      If Texas turns blue, Republicans will blame immigrants instead of their unpopular policies that got it there.

        100% and I will keep enjoying my Tex-mex. Thank you immigrants for some seasoning on this bland white ppl food.

        If Texas turns blue, the 2020 post-election period is going to look like rainbows compared to what the GOP will do this year.

          I mean Pence had to turn them in to be radified last time, does Harris not do it now because some weird rule? If it’s not her I assume it would be Johnson and he might try to deny them.

            Congress (back when it was functional- you know, when the Dems were in control) passed a law codifying the VP’s role in elections is only to certify the results. So in theory she wouldn’t be able to question it the way Pence could have (though as I understand it, even the idea that Pence could have delayed cert was on shaky legal ground, but at least now that ground has been completely knocked out).

            Ethically, you’d expect that since the VP is running for President that she’d step aside of the process and let the President Pro-Tem handle it (unlike Georgia’s current governor, who was secretary of state and refused to recuse himself from his own election) though I don’t think there is any legal requirement for her to do so.
