American Bridge – GEORGIA (2) (the CC on the second one is in Korean and I couldn’t change them. Auto translate didn’t work.)
Meidas Touch – Georgia – Well, this is a shocker. Did you ever expect to agree with Matt Gaetz on ANYTHING?
Michigan Attorney General

Beau – Sometimes shining a light on facts is more powerful than throwing shade. This is complex but extremely interesting. (We all need more civics.)

And this is why we need to win the Senate races in Georgia.
Really American – So, is electronic voting safe?

I really hope this embed works, because the Twitter original didn’t have CC, and she’s so British, I think it’s needed for all of us. (She has more out, and they now have CC, but it’s small.

Happy Guy Fawkes Day, if anyone cares (actually yesterday.) Besides the two runoffs n Georgia, there will also be a runoff in North Carolina for Senate. That’s three chances we have. I believe we need two. I featured Rev. Raphael Warnock yesterday, and Jon Ossoff today. I could not find anything new from Cal Cunningham, bu will not be ignoring him. TC, that fat lady might want to save a little breath.
I heard about this last night but it took me till this morning to find it. And I think it’s important.
And I also heard about this one, and it was posted in a comment to the previous one. Sometimes Anderson does come up with a quotable.
The Lincoln Project for Ossoff (v. Perdue). He may not be all that liberal, but he is brutally honest, and I want him in the Senate.
This scene from “Hitler” has been parodied before, but it’s now been re-parodied for this occasion.
Wow, so Trump can’t just stop the vote count? pic.twitter.com/HBBwvS79pF

Hoo boy, does Beau ever speak for me today.

An Amendment petition
Stop Republicans
(Full disclosure: The National Popular Vote Compact PASSED in Colorado so it’s now law. However, laws such as this are more easily overturned than Constitutional Amendments, so it’s still worth pursuing an amendment – and besides, the NPV is not up to 270 yet.)
And more “Count the Vote” petitions
Democratic Conservation Alliance
Fight for Reform
And here’s a thought:
Stop Republicans

One clip – it’s long, but it’s actually multiple segments punctuated by fake – satirical – ads – four of them (All available as separate clips if you care)
The Wayne’s World takeoff with Julia Hatfield is also available as a separate clip.

Not really long enough for a post – but too important to ignore, or delay, and it just came in.
The Election Integrity Project held a seminar just this morning, and Eric Smalley, technology editor for The Conversation, attended and felt this information was the most important to share:
- Russian efforts, by way of the shadowy Internet Research Agency, are focused on amplifying claims by Americans of fraud by Democrats, but unlike 2016 the Russian participation is getting dramatically less traction.
- A major concern is entities purporting to be livestreaming video but who are in fact using old and/or unrelated video to create a false narrative. This was first seen during the George Floyd protests.
- The danger zone is the time between the polls closing and results coming in. People will be anxiously watching for news and information, and entities pushing disinformation/misinformation will attempt to fill the news vacuum.
- Things the Election Integrity Project is watching:
There is likely to be lots of online video showing incidents of intimidation that will be rapidly decontextualized and used to delegitimize the election.
Both Facebook and Twitter will be labeling problematic posts, but only Twitter disallows sharing of those posts. Will Facebook need to follow suit?
And when I say share, I mean share. This was in an email from The Conversation. Feel free to share the inforation with friends and family.
