Trump flips Jim Justice like a monk in AOE

So... What does that do? Do they gain a seat in the senate/house? How does burger government work?

>>136074765
Democrats now will have 15 governors out of 50 instead of 16. Which also means Republicans are only a couple governors away from being able to modify the constitution

>>136075428
The butthurt would be so epic if one of the western states elected a Republican governor again....OMG. Especially California. Shit, there would be mass suicides.

Can we make it happen, /pol/?

also bump this is pretty big news but nobody will post about it because no tits and no conspiracy

>>136075645
If kek wills it.

>>136075645
California's too far gone, IMO. Oregon is possible if the rural areas can overrun Portland's voting power

Low-Energy @WVGovernor Refuses To Stop Millions Of $$ In Contracts To Companies Who Cheated WV Taxpayers. Sad!

big if true

Is the rally over already?
Saw it started at 7, but live stream looks like it hasn't started yet.

I thought you were only ONE governor away, so now you would have enough governors.

However it's outrageous that Montana and Louisiana have Democratic governors. How is that even possible? They go red at every presidential election, why did they elect a democrat as a governor? At the same time I don't understand how traditionally democratic states have a republican governor like in New England.

>>136075428
OK.
So they now have 34, and they need 38?
From what I read, they can already submit constitutional amendments to the states but they need 38 (3/4th) of them to accept them for it to become part of the constitution.
Can they plausibly get 4 more governors?
What happens if California splits in two? How are those proportions rounded? This could actually matter kek.

>>136075645
have to chip away - first get their electoral votes assigned proportionally. Cali allows direct ballot initiatives.

>>136077050
If California for some reason splits into two states, we would have 51 states and the half that seceded from California would have to elect their first governor.

Plausibly, no they cannot get 4 more governors. I'm surprised they have as many as they do

>>136077010
Politics in state wide races are very different than in federal elections. Republicans in Massachusetts and Vermont are more liberal than Democrats in West Virginia.

Democrats have never been this much of a joke in the history of the United States.

Don't they have to control 38 state legislatures in order to ratify an amendment, or is it governors?

>>136074340
that's hilarious

>>136077010
State politics are a lot different than national. I actually voted our Governor in Louisiana. Democrats down here are basically center right.

>>136074340
Winning!

>>136074340
WOLOLOLOLOLOINNING!

remember that one scenario in the first aoe where you were a lone monk vs 3 enemies and you had to convert their villagers one by one to build your own army

Nice one OP

>>136075810
Oregon is extremely unlikely. Republicans only get like 45% max here. Eugene, Bend, Medford are all libshit cities as well.

>>136075810
We can physically run over Portland voters after we get out of the polls, if that will help!

They just don't learn
Years of sanctimony have led them to believe their way is the right way and anything else is intolerable

Colorado.

Observe my numerals.

>>136082211
Checked
If that happened, the Cali transplants might just off themselves

It's your last shot, Colorado

What's the probability that this gov that flipped is just a dem spy? I hate the idea of him reporting rep goings on to the dems.

>>136082379
There are enough engineering minded folks, and Bernie-supporting potheads, and rugged blue collar types, that CO could be more like Montana.

The key is appealing to all the many things that Trump and Bernie have in common.

>>136082211

>>136082211
It's possible. The last governor election was pretty close, and a moderate Republican could win depending on his views of pot

WAIT WHAT???

Governors can modify the constitution? wtf? how does that even work????

>>136075428
whats on his radar that he wants to modify?

>>136083264
i am assumeing as heads of their respective states they each have a vote that can go along with or without congress support?

He's from West Virginia, democrat or republican he's not very far left. Manchin is a democrat senator and he was one of the three dems who voted in favor of Trump's SCOTUS pick and pushed it through.

>>136079547
>he actually believes Louisiana politics are what they say they are
ahahahahbaahaha

>>136083264
Amendments are adopted when the strong majority of states ratify the amendment.

>Cali electing Rep. Gov.

Its possible but now that no one needs to know math who will be able to count?

>>136077010
The Louisiana Republican candidate literally didn't care either way. One of them could have dropped out and guaranteed us a Republican governor but corruption runs deep around here.
He probably got paid off.
