Sorry asshat, they're not out of office. If elections are delayed the President remains in office.

Not that I'm suggesting "ny mag" is the greatest source.

But facts are facts.

Libs (including a few trolls on GLP) are saying "Pelosi check mated Trump" and/or suggested when the elections are cancelled she'd become POTUS.

But that's not true. The federal politicians either get kicked out when their terms run or they don't. So, if Trump and Pence got booted due to no election, Pelosi would get booted at the same time, as her term would be up too.

You can google "when is Pelosi up for reelection" and it will confirm November 2020.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77069256


OP, I had to laugh a little at your last sentence. You do not need to google if Pelosi is up for reelection. Every single Congressman/woman is up for reelection every two years, (always in an even year).

The only thing to google is which 1/3 of the senators are up for reelection, since their 6-year terms are staggered. Also on even years.

Minor nitpick. Carry on.

Chuck Grassley, not Pelosi, becomes POTUS if election's cancelled in November 2020

Technically, says Halper, Congress could delay the election for a bit in the case of an emergency, but when the president and vice-president’s terms run out on January 20, 2021, they are out of office, period. And in that case, it seems, the next-in-the-line-of-succession official who is still in office would be empowered to occupy the Oval Office.

If, of course, there’s no general election in November, Trump and Pence aren’t the only elected officials out of a job, so crazy things could happen. While the Speaker of the House is third in the line of presidential succession, Nancy Pelosi is also up for reelection this year and so would face the same scenario as Trump and Pence if the election were to be canceled. The next in the line of succession who does not face voters in November is Chuck Grassley, the Senate’s president pro tempore. But then again, 23 Republican senators are up for reelection this year and would be on the sidelines as well, so we could have a Democratic Senate and perhaps a president pro tempore Pat Leahy (that position traditionally goes to the oldest senator of the majority party).
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77069256


So Pat Leahy becomes President with a Democratic Senate. You just said so. So why the BS about Chuck Grassley becoming President? If Trump, Pence, and Pelosi are no longer in office that means all of the senators up for re-election are also out of office which means Pat Leahy is the Senate pro tempore. Democratic President, Democratic House, Democratic Senate. Trust the plan. Still think Q is not Obama?

If California (or another Libtard state) somehow keeps Trump off the ballot then their electoral votes would have to be disqualified because there was no election IN THAT STATE.

Remember the States run their elections not the Feds.

If you don't have two candidates or an opposing candidate there is no election.
 Quoting: Regal Beast


This is BS. Elections don’t require candidates on ballots. That’s why there is a write in option. Most ballots have multiple candidates on the ballot besides the two major parties. If there were only two candidates allowed from two parties, that would not be democracy. That would be a dictatorship controlled by those two parties.

You're dealing with a cess pool of GMO Masons and bread bags from Iowa.... And who did Trump appoint for the ambassador to China...That's right another MASON former governor of Iowa... EMBARRASSING!

The Grand Cross is the highest honor for a 33rd degree Mason. Brother Harshbarger joins Senator Charles Grassley as the only Iowa Masons to currently hold this honor.





Ambassador To China Member Of The Freemasons

Published on Dec 8, 2016

Iowa governor terry Branstad is likely to become the next US ambassador to china, but he’ll have to leave any masonic symbols at home. Branstad is listed as a member of a chapter of the freemason group in Des Moines. The Freemasons group has been banned in mainland china for decades. Masonic groups generally run into trouble in Communist countries due to their secret meetings. Branstad accepted President-elect Donald Trump's job offer Wednesday, but he'll have to be confirmed by the U.S. Senate before taking the post.

How did this even get stars?

There is no vacancy of seat. So they'd remain in their chairs until elections occurred.

But even more so, the question is, why? why? why are liberals spreading low IQ stuff like this? why? why? why? It never ends, just a new crop of lame ideas.

Why wouldn't you hold elections? Your country will be in ruins if the lock-down extends to November.

South Korea had an election yesterday. Voting was done in person. People under quarantine voted later, but at their regular polling stations. The voter turnout was the largest since 1992. Moon Jae-in got the biggest Parliamentary majority since South Korea became a democracy in the 80s.

There is no such rule. People are elected to an office for a specified period of time (see the 20th Amendment). If they're not re-elected, then they are not entitled to stay in office.

They may be out of office, but Pelosi would probably still be Speaker.

The reason is that the Speaker does not have to be a member of Congress. It's anyone the House elects, and she's the one they most recently elected.
