Pennsylvania Republicans make an opening bid for election changes: ‘We have a god-awful’ law (2456 hits)


Republicans outlined a sweeping set of changes they hope to negotiate in time for next year’s elections, when open races for governor and U.S. Senate will be on the ballot.

As Republican lawmakers across the country have moved to tighten voting laws after former President Donald Trump’s lies about a stolen election, Pennsylvania’s GOP-controlled legislature has waited to act during months of hearings.

Now Republicans in Harrisburg are making their first moves, with the state House GOP releasing a report Monday that outlines a sweeping set of changes they hope to negotiate in time for next year’s elections, when open races for governor and U.S. Senate will be on the ballot.

The 99-page report from Rep. Seth Grove (R., York), chair of the House State Government Committee, summarizes testimony from elections administrators, advocates, and policy experts the committee gathered during 10 hearings.

“We have a god-awful election law, I’m not going to sugarcoat it,” Grove said in an interview Monday before the report’s release. “How do we improve access? We need to make voting easier, and harder to cheat. How do we make sure we have full accessibility for those who are legally allowed to vote, with the right security, integrity provisions put in there to make sure you do have a secure election, minimizing any disenfranchisement?”

Hey Republicans, first you must identify the problem. Was this election secure? Was the recount done accurately?

Amen.

...As Long as Khalif Ali believes it is an election advancement over olde Racistly Ignorant rizzo-russianSTYLE election Law OK.

1. I never liked to travel THROUGH the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania -- RIZZO era -- #1 (Cheating Elections/Mafia Law)

2. I agree that the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania seems/seemed an ODD State/Commonwealth?

3. How did the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania elect a Legislative Branch that is "majority Republican"?

...Does the majority Democrat.. VOTE or are they god-awfully not VOTING or NOT allowed to VOTE?

That's a good question Robert. I think it might be because the Governor is Democrat and that keeps the Republican legislators in line. And the Supreme Court is Democrat. Where I am, I'm surrounded by Democrats. I was surprised but Trump brought them all out.

Steve, did The House State Government Committee who held ten hearings with roughly 31.5 hours of total hearing time and hearing from 52 total testifiers including 7 House Members. Several of the testifiers participated in multiple hearings.

WOW Steve, was your case brought up?

Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
It depend on what you mean by "these changes" Ron. There were changes in 2019 by the Legislature, and changes in 2020 by Executive and Judicial officials. Other changes by the Legislature will be considered in 2021.

This man just wants to keep you, Ignorant Robert. here's what my dictionary definition of the word " God-awful " (adjective)
extremely unpleasant. "it had been the most godawful forty-eight hours"

Definition of god-awful : extremely unpleasant or disagreeable : abominable god-awful weather First Known Use of god-awful 1877, in the meaning defined above

What does the book The Awful grace of God say?

He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain, which cannot forget, falls drop by drop upon the heart, until, in our own despair. against our will, comes wisdom through the awful grace of God. — Aeschylus. A few weeks ago, I came across the phrase, “the awful grace of God,” in a novel I was reading — Ordinary Grace by William Kent Krueger.

Here are some synonyms to the term god-awful:

foul · nasty · unpleasant · bad · disagreeable · horrid · horrible · dreadful · abominable · atrocious · offensive · obnoxious · odious · unsavory · repulsive · off-putting · repellent · revolting · repugnant · disgusting · distasteful · loathsome · hateful · nauseating · sickening · base · low · mean · wretched · disgraceful · appalling · shocking · ugly · vulgar · sorry · shabby · shameful · dishonorable · execrable · heinous · abhorrent · deplorable · monstrous · wicked · evil · dark · dirty · vicious · iniquitous · sinful · corrupt · sordid · depraved · perverted · debased · reprobate · degenerate · debauched · dissolute · contemptible · despicable · reprehensible · diabolical · diabolic · devilish · fiendish · hellish · damnable · yucky · sick-making · gut-churning · icky · gross · lowdown · rotten · sick · beastly · bogging · lousy · vomitous · noisome · scurvy · disgustful · loathly · egregious · flagitious.

Robert, I only hope you now have a better understanding of the term god-awful’ and that is the understanding everywhere English is spoken.

...thank YouALL for giving a guy better understanding of youAlls debate

So Republicans in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania MEAN.....gobsmacked....?

The Law that PA-Republicans Represent in 6/21 is from England and Scotland, where it is used as slang to express extreme shock.

...OR as the deaCON from Scotland England understands

The Law that PA-Republicans Represent in 6/21 is extremely unpleasant; maybe(diabolic · devilish · fiendish · hellish)

...OR as urban Philly, Pittsburg or chicago might understand

The Law that PA-Republicans Represent in 6/2 .... "sucks really bad"

....Oh well, godsmacked, "sucks really bad" Lawyers of Grove's committee...received 280 "Pennsylvania voter"

responses, with the top five concerns being, voter ID, mail-in ballots, lack of trust in voting machines, signature verification

and the timeline for when mail-in ballots need to be received. These responses gave greater insight on the concerns voters

have across the Commonwealth and how the committee can address these issues for future elections...."

...The Commonwealth had 6,835,903 VOTES in 11/2020.......280 is 0.0040960207% of Voters

WOW....what a gobsmacked Number ..0.0040960207% is!

"vacation in lovely Pennsylvania"!

I appreciate your thoughtful commentary Robert. I don't think the founding principal of America, a Union of States, is what urban America wants anymore. They would be happy without Pennsylvania or any other state. Just one big happy America represented by some Manuel Macron type.
