I dropped off my ballot at the ballot box on Saturday and I'm waiting for it to get processed.

How’d you end up voting for prop 25?

fauxkaren October 13 2020, 00:41:33 UTC

I voted 'no' on 25. Ending cash bail is good, but the system they came up with to replace it is bad. So I voted 'no' because they need to go back to the drawing board and come up with something better.

dumpweeds October 13 2020, 00:45:21 UTC

Yeah that’s what I’m leaning towards too. Really hope this doesn’t kill cash bail reform tho

so it's like a foregone conclusion that she'll be confirmed? and the dem senators are doing nothing to delay it? like truly what is the point of having them represent us if they won't work in our best interests, i can call john cornyn and ted cruz all the do diddly day and they won't listen and senate democrats are just like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

doverz October 13 2020, 00:31:15 UTC

She's going to be confirmed. The Democrats can stall as much as possible (and they should be but I don't know what they can actually do during a committee hearing), but she's going to get confirmed. I mean, I'm sure we have who knows how many Republicans who are positive in the Committee hearing who are refusing to get tested so they can keep the hearing going. If Republicans are willing to put people's lives in danger where they could contract COVID and suffer/die, there's not much the Democrats can ultimately do.

But, obviously, they should be trying.

they absolutely could be kicking up more of a fuss, how can an impeached imbecile have 3 justices confirmed during his term without more pushback

doverz October 13 2020, 00:49:48 UTC

Yeah, but there really is little they can do.

I think it speaks to an overall larger failure of the Democrats to understand the long game in regards to the courts like the Republicans did. Our only real hope is to win the Presidency and to win the Senate so we can get rid of the filibuster and pack the courts.
