really about decriminalizing illegal immigration, and if you think trump has the influence to kill a bill YOU are schizophrenic, if he had that kind of juice in Washington he'd still be president

 

[Anomaly]

Sad that netanyahu isn't running!

>That bill is really about decriminalizing illegal immigration
literally where in the bill does it say that. you can read, in the summary, on that page, exactly what it does.
>if you think trump has the influence to kill a bill YOU are schizophrenic
literally nobody disagrees with this. nobody denies this. mitch mcconnell himself said it was trump who made them block it. ‘our nominee for president did not seem to want us to do anything at all’. the entire republican party is cucked out to this guy.
>if he had that kind of juice in Washington he'd still be president
He had EXECUTIVE AUTHORITY, he was THREATENING THE CAREER of the attorney general and he tried to force him to LIE about voter fraud so he could coup the government.
But fortunately there are still some people in government, bureaucrats and lawmakers, that still care about the integrity of the democracy and are loyal to the constitution.
Just because he can bully those pathetic pig fucks in the republican party by sicing his unhinged cult followers on them, doesn't mean you can replace the government tomorrow.
