Or upside down, for distress.
Who's not in office anymore, hmmm?“We’re gonna continue to serve the community, I don’t care what these woke politicians want to do. But hopefully one day they're not going to be in office anymore,” Villanueva told Fox News in February.
Call and raise: FOX: Schumer skips over Feinstein, 89, for Senate president pro tem, third in presidential line of succession:
Murray, 72, has two fewer months of seniority than Feinstein.Current Senate pro tem Patrick Leahy retiring at end of year
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer told Democrats on Wednesday that he won't nominate Sen. Dianne Feinstein, 89, to be the Senate president pro tempore in the next Congress amid ongoing of speculation about her mental acuity.
A source familiar with the caucus discussion told Fox News on Tuesday that Schumer, D-N.Y., will instead pick Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., for the job.
The Senate president pro tempore is a position laid out by the Constitution to chair the Senate when the vice president is not present. It's a largely powerless office as Senate party leaders control legislative traffic on the floor.
The Presidential Succession Act, however, makes the president pro tempore third in the line of succession if the president of the United States dies, following the vice president and House speaker.
Or be appointed to it if Feinstein retires. (And then run to fill the remainder of her term, and then stand for election for the full term in 2024.)
I am speculating about the mental acuity of whoever wrote that sentence.... amid ongoing of speculation about her mental acuity.
For the first time in years, more Americans will live in a state fully controlled by Democrats than in one fully controlled by Republicans. Thanks to their wins in gubernatorial or state-legislative elections, Democrats took complete control of three new state governments in the 2022 elections: Michigan, Minnesota and Vermont. They broke the GOP monopoly on power in Arizona and, potentially, New Hampshire. They also kept full control of state government in four of the five states where they were in danger of losing it. And they prevented Republicans from taking full control of North Carolina, Wisconsin and maybe even Alaska.
Just checking, are we still okay with Nate Silver's team's postdictions?bob wrote: ↑Thu Nov 17, 2022 3:55 pm 538: The Midterms Made State Governments Bluer:For the first time in years, more Americans will live in a state fully controlled by Democrats than in one fully controlled by Republicans.

There's a thread on Is Political Polling Meaningful Anymore?. As for me on the question of Nate's postdictions... I find it disingenuous to avoid mentioning how unlikely the actual outcome was given their forecast and not giving a complete analysis of the difference between their final projections and the actual vote margins. It's almost as if they don't want to verify the accuracy of their methodology, they just want to keep doing the same thing as long as they can get page clicks and advertising revenue.Ben-Prime wrote: ↑Fri Nov 18, 2022 1:20 pmJust checking, are we still okay with Nate Silver's team's postdictions?bob wrote: ↑Thu Nov 17, 2022 3:55 pm 538: The Midterms Made State Governments Bluer:For the first time in years, more Americans will live in a state fully controlled by Democrats than in one fully controlled by Republicans.
