What happened in Philadelphia is strange.
Trump’s crew were not allowed to inspect the votes at the usual 6 feet so they went to court yesterday morning which ruled that they could. Then, when the barrier was moved to 6 feet, they moved the counting machine to the back of the room. So Giuliani is arguing that anywhere they were not allowed to monitor the votes- they are illegal and I expect he is right.
Nope- this is a basic question- is a vote legal if its checks and counts cannot be monitored by both sides?
Nigel
If Giuliani says that it isn’t being monitored by both sides, do we actually believe him? Or is this more likely just more disruption and misinformation?
SOQ
Why else would they have gone to court in Philadelphia yesterday morning ?
Nigel
If they don’t have evidence, it’s just to be a pure nuisance, create confusion, and create a victim narrative for his supporters. Trump is a notorious litigant and he’s signalled his intention to use the courts if the outcome doesn’t go his way well in adavance, and has openly expressed a desire to let the Supreme Court decide the outcome.

I have to say, it’s not in the least surprising that all of the BS regulars (and possibly, editors) who believe in coronavirus conspiracies also buy-in to Trumpian election conspiracies.

Trump has just given a press conference.
Dire, pathetic stuff.
Nigel
Millions voted for that man, millions more voted for him again, and many of them believed he was enacting a devious masterplan to arrest a ring of wealthy and powerful paedophiles. Frankly we’re not giving Biden enough credit for going toe to toe against that level of inanity.
…which ‘nation’ do you refer to…mother Russia that Vladimir made truely great again?
Nigel
No. But you can pity them too if you like.

the democrats should hang their heads in shame. they couldn’t get their act together enough to provide a credible candidate in these last two elections. this one should have been a landslide. if you want a perfect example of leadership failure, take a bow the DNC.
Nigel
They are set to defeat an incumbent during a crisis where they were constrained by the pandemic but their oponnent was not and his supporters are ideological extremists locked in a disinformation bubble who treat him as the Messiah while up against the fearsome GOP election machine of smears and suppression and dirty tricks. Give then some credit.
That he has. Its a fascinating view – the tech along with his incredibly detailed and depth of electoral knowledge has made CNN the only channel to watch this time around. The other US news channels are static and staid by comparison.

‘I was at the TCF Center in Detroit yesterday as a non-partisan poll challenger. The woman in the maroon shirt with the black mask was one of the GOP challengers I monitored. At one point, she yelled that a ballot needed to be thrown out because it “looked sticky.”’
There’s also been an alleged plot to attack a count centre – the truck involved covered in Qanon stickers
More importantly, in the defamation case brought by Banks she has now been told by the judge she has 20 days to produce evidence to back up her claims that Banks had a secret relationship with the Russians and benefited from their backing.
The UK’s National Crime Agency investigated the allegations and didn’t find a shred of evidence.
Amazingly this is just about the only post on Broadsheet today that Tin Foil Hat Nigel, the self-proclaimed expert on all things Russian interference has failed to comment on.
I do hope he has contributed to her Crowdfunding page to carry on the good fight against dem Ruskies.
Heh,heh,heh.

Good news. The Covid numbers continue to go down.

As you know I’m a stickler for fairness in polls so here’s the latest YouGov which gives Labour a clear five point lead over the Tories.
What it doesn’t show is that the Tories are down at the expense of the Brexit Party which is almost level with the LibDems and this is before Nigel Farage has formally relaunched it as Reform UK with opposition to lockdowns as its new policy.
He hasn’t gone away you know …
Hi Broadsheet,
Earlier you carried pictures of the Syed funeral.
These are no longer here following a post which claimed they shouldn’t have been printed.
A picture and full report of the funeral is being carried online in the Irish Times. http://www.irishtimes.com/news/social-affairs/murdered-children-and-their-mother-laid-to-rest-in-single-plot-1.4402644
In the interests of the fairness,honesty and full disclosure on which you pride yourself do you not think you owe it to your followers to explain why you removed a post you intitially thought fit to publish and what were the editorial reasons behind it.
Coverage of funerals, particularly those of children, is an emotive subject but I don’t recall you ever removing stuff like this based on an objection from one of your followers.
I think it’s quite important if you wish to retain your integrity that you explain with a post of equal prominence.
Or perhaps you’re hoping no-one has noticed.
Bodger
Charger, the images were very upsetting for some and, as it added nothing to story of the deaths, I deleted the post. We’ve done this before with the coverage of funerals of children and adults, but they weren’t Muslim so possibly off your radar.
Charger Salmons
A cheap Muslim shot Bodger but you still didn’t answer why you printed the pictures in the first place.
You’re probably not aware that the Indian Embassy in Dublin arranged a live video stream of the burial so the idea that these pictures were somehow intrusive is palpable nonsense.
Since when did serious news organisations stop printing stories because they thought it might be upsetting.It’s a funeral not the bloody aftermath of an air attack on a hospital.
If you wish to be taken seriously as an authentic news source then you must have the courage to print stuff that is uncomfortable and challenging and not buckle under the slightest breath of wind.
Unless simpering thank yous for a nicely punning headline is all you’re in it for.
Charlie Hebdo you ain’t …
Bodger
‘Why you printed the pictures in the first place?’ They were powerful images and permission had been granted, but I agreed with those who felt they intruded on the mourners’ grief. The pictures were taken quite close up for a funeral.
Charger Salmons
Without labouring the point for legal reasons the family wanted these pictures printed.
That’s why they’re in close-up.
You took an editorial decision to print them and then changed your mind because of objections.
I saw a single post objecting to them.Perhaps there were more.
How many exactly ?
And under what grounds in future can I or anyone else object to what you’ve printed and have the post withdrawn ?
Seriously mate, these were not gruesome pictures.They’re poignant and sad because that’s what a funeral involving white coffins are.
If you’d never printed them in the first place perhaps I could understand but to print them and then fold in the face of objection is just weak.

Pity the rest of the nation that have to put up with that lot.

Cryptic?
