Genuinely polite and well-meant suggestions: Please consider avoiding those incredibly jarring quick zoom-ins during the editing phase of the production of your content. I don't know if the purpose of doing that is to emphasize certain words Sophie is saying or for some other reason, but I found it difficult to watch this video because of those. It is distracting and it detracts from your message. Secondarily, if you have to jump cut edit after every sentence spoken, this looks really unprofessional and that is also jarring. Practice speaking for longer periods before editing. Cut away to something else if you can't avoid the edit. Thirdly, beware of too much headroom in the frame. You can fix that in post/editing by cropping and refitting to the aspect ratio, but it's always much better to get the camera set up right while filming. And if you can avoid showing the mic, or perhaps showing less of the mic, that's advantageous as well. Sorry, I know that seems super critical, and maybe it is a wee bit unfair, but I promise you that the quality of your videos will increase dramatically if you make those small changes and that in turn will increase engagement and subscribers.

What I call Confederate Republicans play a very long game (and I wish Democrats were better at seeing them do it). They started at least 50 years ago putting mechanisms in place to enable someone like Donald Trump in his current position (because the first time he thought about running he was a DEMOCRAT) to exist. Look up Reagan and the Texas evangelicals.

It's the way of the GOP. Page 1 of the playbook. The GOP can't win on polices, they have none except tax cuts for rich people, so the only way to stay in power, is to Gerrymader the districts in their favor. That's how you destroy a state. Look at rankings for Healthcare, education and average salary, you will find red states rank towards the bottom of each category. Every time a Republican is President, we end up with a bad economy.

Greatful for the assurances, but still worried sick. Why? 1. The of dozens of certification refusals, obstructions and lawsuits they bomb the election with could end up putting the election in the hands of the SCOTUS MAGA-WCN majority. 2. If the election results aren't fully resolved and certified by Jan 20th, the 20th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution automatically makes Speaker of the House Mike Johnson the interim President of the United States, and embued with the new immunity for anything he deems an 'official act.' This doesn't bode well for democracy.

The EC is not obsolete the method states use to choose electors is bad. Originally state legislatures did this which actually makes since. The average person does not really understand the relationship between his/her state and the federal government. Most could not even state what the few and defined powers of the federal government are. Two huge political parties and the media tell the people who to vote for every four years and the people think they have free choice in the matter. It is nothing but a popularity contest at this point.

They will be prosecuted, convicted and sent to jail. Certification is a ministerial task. No judgment is required . Do it or go to jail. It is a simple non political task .

I don't think the majority of even the current SCOTUS would do that! Maybe one or two of them -- cough, cough, sneeze, Thomas, Alito -- excuse me, but vote certification is really not the point in the process at which selection of outcomes is controlled.
