  1. He was strapped to the table for hours before injection and the order that allowed him to be put to death may have expired hours before his execution so the state is just doing away with the pretense of legality for this!
  2. Even just making it consistently competitive I think may cause a rethinking of how they waste millions of R voters in "blue" states. I dunno! It's not a solid theory but I can only see any Rs getting on board after Texas is no longer a layup
  3. Gonna take consecutive losses in a purple Texas before this happens realistically.
  4. For swing voting 65+ block which will hold more away: bursima or die for the economy? The world may never know!
  5. These will not work in the face of a massive recession and pandemic, and that trump and the republican party doesn't realize this is great for biden's chances This isn't 5 months ago when millions more people had a job
  6. I'm more curious than I should be to see who won the precinct with Bryant Denny stadium
  7. My greatest wish is that Dems win the Senate (and white house obvs), and they are sworn in on Jan 1, then RBG kicks it on Jan 2 (or 20th I don't care) and either way trump tries to nominate someone for the effort to fall flat
  8. Just have a developer cut you a check! Cheaper than a lawyer for variances and community meetings and delays and everything else. There'd need to be a formula for it to prevent abuse but it's a thought that could work. Some research would have to go into this I'm just not aware of
  9. They have probably the biggest organized YIMBY contingent in the country. Things are that bad there! They're not really exempt, but they have a fairly organized counter that is starting to make headway. (Or at least that is my perception based on my urbanist media spheres)
  10. I would expect many would be open to some of these arguments but for one major issue: white liberals! See here NIMBYs are powerful, and outside of SF, they run cities, and isn't just limited to blocking anti racist items, but more banal things which might, maybe, tangentially affect their property values.
