IT STARTS: Single County in Ohio Sends ‘Wrong Absentee Ballots’ to 50,000 VOTERS | Sean Hannity

no surprise

anytime a new process is introduced in the eleventh hour and hasn't been fully tested to get the 'kinks' out of it, you're going to have issues

Dropped my mail in envelope yesterday at the Library. Only two people in front of me and no postage needed. Easy.

Now we even have Librarians handling National Election Ballots!

Your Spot-On Byte1, Thank you! :clap2:
I'm expecting more votes counted then actual register voters in some states... :popcorn:

You should double-check the ballot you received and make sure it's legit. Our ballots clearly stated postage required.


But maybe you are going to vote in person, so it wouldn't matter. But I think your information might be incorrect.

There were no lines at the Sumter County office. Very large lobby with a box and a person wearing a mask receiving the ballots. We did not touch anything.


Not like you had to wait in line for an open voting booth that other people had used in a close-quarter situation.

Ours said postage required. Sumter County

Funny thing happened today. My former state sent me a notice that early voting started today and that I should get my vote in. Apparently, I am still registered in the other state as well as this state, which I have lived in for near ten years.

Vote in person if at all possible.

I sure hope this doesn’t turn into Bush v Gore again.

Expect worst....... :popcorn:

I'll be voting in person this coming week. My wife will also. I see no problem, since everyone will be social distancing and the booths are spaced. Guess I am not prone to mass hysteria. If I get infected, I'll let you know so that you can say "I told you so" and if your candidate loses, I will say "I told you so." On the other hand, if your candidate wins and I catch the virus it won't matter anyway.

I think you might be right. This will make 2000 a walk in the park. It will give circuses a bad rap. Fortunately, there will be a multitude of clowns.
