This new law will take effect on September 1st. That means the original deadline of Aug 7 stands, despite the new law. OH Sos said as much.

"In June, Ohio passed a bill to move its deadline from Aug. 7 to Sept. 1. But because that law technically does not take effect until Sept. 1, the DNC said they are keeping their timeline of a pre-convention virtual roll call in place due to concern of litigation. Republican Secretary of State Frank LaRose suggested earlier this month that Sept. 1 deadline to certify a candidate would stand."

You have ANYTHING resembling proof? Behind the Aegis Jul 2024 #73

It is bullshit and doesn't even make sense. What is being implied is obvious though JohnSJ Jul 2024 #94

And what, pray tell, does that mean? BComplex Jul 2024 #121

Where is your proof bud, or is this just conspiracy nonsense associating some JohnSJ Jul 2024 #128

Oh give me a break. BComplex Jul 2024 #137

Looks like you already did go there. wnylib Jul 2024 #152

No. He's insinuating I was doing something racist, which I was not. What I was saying was strictly political. BComplex Jul 2024 #153

Do you really believe that Netanyahu has the power wnylib Jul 2024 #157

Ahhhhhh, i get it jpug Jul 2024 #158

Do you know who he wants to win this election? Trump. Not Biden. Trump. BComplex Jul 2024 #108

President Biden's meeting with George Clooney. DiamondShark Jul 2024 #185

What does that have to do with Netanyahu trying "to fix" the American election?! Behind the Aegis Jul 2024 #191

You asked for proof. Please check into the Clooney connection. DiamondShark Jul 2024 #192

What?! Again. You are making a claim, then YOU provide the evidence. Behind the Aegis Jul 2024 #196

Sorry you missed the news the last couple weeks. DiamondShark Jul 2024 #197

Yes it is. Behind the Aegis Jul 2024 #200

I'm not inclined to provide you links, exerpts, or anything elses. DiamondShark Jul 2024 #201

So, you have nothing. Just baseless remarks. Behind the Aegis Jul 2024 #202

Please stop. The information has been out there for weeks now. DiamondShark Jul 2024 #203

You first. You made a claim, that makes NO sense, then refuse to produce proof. Behind the Aegis Jul 2024 #207

Please stop. DiamondShark Jul 2024 #208

YOU provide the proof. IT is YOUR claim. Behind the Aegis Jul 2024 #209

You have been rude to me from the start. DiamondShark Jul 2024 #210

You made a claim and refused to back it up; that is rude. Behind the Aegis Jul 2024 #211

Sounds like you have the answer you want. DiamondShark Jul 2024 #212

Sounds like you have nothing in the way of proof. Behind the Aegis Jul 2024 #213

Your mind is made up see Post 211, before you made the edit. DiamondShark Jul 2024 #214

I can't make up my mind...you haven't provided any proof. Behind the Aegis Jul 2024 #215

The news has been out for a few weeks. I suggest you Google it. DiamondShark Jul 2024 #216

So nothing. Just like the other poster. Behind the Aegis Jul 2024 #217

It's been in the news for a while. DiamondShark Jul 2024 #218

I saw the stories about Clooney, but NOTHING about how he is connected to Bibi running the US election. Behind the Aegis Jul 2024 #220

Again, your best bet is to use Google, MSN, Yahoo, another news site... DiamondShark Jul 2024 #221

I didn't ask for 5 paragraphs, I asked for a source. Behind the Aegis Jul 2024 #222

I hope you are able to find the answer you seek. DiamondShark Jul 2024 #223

So nada. Good to know after all this time. Behind the Aegis Jul 2024 #224

Why? How would Biden stepping back help Netanyahu? yardwork Jul 2024 #82

Because Netanyahu is a fan of trumps. Butterflylady Jul 2024 #110

It would help trump win. Which is what Netanyahu wants. BComplex Jul 2024 #116

I think the question is about how we best beat Trump. yardwork Jul 2024 #120

And that is to get the big money to QUIT pressuring leading Democrats to dump Biden. BComplex Jul 2024 #124
