Presumably they'd start by challenging every DNC delegation that switches from Biden in court? Enough states could pretend to take thst seriously enough to take months, I guess.

Actually how about a mass campaign to get the Electoral College to vote for someone other than the candidate they're pledged to? Sounds viable and reasonable and definitely like it would work.

If I wanted to use such a provision in bad faith, then I'd just officially complain about everything slightly dodgy my opponent said and clog up the system until it's unworkable.

OK, so the obvious problem: Any lie can be easily made an unfalsifiable insinuation: "Labour want to turn your kids gay and abolish the family" - potential lie "I think there's a HUGE danger that Labour want to turn your kids gay and abolish the family" - a statement of opinion.

I just had to call my local Coles store to be certain I can buy a physical Telstra prepaid recharge voucher there. Couldn't find ANYWHERE on Telstra's site confirming this is possible. Presumably Coles takes a cut so Telstra prefers it if you buy directly from them?

No it isn't. As someone who has lived with depression for decades, hope does NOT banish it, nor does it change material realities. Hope is good and being open to opportunity is also good, but the power of each has limits.

What this article leaves out is that if you hand your unlocked phone to a police officer, they can legally search it. Unless companies develop a method that allows you to show officers insurance cards and driver license without unlocking the rest of your phone, don't.
