Vote by mail, vote early in person if you can but

...let the magats deal with the lines on election day, and see how enthusiastic they really are for their POS leader.

Early in person and mail ballots will be the first ones counted on election day. Dumpster fire is now encouraging his voters to vote by mail so registration data should start to tilt a little less democratic than it is now. Let's keep steady, keep our eye on the ball and hit a home run in November!

He can't prove mail-in voting is fraudulent and he is now on record encouraging his supporters to vote by mail. I will be turning in my ballot as early as possible and looking online to ensure it is received and counted.

Even with a supreme court, there would be no legal validity to throw out massive numbers of votes unless it came down to one state.


All he can do is try to win with votes or make it super close to contest it. That is our biggest threat.

We will put our ballots in a drop box that they will have all over our county. Can’t wait.

I remember we used to be able to vote around September 20 in person but republicans changed all the rules.

It's not an inconvenience to me... hell, I stood in line for three hours for opening day of the Texas Giant roller coaster in 1990, twice that time for tickets to Van Halen in 1983 before I knew what music was.
