What a setback, Ellie. I pray Stacey et al. will be able to overcome.
Meanwhile, here in Virginia things are looking up:

After reading a story in The Hill (I wait for Letters until the coffee is brewed) on the "surprise retirement" of a half dozen Republican senators, I had the idle thought as I poured the magic bean fluid of "We are going to have to Abrams the s*%t out of those states".
Quote from Matt Damon in "The Martian" where he says he has to "science the s*%t out of his surroundings to insure his survival.
Ally, this comment makes my day! IтАЩm all about science-ing the s*%t out of stuff, but had never thought of my modus operandi in those terms. And Abrams-ing the s*%t out of several states is my new goal. LetтАЩs go!!
The bright side: voter suppression has never been this obvious. Every news article I read calls it what it is, even if it doesnтАЩt always mention the racist underpinning.

Agree as to making Abrams a verb!
Absolutely. Unlike "Borking," "to Abrams" has a positive meaning.

And Florida is going in the other direction. https://www.palmbeachpost.com/story/opinion/editorials/2021/03/02/editorial-desantis-mistakes-election-integrity-voter-suppression/6883048002/
It is with dismay that I read about what is going on in Florida and the other states. I hope donations to FairFight and the Democrats will hep.
