If a State looses one vote, It's actually two then? one Republican one Democrat?

Thank you for the links, just trying to sort some stuff out, looking at the names and occupations of the electors in any of the States makes me wonder how they even qualified, especially that in the last couple of elections some voted the other way. As far as popular vote goes, I know I didn't vote for any elector, especially the ones listed, there was no ballot that I'm aware of, but would like to know the individual that chose him. Going to be a big deal next year when these electoral votes, just wondered who chose them. But the influx of more "migrants" makes more sense to me now.

Electors are from the party who receives the most votes in your state, so naturally they will be of the same party for whom they are voting for.
You too could be an elector, but you have to be involved in the process.
"so many of those extremists, those MAGA extremists, take their marching orders from Donald Trump, who has no credibility left by any measure. He’s only in it for himself. He’s now defending himself in civil actions and criminal actions.
When do they break with him? You know, because at some point, you know, maybe there needs to be a formal deprogramming of the cult members . But something needs to happen.”
DEMs are drunk w power. You think of all the terrible things governments have done to their citizens over the last hundred years, and we are experiencing terrible abuses of power right now.
Let them try it. But it must be them, as individuals. Not the cops. Not the military. Those individuals who want this, including Clinton. Unarmed, of course, since they want firearms banned. See how it works out for you when you try that shit in a small town south of Richmond.
I never understood the dislike of Mr. Clinton’s daughter’s mother, until she became a carpetbagger in NY.
Now she has fully exposed herself as a totalitarian and communist, I fully embrace that dislike. She is the only female I refer to as “vile,” usually with another word or two attached.

This sounds a lot like Clinton is advocating political re-education camps. That my friends, is scary.

The other night Brett Baer played the clip of Clinton, then stated when Trump says, "They are coming for you" her comment proves his point. For his part, Baer shook his head in disgust, something I haven't seen him do very much.

Leon Panetta - what a POS
Fmr. CIA Director Panetta: “I don’t have any regrets about [the letter claiming Hunter’s laptop was Russian disinformation]”
“My concern was to alert the public [about] disinformation … Frankly I haven’t seen any evidence from any intelligence agency that that was not the case”

U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan handed down a gag order to President Donald Trump in Special Counsel Jack Smith's January 6 case against him.
The order forbids Trump to make public comments about Smith, his DOJ prosecutors, federal court staff, Judge Chutkan herself and any potential witnesses in the case.
“Mr. Trump is facing criminal charges. He does not get to respond to every criticism of him if his response would affect potential witnesses. That’s the bottom line here,” Chutkan said.
The order was requested by Smith in September and classified by DOJ as "limited."
"The defendant’s past conduct, including conduct that has taken place after and as a direct result of the indictment in this case, amply demonstrates the need for this order," the Special Counsel request states.
Jonathan Turley:
Trump is running on the weaponization of the Justice Department and the criminal justice system. Many Americans agree with his criticism. Smith could curtail much of that debate by pushing this trial before the election.

Trump should promptly ignore that order. Seriously.

2016 Rival Bobby Jindal Endorses Trump, Calls for Party to Unify
Former Gov. Bobby Jindal (R-LA) has endorsed his 2016 presidential campaign rival, former President Donald Trump, for president and is calling for the party to unify behind the 45th president, who continues to dominate the primary field.
“I just had a great conversation with President Trump, and I told him that he has my full and complete endorsement to win back the White House and Make America Great Again!” Jindal wrote in a post on X Monday.
Jindal asserted that Trump “will be the Republican nominee, and everyone knows that, especially the Democrats who are already spending millions attacking him in an attempt to destroy him.”
