'Staggering numbers': Early voting is breaking records in 2020

Except Trump worshiper governors aren't the states where the virus was best contained, now is it? No, it was the places like Hawaii, California and New York (once they stopped looking to D.C. for leadership) where the virus was knocked back. Your hysteria at being presented with facts isn't helping your case.

 

Everyone has to abide EQUALLY under the REGULATIONS which form part of the Law so you do NOT have a point here.

 

If there are states out there that didn't realize that early voting was a benefit for everybody involved then they weren't paying attention to other states or using common sense.

Of course its easier.

My wife and I joined the ranks of early voting citizens on Saturday, I estimate it took about 12 minutes total from when we hit the parking lot. My county addressed the issue of long election day lines many years ago by expanding from 1 location to 6 and it's been smooth sailing ever since.

If anybody is experiencing long lines they should be voting out their election supervisor, that's what fixed our problems.

 

The ballots and the polls are saying two different things. Interesting.

Early Vote Counts Contradict Some Swing State Polls
"We begin with Texas, a state Trump won by nine points in 2016. The polls show him leading by just 2.6%. However, in early voting, 53% of the early voters are Republicans, and only 37% are for the Democrats. Assuming that more Republicans than Democrats vote on election day, Biden is toast in that state. He would lose even if every Independent voter cast their ballot for Biden.

Next up, Michigan. According to the polls, Biden leads by 7.8% in Michigan. 3.1 million votes have been cast. The Republican ballots add up to 41% and the Democrats at 39%. Again, if more Republicans vote on election day, Trump wins easily.

Now, Ohio. Trump won Ohio in 2016 by 8.1%. The current polls call the race a tie. But, in early balloting Republicans are creaming the Democrats 48% to 39%. Does this appear like a tie to you?"

Congrats!

Early voting certainly should be easier for the state/county, but it's not necessarily easier for the voter.

In my county (population 425k+), there was only 1 early vote location for about a month, with 2 others coming online in mid October.

It was a 15 minute drive for us (to the single location on 9/2, 15 to vote and 15 home. Hardly stressful, but not as easy as voting at our regular polling place on election day has been for us in the past. Literally a 3 minute drive and never a line (if you vote in mid morning)

Regardless, I think we are early in person voters going forward, unless, we haven't decided on who to vote for until Election Day (Ha Ha)

 

Knocked back? You should read the list of cases around the country, its hitting almost everywhere which should surprise no one, that's what viruses do, they spread.

 

What about the states where your wannabe Fascist-in-Chief LOST in 2016?

FTR just because a BALLOT is marked as R or D on the OUTSIDE does NOT mean that the VOTE inside matches what is on the outside.

 

You started on Sept 2? Wow that's early and long. For Us its oct 24-31. More than enough, the key was additional locations.

My experience on distance is the same, my regular location is 1.1 miles, my early location is under 3 miles but that's random luck. Others in my city might have 10.

IMO we do a great job, as voters we demanded improvements and the (new) election supervisor actually followed through with the promised changes, which included the necessary budget (thank you county commisioners).

As a general side note people really should pay closer attention to their local elections, those Mayors and city/county council people can be difference makers for things that actually impact your daily life. I spend considerable time making my council choices, but many don't, most can't list even one city council member and these are the people that fill potholes, extend bike paths, improve schools, build Parks or expand hospitals, stuff you notice every day.

 

My state started 9/18 - We voted on 9/28, which shows like this - 9/2 when you do an 8 with a )

The best part is that I can logon to our Voting Registration record and actually see that our ballots have been received (and approved).

 

Right on cue you post something that is absolutely meaningless and without any substance. Just a big ole "is not".





I suppose you need to maintain a feeling of warm fuzziness to ward off the panic of the inevitable that Hiden Biden is going to lose.
Just for you I will pretend that I care about your feelings. Need a hug?

 

I've already responded, but for your 'benefit', I shall repeat - regulation is infringement. Requiring permits IS infringement.

How sad that I actually need to explain that.

 

I forgot I could log in and look.

Side note on early voting.. one of the things that baffled me when I saw people in line for 7 hours on the first day of early voting in some cities, it just doesn't make sense that every single person in that line had designated that particular day is the only day they could pull this off and if true then the local authorities are falling short.

I would see that line and say "oops, first day" and reschedule, I wish others with flexibility would do the same, make it easier for those that may have no other choice. If 20 people step out of line it gets 20 minutes shorter.

Special shout-out to the gray hairs in my community that show up at freaking 7 a.m., let those with jobs get inside, come back at 10:30.

 

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Was that QUESTION I asked too HARD for you to answer?

Sad!

 

Making vapid claims WITHOUT credible substantiation is actually ALL you have.

ALL rights can be REGULATED!

Patently clear that you do NOT even know the MEANING of the term "infringe" either given that you have just used it INCORRECTLY above.

Sad!

 

No, 'all rights' cannot be 'regulated' in the aspect you are implying. What a shame you do not understand what 'infringed' means, or how it applies.

Instead of actually addressing the subject, you continue to dodge and attempt to insult. How boring. You have yourself a great day, and hopefully you will eventually understand what infringe actually means, and how it is applicable.

 

No right is absolute, and can be subject to both law and regulation.

Try buying a nuke, if you don't believe me...

Not even Heller goes that far, and it went way, way too far.

 

Obviously, people (more like countries) have bought nukes. A bit pricy for my liking and for which I have no need, but don't ever believe that something cannot under any circumstances, be had.

 

Kindly REFRAIN from PROJECTING your own INABILITY to comprehend the meaning of the term infringed and your puerile ad homs onto others.

 

It was impossible for anyone not connected in NYC to get a permit to own, much less carry a firearm in NYC under 'may issue' in NYC before Heller. In fact, I cannot think of a single blue city before Heller that operated as a May Issue location that didn't operate that way....And every single one of them had high gun violence rates.

 

Give it a rest, even trying to get a nuke is illegal.

You were wrong.

 

No, there is a decision made and when that decision is made, to grant or not grant a permit in a 'may issue' location, the result demonstrates the flaw in the decision. Deletants like Don Imus can and did get a carry permit but a cab driver or bodega owner...good luck with that. To be treated under the regulations AFTER the real decision is made is not the test of unconstitutional restrictions.

 

He only needs 270 votes. It's obvious that you know everything so I didn't answer your question since it was common knowledge to most everyone that knows anything about our election system.

 

That is WHY it is called a REGULATION and it is Constitutional for States to make the determination of who does and does not meet the requirements for a Permit.

No one is being denied their right to own a firearm ergo no rights are being infringed.

 

According to the Battleground polls, Ballots returned and Early Voting your wannabe Fascist-in-Chief is nowhere near that 270. Looks like he will be LUCKY if he even gets 200.

 

You doing that dreaming thing again?
