OMG!!! It’s not the basement of the burger places

A national Tex mex Chain offered me a “young cannibal meal”
It had to be some sort of signaling, they knew I was a member of the dnc.

That is going to be the next pizza gate.

In most states, mail in ballot and absentee ballot are the exact same thing. Trump making a big deal about one or the other is just him stirring the s*** pot with his usual f***ing idiot stick.



That is why I was wrote it. It would be the first time in election, can you either one of them.

In the absentee ballot without the virus in it, I couldn't use it, not qualify for the rest of the restrictions. I still not enough old to be 65.

Mostly in the future, with this virus and other viruses in the future, ccd and the government will banned in person voting.

Then the way of will be both absentee and mail balloting.

mostly like in voting will be only online in next 10 years.

there is an X-factor in this election: voter suppression. Thanks to the Supreme Court’s recent removal of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, voter ID requirements, closing polls, and mail voting restrictions have become common in GOP-led states and diminished the vote of opponents in those areas.



Oh, surely not! Surely this cannot happen under the watch of the current "Leader of the Free World"?

But yes, all under the guise of "protecting our democracy from fraud" - and who could argue with that?

Apparently it is now too late to submit ballots via USPS, given the uncertainty surrounding if they can be delivered on time at this point. Best to either drop them off at official locations/boxes or vote in person instead.

He gave that title up a few years ago as he was pulling out of treaties and agreements.

I'm not sure who would hold that title now.

Merkle?
Macron?

A lot of money is riding on this election.

Betfair

As of Wednesday morning, £220 million, or about $284 million, had already been wagered on the Betfair Exchange, said Darren Hughes, a spokesman for Betfair. The London-based company operates the world's largest online betting exchange.

I said protests, not riots. Obviously you have been suckered into equating the two by the false narrative set by Trump, like everything else.



The former first lady Mrs. Obama tells us in a video blog that the events of 2020 have been "mostly peaceful protests." She says that the future president-elect Joseph A Biden will end the chaos.

I don't know how she knows this.

How can the United States be in chaos but not from the (what you/she call) peaceful protestors?

I remember earlier this year when the BLM protests were in full force everywhere, there was a planned protest in my neighborhood, announced on platforms such as FB the day before. Surely enough, due to the media overhype of isolated incidents elsewhere, residents and businesses panicked, boarding up shops, calling the police, calling for militias, etc, when, in reality, everyone just needed to calm down. Turns out it was just a peaceful march and not a single violent incident took place.

Yeah, Texas, California, and Florida are dominating the early vote counts among states.

Unfortunately Texas can’t report party affiliation. For California it’s 50% DNC, 20% GOP. For Florida, it’s fairly even.

Probably more difficult to actually identify the Free World than who we could find to lead it.

Obviously this is in part "election talk" yet also, from my knowledge of Michelle Obama, she believes/hopes that Mr Biden will heal some of the wounds and divisions in American society that have been growing ever deeper over the past four years.

Some of the symptoms of the wounds and divisions are the various protests that have been seen. Protests both violent and peaceful. Obviously "chaos" can arise and be recognised irrespective of the specific nature of the protests.

Hope that helps.

Ahh, See we have always been able to do either in my state. Anyone can request a mail in ballot/absentee for any reason for any or all elections.

I usually go in to early voting, since we moved to the this new city, but I was in small precincts in ABQ, so it was pretty quick and I could in and out before work. I prefer voting in person, I just don't like waiting hours in lines.

I mailed in last week, because they also cut the number of polling places for early voting with the drop boxes and none of them were really convenient for me. I still have some mobility issues and I'm a little extra cautious with the virus and my husband. People are generally kind and offer to hold doors and stuff which is nice, but I'd really rather they stay back now. So I feel bad telling them to back off. It's bad enough I sometimes get startled by someone and my first response to that is to yell "f***". and because of the walker I usually have a static charge, which means if they try to touch me I shock them as well. lol I know how to discharge the static, but if I'm not prepared for it... it's kind of funny. Don't touch strangers and you won't get hurt.
