Everyone posting here will have a bias of some kind or other , yes even Mods - That is human nature.

But , the suggestion that there is an "institutional bias" at a site/organisation level driven by some command structure that says "only allow opinion X or Y" is completely incorrect.

Ah yeah but there's a clear bias on this thread anyway, I say that as someone who's happy that Biden won.

Georgia too. And he's the guy who recommended other Boards users give their money to an obvious scam.

Some states have laws against faithless electors, but you're right for the most part. The main reason it's a thing is when electors used to have to travel long ways for the final vote and news didn't travel quickly in those days so was a mechanism to change the vote if new info came to light.

Sure but it is an Irish board and will be heavily connected with Irish people. Ireland these days is slightly to the left of the democratic party so are hardly going to go for Trump in large numbers.

There are literally thousands of threads on Irish politics, going back years and years, on Boards.

Maybe they're invisible to whiny Trumpists?

Like 99% of your posts, attacking other boards members. Very bitter mind you have there Sondagefaux.

Curious_Case

I think the conspiracy may run deeper than any of us have previously imagined --

The dastardly Dems may have intercepted consignments of Covid vaccines and replaced said vaccines with Biden votes.

A "lot" of people are saying it,
"Everyone" knows it,
But the "fake media" aren't reporting it.

Biden is racking up votes in California, New York, etc.

Still another 34% of the vote to be counted in California, that is going to increase the difference by another couple of million at least. They are just in no rush to get to the final count as it makes no difference to the EC part of the result.

Biden could be up to 6 or 7 million advantage in the popular vote by the time they complete everywhere.

Nearly a grand if he cashed out.

Fake news.

Discussions about Irish politics, and politicians and Peter Casey are as intense at appropriate times. Check out threads on the formation of the last government, Leo's escapades, the Maria Bailey affair for reference.

But right now this 'death by a thousand cuts' Donald is undergoing is the biggest topic on the planet.

Over 20 states have laws requiring the Electoral College voters in those states to vote in line with the democratic result, on a First Past The Post basis.

Maybe if you had wandered out of the GAA forum once in a while you would have seen lots of posts about biffo, Ahern, NAMA, bank bailouts, ECB, etc

And what happens in the US has huge fooking ramifications for little old Ireland or maybe you don't realise how many people in Ireland work for US mulitnationals including those in Mayo that work for Baxters, Allergan, Hollister, Coca Cola, Lionbridge.

And if anything someone with your name should be cheering for Biden with his Mayo roots unlike that orange gimp that the fookers in Clare are lauding.

Here's the thing though - He has to give them something to work with.

They can't just "give" him the Election , they actually need a scale to put their thumb on.

Right now , he has absolutely nothing to bring to the court beyond Bluster and rage.

Yes this is very true. It won't stop him trying though. It's not as if he'll listen to any of his advisors. Mitch McConnell is going to have to say something, even then Donald will try to ignore it.

Topic notwithstanding, we are a representative democracy and do not directly elect our leaders. Dail arithmetic dictates who gets to be Taoiseach and that leads you straight to blaming voters for their electoral choices, which is not awfully democratic.

As for the country 4,000 miles away, their economy and leadership can affect all of us, so it's a pretty big deal.

Met him when he came home the last time. Nice man, but can't see him been allowed to make the decisions.

Yes, to have more Biden supporters in natural but that's not what we were discussing.

Listening to Trump and his crew it’s like some alien invasion against their own people and country. They’re attacking their own people, their own institutions, their own laws and their own constitution..

It’s absolutely baffling...

No thought or regard whatsoever for anybody but themselves...

It’s like they are fighting an enemy. But the enemy is themselves and their country and their people..

mitch not exactly rebutting trump's nonsense.

I am trying to figure Rick Santorum (keep thinking of him as Rick Scrotum) as he tried to remain Republican saying that they of course should investigate issues but yet not be foaming at the mouth like Donnie.

Biden is racking up votes in California, New York, etc.

He's likely to get around 80 million votes in total. An incredible achievement.
