Just between you and me, Mike... What are the chances for confirmation before the election? Hey, I'm feeling very positive about it! Group hug!

Hey, Chris! Give me some of that positive energy!

Here's the bottom line. Our presidential voting process relies heavily on assumptions, customs and unwritten norms. Laws on both the Federal and State level are incomplete, often poorly written, and mostly untested.
