The Ground Battle

I was amazed to hear at my local Democratic party meeting that there will be at least one real lawyer, acting as an observer, at every single one of the 400 some precincts around Seattle: part of a national plan.

God knows what it's going to be like in Miami. It's the legal equivalent of civil war.
