Our mailman or woman whatever, cant even put our mail in the box correctly 90% of the time. So, no, I dont trust the USPS to deliver my ballot, nor return the ballot.


And all those mailmen see political mail arriving in mailboxes daily all year long. They know who is republican and who is a democrat

I haven’t received a straight answer regarding nursing home voting


Never really got into local politics until a friend ran for state office this year. The retiring incumbent told me the nursing home was going for the other candidate and that would be 80 votes. I asked what he meant. He said the director of the nursing home always got him all the votes via absentee ballots there, but they would go for my friend’s opponent this time around. (My friend won BTW)

Over 30 million votes in the 2016 election were mail in votes. It kind of already works
Only in states where it has been used in the past. About that 30 million, is that mail in votes in the sense that we are talking now or absentee as well?

Mail in voting is simple.

After the election is over, they see how many votes Biden needs to win.

That is how many mail in votes are counted.

And that is how mail in voting works my friends.

Does it, though?

Can we roll that out to all 50 states in 2 months and STILL have the expectation that it will work correctly and that, most importantly, we will actually wake up on November 4th and know who our next president will be?

They mail out to the entire voter roles which have never been purged of deceased records or people that have moved. Like in LA County where they mail out 110% more ballots than the population. The latest trick is demanding that they all be mailed in for free as they don't want them post marked which allows them to miraculously find additional ballots depending on need.

Why the need to change election process all of a sudden? Democrats still gathered in mass for John Lewis's funeral and protests, grocery stores still open but you can't walk into a school to vote? Just more bullshite by the democrats to steal an election that they can't win fair and square. This country is fricked if they win

Don't confuse "voting by mail" and voting using an absentee ballot.

There is an actual process you have to go through to get an absentee ballot including proof of identification.

That is not what the Democrats are advocating when they want "vote by mail".

Yes, you are correct. Most absentee ballots you have to show up at the election comission well before the election with an id.

First, you send ballots to every address, including to voters that are either ineligible, dead, or purged.

Then you canvas the area and offer to fill out the ballots for them - "harvesting" the ballot instead of paying the voter.

Then, you wait for the stolen election results to come in -which should take only 3-4 weeks after the election day.
