In case you're wondering why I've left this site, while it came months later, it certainly didn't help that Twitter HQ has decided that it's totally okay to describe one of my legal analysis posts as "Jews doing jewish things.". Find me on Bluesky.

I still have a lot of friends and acquaintances on this platform who were I-don't-like-Trump-but-I-can't-elect-Harris-so-I'm-hoping-for-the-best, and this repeated assault on the rule of law from Musk (who has been ceded more power than anyone imagined) has to be horrifying them.

Awful experience with @thriftycars at TPA today. Reserved w/Manager's Special, only to learn that only allowed for EVs & no gas-fueled cars. We are pro-EV, but have no idea what charging abilities are while traveling, esp. with no notice. Next best option 2x $. Bait-and-switch.

Thank you so much for volunteering for our voter protection team. And Andrea is amazing. We need to fight *for* every voter because Team McCormick is fighting against as many as they can.
@adambonin I was with Andrea for two days in Philly. The GOP is 100% trying to disenfranchise voters.

Sigh. So much misinfo again today. No one is trying to count votes from unregistered people. This is categorically false. What’s actually happening is the GOP is trying to throw out timely cast votes from registered voters. Again.

As a veteran of this process, let me clarify because I've seen some wrong takes on what Seth said: "need to be adjudicated" means just that—the staff sets aside certain issues for a Board vote. At that point, many will be approved for counting. Don't confuse "may" with "will.".
We have now scanned 6,601 provisional ballots out of the original estimated 20K. We’ve completed the initial review of an additional ~12K ballots. Of those, ~9K will need to be adjudicated by the Board of Elections and may not count.
