The RNC challenged how the states accept ballots from citizens living abroad who never lived there, as long as their parents were eligible to vote in the state before moving overseas. Michigan also extends the protections to spouses.



Count those votes towards DC. It's already absurd that the 23d gives DC the two extra extra electors as if they were a state. (For a total of three.)

Part of the problem is that Republicans promulgated a lot of these rules because in the past overseas ballots came mostly from military and international business workers - two groups that leaned heavily R.

Now there are an increasing number of ex-pats who fled the country and those people are even more flakey than the people who left their home state and fled to California.

But overall it's still a small number to get worked up about - kind of like these old weirdos who buy expensive plane tickets from New York and fly down to Florida to vote from their vacation home.
