Trump (cont): Nothing to see here, nope not a Russian in sight

[CaveMum]

Sorry for the rubbish title but I couldn't see a new thread!

That email is actually a bit embarrassing.

'So the Prime Minister can call an election whenever they like, whenever it most benefits them. How is that allowed?' - US reaction #GE2017

It would be nice, Pain, I grant you. Not critical though.

Eric Trump actually complained about those who "sit behind a computer and send a mean tweet."

The blinders are strong with this one.

Has Laurie Penny actually included who this 'US reaction' was from?

Some people want Daddy to love them bigly.

This is how dictatorships speak. Giving the Tories a landslide victory will mean all dissent is treated as treason, just like this. twitter.com/bbcnews/status/854452742454169601 …

A #DACA recipient was deported in the middle of the night without access to a lawyer. We're suing to find out what happened. #JusticeForJuan

Polls in Georgia close at 7 p.m. Eastern. Keep this page open for live results when they come in.

www.nytimes.com/elections/results/georgia-house-special-election-district-6?smid=tw-nytimes&smtyp=cur

Ah. You popped me to it. Should have known that you wouldn't be able to resist it!

I've got that page up,however, I know I saw somewhere that 2 polling stations were being held open later until 755pm, so that might delay things.

I don't like the sound of these voters being turned away. Anyone know the significance of the voting machines (not sure if that's the technical term) being stolen a few days ago?

Ah. They got hold of the judge then?

Potentially, not of huge significance in the overall picture if I recall. You can be fairly sure, though, that the Dem lawyers will be all over it if the results are close - so don't worry. (Too much.)

First results apparently expected around 12.30. I'd go to bed.

President Trump shatters a fundraising record, collecting $107 million for the inauguration cnn.it/2py1OoG

Shame it didn't result in........ greater pictures.

I wonder how many people got turned off GOP and voted Dem after seeing Trump and Co's aggressive tweeting and dirty tactics??

Sorry - I was going to say 'Biglier' but my courage failed me.
