[Trump campaign wins in Pennsylvania court case.]

"A Pennsylvania appellate court ruled in favor of President Donald Trump=E2=
=80=99s campaign Thursday in an election case, forbidding the counting of a=
small pool of mail votes from people who had failed to provide the require=
d ID on time. In a two-page order, a Commonwealth Court judge rejected a de=
cision by the Wolf administration to give such voters more time, post-elect=
ion, to provide proof of identification." (Philadelphia Inquirer <[link removed]

llots-commonwealth-court-20201112.html>

=E2=80=A2 The Trump campaign won in Pennsylvania court today. A judge agre=
ed that Pennsylvania voters should have until November 9th to provide proof=
of identification, if needed, for their mail-in votes -- and no later.
=20
=E2=80=A2 The Pennsylvania Secretary of State had unilaterally changed the=
deadline to November 12th shortly before the election. The Trump campaign'=
s (successful) legal argument was that she didn't have the authority to do =
that.
=20
=E2=80=A2 Note, though: this is expected to only affect a "small number" o=
f votes. These votes had not yet been added into the final tallies, so they=
won't change the current margin between President Trump and Joe Biden in P=
ennsylvania.
=20
=E2=80=A2 The decision can still be appealed to the Pennsylvania Supreme C=
ourt. We'll keep you posted as this story develops.

[Sanders wants to join Biden Administration ... but Biden won't take House =
or Senate members if they don't win Georgia Senate races in January.]

"'I think [Joe Biden] understands that politics is a game of addition and m=
ultiplication, not subtraction and division,' said Democratic strategist An=
tjuan Seawright. 'I can=E2=80=99t see a scenario where [Biden] will risk lo=
sing numbers in the Senate that he would need to deliver an agenda that is =
so critical,' he continued. 'You could argue the same point with a swing-di=
strict member of Congress.'" (The Hill)

=E2=80=A2 Members of Congress, from the House and Senate, frequently serve=
in presidential administrations. But big Republican wins in the November 3=
rd election mean Joe Biden is far less likely to choose congressional progr=
essives for his cabinet -- even though they're interested.
=20
=E2=80=A2 Bernie Sanders confirmed he'd potentially like to serve in a Bid=
en Administration, most likely as Secretary of Labor.
=20
=E2=80=A2 And Sanders isn't alone: congressional progressives like Sen. El=
izabeth Warren <[link removed]
-cabinet-position-following-speculation> , Rep. Marcia Fudge <[link removed]
olitico.com/news/2020/11/11/marcia-fudge-agriculture-biden-cabinet-436066> =
, Sen. Chris Murphy <[link removed]
majority-battle-snags-biden-cabinet-hopefuls> , and others have shown inter=
est in Administration roles, too.
=20
=E2=80=A2 As The Hill explains <[link removed]
5598-senate-majority-battle-snags-biden-cabinet-hopefuls> : "Democrats in b=
oth the House and Senate are looking at thin margins that could make it dif=
ficult to justify picking a member of Congress for a Cabinet position if it=
risks depleting the party=E2=80=99s ranks or setting up a special election=
in a red or purple state."
=20
=E2=80=A2 That makes the Georgia Senate run-off races on January 5th even =
more important -- for both parties. Right now, Republicans have 50 Senate s=
eats to Democrats' 48 seats.

[Republicans control majority of state legislatures -- which could be a big=
benefit in congressional redistricting ahead.]

"The GOP flipped both legislative chambers in New Hampshire and the state H=
ouse in Alaska while Democrats failed to regain control of a single state l=
egislative body anywhere in the country. That means Republicans could poten=
tially exit the 2020 cycle with majorities in 61 of the country=E2=80=99s 9=
9 state legislative bodies." (Daily Caller <[link removed]

=E2=80=A2 Although Democrats spent "hundreds of millions of dollars," <htt=

epublicans still won big in state legislative races this year. They "flippe=
d" (i.e. took the majority in) the Alaska state house, New Hampshire state =
house, and New Hampshire state senate.
=20
=E2=80=A2 Among their many responsibilities, most state legislatures overs=
ee congressional district re-districting. Congressional (i.e. House) repres=
entation is reconfigured after each U.S. Census; the most recent Census was=
completed in 2020.
=20
=E2=80=A2 That means Republicans could have the advantage in congressional=
redistricting ahead.

[The Vote]

We're 9 days out from Election Day. Here's the news that you'll want to know:

(1) Trump campaign wins in Pennsylvania court case <[link removed]>

(2) Sanders wants to join Biden Administration <[link removed]> ... but Biden won't take House or Senate members if they don't win Georgia Senate races in January <[link removed]>

(3) Republicans control majority of state legislatures -- which could be a big benefit in congressional redistricting ahead <[link removed]>

[Trump campaign wins in Pennsylvania court case.]

"A Pennsylvania appellate court ruled in favor of President Donald Trump’s campaign Thursday in an election case, forbidding the counting of a small pool of mail votes from people who had failed to provide the required ID on time. In a two-page order, a Commonwealth Court judge rejected a decision by the Wolf administration to give such voters more time, post-election, to provide proof of identification." (Philadelphia Inquirer <[link removed]> )

Read the full story on the Philadelphia Inquirer <[link removed]>

• The Trump campaign won in Pennsylvania court today. A judge agreed that Pennsylvania voters should have until November 9th to provide proof of identification, if needed, for their mail-in votes -- and no later.

• The Pennsylvania Secretary of State had unilaterally changed the deadline to November 12th shortly before the election. The Trump campaign's (successful) legal argument was that she didn't have the authority to do that.

• Note, though: this is expected to only affect a "small number" of votes. These votes had not yet been added into the final tallies, so they won't change the current margin between President Trump and Joe Biden in Pennsylvania.

• The decision can still be appealed to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. We'll keep you posted as this story develops.

[Sanders wants to join Biden Administration ... but Biden won't take House or Senate members if they don't win Georgia Senate races in January.]

"'I think [Joe Biden] understands that politics is a game of addition and multiplication, not subtraction and division,' said Democratic strategist Antjuan Seawright. 'I can’t see a scenario where [Biden] will risk losing numbers in the Senate that he would need to deliver an agenda that is so critical,' he continued. 'You could argue the same point with a swing-district member of Congress.'" (The Hill)

Read the full story on The Hill <[link removed]>

• Members of Congress, from the House and Senate, frequently serve in presidential administrations. But big Republican wins in the November 3rd election mean Joe Biden is far less likely to choose congressional progressives for his cabinet -- even though they're interested.

• Bernie Sanders confirmed he'd potentially like to serve in a Biden Administration, most likely as Secretary of Labor.

• And Sanders isn't alone: congressional progressives like Sen. Elizabeth Warren <[link removed]> , Rep. Marcia Fudge <[link removed]> , Sen. Chris Murphy <[link removed]> , and others have shown interest in Administration roles, too.

• As The Hill explains <[link removed]> : "Democrats in both the House and Senate are looking at thin margins that could make it difficult to justify picking a member of Congress for a Cabinet position if it risks depleting the party’s ranks or setting up a special election in a red or purple state."

• That makes the Georgia Senate run-off races on January 5th even more important -- for both parties. Right now, Republicans have 50 Senate seats to Democrats' 48 seats.

[Republicans control majority of state legislatures -- which could be a big benefit in congressional redistricting ahead.]

"The GOP flipped both legislative chambers in New Hampshire and the state House in Alaska while Democrats failed to regain control of a single state legislative body anywhere in the country. That means Republicans could potentially exit the 2020 cycle with majorities in 61 of the country’s 99 state legislative bodies." (Daily Caller <[link removed]> )

Read the full story on the Daily Caller <[link removed]>

• Although Democrats spent "hundreds of millions of dollars," <[link removed]> Republicans still won big in state legislative races this year. They "flipped" (i.e. took the majority in) the Alaska state house, New Hampshire state house, and New Hampshire state senate.

• Among their many responsibilities, most state legislatures oversee congressional district re-districting. Congressional (i.e. House) representation is reconfigured after each U.S. Census; the most recent Census was completed in 2020.

• That means Republicans could have the advantage in congressional redistricting ahead.
