Looks like you can get non-Alolan Exeggcutor and Marowak, if I'm reading this correctly

I'm also loving the egg moves

Will this lead to more elected Republicans in swing states speaking out against Trump?

If the Republicans lose the house in Virginia it may cause them to be more nervous. They have held the house since 2000.

Of course it's not over, Republicans can still take the house in a narrow victory.

polling in VA closes in 20 minutes

brace yourselves

I have a feeling it will be a narrow Republican win...

Define narrow...

Cause I
Predicted 3 points

~1 point. Democrats have a good chance at winning and probably "need it" more than the Republicans.

For people making less than <30k a year 64% own a smartphone. Also 67% of people living in rural areas own a smartphone.

Feel like this is a really poorly chosen point for a cutoff

There's a huge difference between making 25k a year and 15k a year for example for phone viability. And for ability to make polling stations.

Regardless 36% of the population not being able to vote is still significant.

Here's some stats about smartphone ownership in the US

http://www.pewinternet.org/fact-sheet/mobile/

The vast majority of Americans 95% now own a cellphone of some kind. The share of Americans that own smartphones is now 77%, up from just 35% in Pew Research Centers first survey of smartphone ownership conducted in 2011.

In terms of gender and race there isn't much of a difference. Age shows 92% ownership among 18-29 and only 42% ownership among +65 people.

For people making less than <30k a year 64% own a smartphone. Also 67% of people living in rural areas own a smartphone.

What's the opinion on voting by mail? It'd be a lot easier for voters and most states already use it in some situations, so why not make it an option at least.

My only experience with voting by mail was a referendum and from what I can tell there wasn't much security. Absentee voting is okay because only a small portion of the population votes so it is less likely for someone to steal a large portion of them and vote multiple times.

I'm not a fan of voting machines either, but it would take a lot more effort to hack.

It's 2017 everyone should just be able to vote from their phone, I don't know why this is even a debate.

But if it was easy then poor people would do it and we can't have that.

Youre just asking for people to hack the system. Anything that is not showing up in person to vote is not desirable.

I dont see how parking at a polling station is an effective strategy. Are polling stations less numerous in the US? In my city everyone is within a 15 minute walk to their polling station. The only places that would suffer would be rural polling stations.

I don't know about other states/cities but here in Louisville I can only vote at one polling place.

So if you feel the parking lot of a place that is mainly inhabited by people more likely to vote against your candidate, if they are lazy they just won't go if they see the full parking lot.

We also only have one polling station where we can vote, but I mean they're so close to each other that having no parking isn't an issue because you can just walk to it.

Yeah, Bush didn't become "almost universally hated" until his second term. I'm not sure how many people that voted Bush were turned off from the Florida recount, a lot of the controversy was due to the networks, not Bush himself.

Outside of the existence of the Delta episode (and it involving Rayquaza) I didn't know much so the spoiler was quite awesome.

Obviously you are going to learn about some of the stuff unless you turn off the internet, but to say you learned everything and claim you aren't looking for it is laughable.

Speaking from Canadian taxes if all you have is your work income, bank interests and maybe some donations then you aren't saving much more if you go to a tax consultant. Of course the tax form can look quite daunting despite most of it not being applicable to you.

Holy shit dude literally no sympathy, this is 100% your own fault.

It's not that hard to avoid things. Like don't click a thread talking about Pokemon or watch Poke-Tubbers.

The tax code is built so that rich people (under the disguise it's targeted to the middle class) can get away with paying less taxes.

Sure the middle class also can have the benefit, but unless you do your homework the average person doesn't know what they are eligible for.

*insert California deciding elections is no different than Florida/Pennsylvania deciding elections.*

Here's the results if states proportionally awarded their electoral votes using the D'Hondt method.

Clinton - 268
Trump - 265
Johnson - 2
Stein - 1
McMullin - 1

It at least shows the closeness of the election oppose to it appearing Trump won 57-43.

What a crazy period of time we could have been in if that result happened.

they pleaded not guilty

Why?

They are gonna be pardoned anyway?

Why plead not guilty?

A pardon only nullifies the punishment, not the fact that a crime was committed. That could hurt their ability to seek future employment.

Plus they may not be pardoned.

I assume people are using "cord cutting" to refer to people preferring to watch internet streaming instead of traditional television. Not just cancelling cable/satellite subscriptions

But that's a product of not caring about football, not the cause of not caring about football. People in that position are preferring to stream things because the NFL isn't giving them enough reason to watch live TV.

Those feelings may have always existed. Not everyone who watches football ranks it their number one priority, but that didn't matter back then because your favourite shows didn't always overlap with it. Now with services like Netflix football and other sports are now competing with your favourite shows/movies.

Yeah, as much as I prefer 5/10 to be average most reviewers use 7/10 for average so we must adjust.

I've read reviews where they basically bash the game for the entire time and then gave it a 7/10.
