Georgia's governor signs a comically transparent law. It makes local elections in 5 big blue counties nonpartisan, to give GOP candidates a chance to win without a party label in places like Atlanta. And it doesn't change anything in the rest of the state, for red counties to know who's GOP.

Brian Kemp signs law making many metro Atlanta races nonpartisan
The law applies to most local government races in Democratic-dominated areas. A court challenge is expected.

What's happening here is that the Missouri secretary of state is stalling certifying these signatures even though they were submitted in DECEMBER, basically ignoring the constitutional process to make sure his party wins an extra seat.

Breaking: Tennessee Republicans pass new 9-0 gerrymander after SCOTUS destruction of Voting Rights Act eliminating state’s only majority-Black district & last Democratic seat. Splits Memphis, which is 63% Black, into 3 districts to disenfranchise Black voters. Quite literally a return to Jim Crow

Medicaid is the primary payer for 63% of nursing home residents. That's your mom, dad, grandma and grandpa. So when the Senate Republicans cut nearly $1 trillion from Medicaid this weekend, think: are YOU going to be paying those nursing home bills, or are you going to be changing dad's bedpans?

The law has a lot of procedural and technical complications that can produce unfortunate and conflicting results but this is not one of those situations. This was a choice by SCOTUS to break the Constitution itself, to transform it from the law of the land into a piecemeal promise.
