"A Maryland Republican who leads a right-wing coalition in Congress says North Carolina’s legislature should consider awarding Electoral College votes to former President Donald Trump before citizens’ votes are counted, according to Politico.

Rep. Andy Harris, the chairman of the Freedom Caucus, made the comments at a dinner on Thursday, saying the idea “makes a lot of sense” because the western part of the state, a rural area where Trump is popular, is still dealing with the impact of Hurricane Helene."

    If someone was smart they would have asked the 101st to dust off the old 2003 Iraqi voting procedures. They’re there and they have that knowledge base squirreled away somewhere. But no, instead we’re just going to assume things.
