With that few votes it's not going to generate much discussion. It's not that it doesn't matter it's just that it is too small for anyone to pay attention to. Things like this are a good argument for county consolidation. Texas is one of many states with far too many counties.

Bush will easily beat Gore

Bush was leading in every poll since 1997. Until the October surprise with the DUI, Bush was on track to win the popular and electoral vote.

Gore rolled a 5. He needed a 6

The 2000 election is another good reminder that it ain’t over until it’s over!

Going about as well as you'd expect so far.

Fuentes is never beating the allegations

You mean to tell me that Trump needs to be targeting the states that were the closest last election? Nonsense.

Well, he can defend the 90% number by claiming that the rest of Haley primary voters were not Republican and even then, the math does not add up.  And frankly in a tight race, even 10% of primary voters is yooge!

I would view that comment more as a signal and as public negotiations with Haley.  He wants to lower her price for coming to him (not sure whether just for endorsement or as a VP).  I doubt that flea market bargaining strategy will work but we shall see.

Oh geez, how many times have we heard this over the last nine years?

“Don’t worry, folks — I know Trump’s statement seems like a complete lie if you just go by the facts, but if you let me dissect it for the next 15 minutes, you’ll see it actually makes a lot of sense and is a brilliant political 3D chess move!”

Not buying it!

Bu bu Trump quoted wrong numbers about a settled primary he won in a landslide. He’s a dumb idiot and mentally unsound.

Unrelatedly it’s totally normal to forget how and in what country your son died, that’s easy to mess up.

I think the important thing that we all need to remember here is that Paul Pelosi isn't a saint guys.

I wonder (seriously) if Rudy may have fled the country.  His life is pretty much in ruins if he stays in the U.S.

Sometimes, I truly wonder if these people would sell their mothers and their children into bondage just for the sake of Israel.

If this was any other country on Earth, like, let's say Bolivia or Kyrgyzstan, I'll bet you a chorus of voices would've already been calling for their impeachment and resignation for prioritizing the needs of a foreign country, consequences be damned, over our own. But funnily enough, this standard is conveniently never applied to the so-called "greatest ally."

Case of the assaulted Nepali child is raising doubts

The case of a 9-year-old Nepalese child allegedly attacked by classmates at a school in Amadora is raising some doubts.

It was during a telephone interview with Rádio Renascença that Ana Mansoa, director of the Centro Padre Alves Correia, revealed attacks on a 9-year-old boy.

In the same interview she said that there were five attackers and a sixth, who filmed everything and shared it on the internet and also said that the child had open wounds, which were treated at home because the mother was afraid of going to the hospital and that even today the child has nightmares about the case.

Two days after the interview was released, the Ministry of Education went public to say that the information it had was contrary.

Only after insistence did the Padre Alves Correia Center agree to collaborate with the ministry and said that the attacks took place in a school in Amadora.

However, the Ministry realized through management that the only Nepali students enrolled in the school are secondary school students, meaning there are no 9-year-old Nepali children enrolled there.

Therefore, the school says it is unaware of the alleged episode of aggression or any similar situation and has not received any information.

Ana Mansoa ended up releasing another statement this Thursday morning to say that the information had been transmitted to the competent authorities.

To SIC, the PSP says that it learned about the case through the media, despite trying to collect information to forward to the Public Ministry.

The Government wants to better understand the case and has asked for an assessment.

Despite the doubts that arose with the statement from the Ministry of Education, the center that publicized the case says it will not say anything more to the media so as not to harm the child's well-being.

This story is so weird...

BTW thank you to President Johnson for (intentionally or not) injecting some much-needed humor into this thread. It kinda makes me think of this Family Guy clip, just replace "Sweden" with "Germany":
