the moral of this story is that Stella Parton had a PAPER BALLOT that corroborated the computer glitch.
READ UP ON YOUR STATE’S VOTING PROCESS
each state & territory has their own elections boards. voting and vote counting machines vary from state to state.
that’s why many folks in states with all electronic voting in-person are choosing mail-in ballots; but you may have the option to get a paper ballot if you ask for one. check your state’s rules…🧵

Dolly Parton's sister, Stella Parton, says that a voting machine in Tennessee repeatedly switched her selection to Republican Marsha Blackburn, so she had to correct her ballot paper three times before she could vote. She's not alone. Other voters in Tennessee have reported similar issues while trying to vote for Democrats.

Washington voters will decide Nov. 3 whether to repeal the state's brand new 9.9% tax on income over $1 million, before it ever collects a single dollar.

The FBI #AntiCorruption Squad Was Circling #SusanCollins — Until #Trump Got in the Way
by William Turton, Avi Asher-Schapiro, Molly Redden and Kirsten Berg

"Reporting Highlights
- Probe: In 2024, the FBI sought to launch a sweeping pay-to-play investigation examining interactions between Sen. Susan Collins and a top donor, records and emails show.
- Confession: The donor, an ex-defense contractor, told agents his company won millions in federal contracts by bankrolling campaigns of powerful politicians.
- Shutdown: After Donald Trump returned to office, the investigation died, a casualty of his purge of the FBI. Its closure shut a potential window into how Washington works."

Shame on you, England.

Grauniad editorial.
"The first-past-the-post model used to elect local authorities in England is ill-suited to multiparty politics. It was already flawed in the era when political competition was defined by the rivalry between Labour and the Conservatives. Smaller parties were locked out. Too many voters felt their ballots counted for nothing in safe seats.
But there is an additional perversity when four or five parties have poll ratings somewhere between the high teens and high twenties. The threshold for victory drops. The winning candidate might have been opposed by a clear majority. The average winner’s vote share in last year’s local elections was 40.7% – the lowest on record. About 75 candidates were elected on vote shares lower than 30%."

i co-wrote, with other feminist bloggers, a letter to the US Congress asking them to reject Samuel Alito for #SCOTUS.
the lawyers in the group had a long list of cases but there was one case that stood out. we all agreed it was THE red flag about his extremism:
HIS CRUELTY TOWARDS A BLACK TEENAGE GIRL in a decision that allowed prosecutors to treat her as an adult instead of a child.
that case felt like a foreshadow of this #MAGA coup & #civilWar#USpol #racism #fascism #elections2026

But Sam Alito just cannot handle a dissent from Brown that explains that he and the other Roberts Court judges who went along with him are nakedly using their privilege and authority to advantage the Republican Fascist Party and its white supremacist agenda. 7/
Open quoted post"It was quite an eye-opener peering into the misinformation that surrounds these bubbles, with Reformers fuming over a Sikh kebab owner arrested for refusing to sell Halal meat (he wasn’t), championing the Japanese government for banning Islam (they didn’t), and seething over bizarre AI-generated images of a taxpayer-funded water park in Croydon (there isn’t one)."
