For all you who mailed in your ballot, if you sent your ballot back weeks and weeks ago and you still don’t see it as having been received, call your local election officials. Many local election offices are being inundated by voters with similar concerns, so it may take a few tries.

When you do get an official on the phone, you should ask the status of your ballot — election officials may have information that hasn’t been posted yet. If they say it hasn’t been received yet, ask what your options are, if there are any. Hope your ballot doesn’t get lost or thrown out good luck :yeah:

Seem to recall something with mailed ballot was thrown away if Trumps name was on the ballot-This was during the last election-I can remember wrong though.

After all it's the Plumbers,Ele,Ac,Carpenders,Roffers, And every Ant that works a day job, That pays for this war. And i am certain The Biden Military has seen the Drone Kills.And there is only one ? How many of the New Democrat army is willing to face that? So Joe has said we will be there to the end.

I think,all of our politicians,here in this country are so corrupt,and at some point,there must be war...When ideology and the Masses come together as in the past there must be slaughter until one wins and the other cease to exist.

Some have a lot and a lot of money.

But one trader has appeared to be influencing the market by betting millions of dollars on a Trump victory.

As of late Tuesday, the trader, only known as Fredi9999, has purchased more than 15 million shares, valued at $8.7 million, betting that Trump would win the election.

They have also purchased more than 3 million shares betting that Trump would win the popular vote, and nearly 1.5 million shares that Trump would carry Pennsylvania, a crucial battleground state that is viewed as the most likely tipping-point state this cycle. All told, Fredi9999's position is valued at more than $14 million on the platform.

Oh no. None of that happened. The vote counting was clearly handled professionally with all involved. Very secure voting process. We also have found the fountain of youth and will solve world hunger next Tuesday.

Being short handed and inundated with ballots either will not care about a signature leaving open the potential for fraud or if someone is doing their job and comparing signatures could possibly throw it out because in their mind it doesn’t match. Blindly firing off your ballot into the hands of others without a chain of custody doesn’t seem very secure.

Doesn’t sound like some people really thought this through.

Nope, they certainly did not.

Actually, Re: Trump, given his behavior and utterances of late, the voters should demand he have a full competency hearing...

Four years ago today, 51 intelligence officials, including five former CIA directors, issued a fraudulent letter. To date, no one has been held accountable for this act of treachery.

It was no different than the Steele dossier set in motion by the Clinton campaign.

I would be happy if we demanded a competency test for voters. A lot of them are so unbelievably gullible and will without giving anything a second thought glom on to some pretty outlandish crap.

It looks like the left hand is not know what right hand is doing in the Democrats party-Heard that Harris tried to get in contact with the governor in FL with no success while Biden said it was a success in the conversation between Harris and DeSantis(I think his name was)

There were other cases too, but I remember this one best.

I know eh. That was my first thought when I saw Joe trying to shake hands with an invisible guy.
