Trump kicked off Maine ballot.

The People's Republic movement has now been officially commenced in removing any and all political opponents off their ballots on accusations alone. By doing so, and of course within the careful people's fair and just constitutional, one mind, one party, one voice authority, the eventual goal will be only comrade Biden whom will be the only one remaing on the ballot, with of course, all our other loyal one mind , one party, one voice , compatriots, loyal to the motherland will remain all backing up our glorious and supreme leader of the land.

Glory to the motherland! The peoples revolution has begun against the coup loving fascists!

The group I play Euchre with has a pool going as to how many states will disqualify trump from the ballot before the Supreme Court makes its ruling.
If there is no ruling by the election, all the money in the pool goes to charity.

 

[Estro Felino]

I approve of their decision. I applaud them.

Only the Democratic Party must remain on the ballot.

Decency is on the ballot.
Decency in the choice of their own staff. Of senators' and congresspeople's aides.

DC is buzzing about a Senate sex scandal. What it says about the way we discuss gay sex.

Experts wonder whether the incident would have been treated differently had the sex in question been straight. It speaks to a discomfort with gay sex.

Trump is a swine, because he is a heterosexual male who likes beautiful women. An unforgivable sin.

Wow, just wow, do you really think that little of the American condition?

is this also a 'serious' heterosexual male bashing thread?

I should check the memos more often....

That's sarcasm.
I mean that dems want to exclude Trump because of that. He is straight.

 

[McBell]

That's sarcasm.

What?
They want Trump removed because he straight?
So it has nothing to do with his "track record" as President?

Pull the other one.
It has bells on it.

He's not straight, he's crooked.

Clever crooks keep a low profile, they don't draw attention to their obvious crookedness. Trump is a crook who didn't have sense to keep schtum. Why would you want a person like that running your country?

Likes to rape women.

It will depend on the bias of the state officials deciding, and on the exact wording of state's requirements, how many states will disqualify him. Contrary to Twilight Hue's outrage, states do have requirements for being on their ballots. And they aren't aimed at excluding any particular party. They are aimed at excluding criminals and traitors. Including those that aspire to being criminals and traitors. Trump has already been convicted of fraud and has said himself many times that he has no respect for the rule of law or the democratic process or even the principals of democracy.

So the real question is why don't ALL states disqualify convicted criminals and self avowed traitors from running for office?

I deeply respect the decision of the single states to disqualify Trump on the grounds of his past conduct.
I do respect that.

Just let me tell you that in my country nobody crucified Trump for that goliardic talk on that bus. That recording. Quite the opposite. Many appreciated his taste as for women.
On the contrary...all media are talking about the steamy, gay sex activities in the Senate hearing room and are scandalized. I guess we will have something to laugh about for the next 50 years. Thanks to the Democratic Party.

It's cultural: here l'homme heterosexuel, c'est une star.

My guess: excluding Trump for his treason feels unjust to you because you agree with him... right?

Nobody's the villain of their own story, so you won't condemn Trump if it means condemning yourself.

The credibility of the Democratic Party is below zero, right now.
Since nobody has taken a clear stance on that video recorded in the Senate hearing room.
The secrets are popping out like pop corn, I mean...it turns out the sexual activities at the Capitol are frequent.

He cannot compare with the decency of the Democratic Party's staffers.

Trump does not love women. He only loves himself.
He uses and abuses women for only his own pleasure, he has no thought for them at all.
He has no concept of honesty decency or righteousness.
He is as far from being a gentleman as a caddish oaf can go.

I am the most tolerant person on Earth. I really couldn't care less what people do in their privacy.
They can have sex with whomever they want.

I don't tolerate double standards. That is, the Democratic Party has started a crusade against Donald Trump's sex life, whereas they didn't say a word about the rumors of intense sexual activities within the walls of Capitol Hill.

Your understanding of the US zeitgeist is wildly askew. And you refuse to be corrected even by the folks that live here. So honestly, you have nothing of value to say about it.

I just tell what I perceive: democrats tend to trivialize politics, which is something very serious.

In Brussels, for example, parliamentarians don't speak of politicians' private life. Someone said that during the short four years of Trump's administration, there were zero wars, the situation was improving on so many levels, geopolitically, in the Old Continent.
Let's not forget that the Ukrainian War was the result of very bad diplomatic actions between East and West.

Serious question to anyone who knows: can a candidate that is removed from a ballot still be written in? I mean, they probably can, but will the vote be counted?

I couldn't find anything conclusive in a Google search.

I couldn't find anything conclusive in a Google search.

It varies from state to state. Some states don't allow write-in candidates at all, some require write-in candidates to file paperwork, some you can just write them in and that's that.

Write-in candidates for federal and state elections | USAGov

Writing in a name on a ballot does not mean that vote will count. Get the facts on how to write in eligible candidates for federal and state elections.

In all cases, though, a vote for an ineligible candidate would be recorded as an invalid or spoiled ballot. The fact that a ballot was submitted would be reflected in overall stats like voter turnout, but it wouldn't result in valid votes for an invalid candidate.

While pubs just ride roughshod over politics and the constitution.

Eh? The war in Ukraine was the result of Putin ordering Russia troops to invade the country
