It’s nice to hear from the government

Looks like it’s time to write the next entry, have to wait for Senedd to return first …

🚨Can the personal vote "travel across districts" in an OLPR electoral system and with what results? David Arter and I find out in this new article 👇journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/02…

I think Tim Walz is the kind of guy who, when you’re visiting with him, says, “hey, sport, I washed your car and checked the oil already - what route you taking home, by the way?” #TimWalz #HarrisWalz2024

So we’re calling him Coach Walz for the campaign? …okay.

Damn proud to be an American.

It’ll be interesting. After how much they fought to get RFK ON the ballot…

New: The North Carolina State Board of Elections votes 3-2 that RFK Jr. will stay on the ballot despite ending his presidential bid and asking to be taken off of the ballot. The board said because so many ballots have already been printed it would be too difficult logistically

To relax (…yes, I know…) I figured I’d do a weekly write up on the US vice presidents, three at a time, from Adams to Harris. pgilfus.substack.com/p/the-veep-chr…
