Huh, like when senators ask for the Yeas & Nays on a question on which the Yeas & Nays have already been ordered – though here at least, unlike with the chair in the Senate, the judge (after saying "granted") does note that what the request was for had already been done.

Any word on whether congressional leaders –
1) are set on convening the 120th Congress on Jan 3, 2027,
2) are planning to change the date b/c that's on a Sunday, or
3) haven't considered it either way?

I've had the same thought about seats on SCOTUS. If (eg) Trump could nominate and the Senate confirm two justices now IN CASE 1-2 vacancies were to occur before noon on Jan 20, 2029.

In any event, I'm _thinking_ Trump wouldn't have the votes.

… a H/S decision to count/not count ballots after a state did the opposite would ~depend on which party already held the majority and whether it would help them. Iow, that process ~wouldn't change which party held the majority, but it could change the size of the majority's margin.

When a Democratic House passes a bill 272 - 91 (after adopting the rule 294 - 59), a Republican Senate passes it by voice vote, and a Republican president signs it, that's what's called a "bipartisan bill" – iow, it's "100% on" everybody.

No SOP filibuster. No tree filling. A time agreement on the bill and on non-specified amendments. 🤯

Good times.
