One reason to vote early

Our problem in a nutshell- There are no conservatives in the Democrat party but there are plenty of liberals in the Republican party. I voted early due to my job and was verified by photo ID, the early mail ins... who knows where they come from.

Absentee ballots and
These Parties of today are not the Parties of years ago. On either side, this is fact.
No, and especially not those who are interviewed on TV. It seems like we hear from the extremes on both ends of the spectrum, but rarely from those in the middle.
 
When I was a young cop in Baltimore, I spent every election at the polls making sure that everyone acting in a legal manner at the polls. Schools were closed. Voting was done in firehouses, schools and private homes. Every neighborhood had at least one polling place. Voting machine were 6ft tall and mechanical. You had to prove who you were. Each polling place tallied the votes the machines were then locked and sealed and they were hand carried by the attending police officer to a central location where they were added to the overall count. Results were announced by 11:00 PM that night. If a recount was needed for some reason, It was accomplished in short order, usually within hours. There was no write in voting. No early voting and never a hint of voter fraud. Each home had an equal amount of judges from both parties. I worked the same private home in an Italian neighborhood and on election day, it was party time. Our host always made three meals a day for us and some of the other neighbors brought in home made deserts. The polls were opened from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM.
 
You can't help but chuckle, but sitting here in Maricopa County with several hundred thousand ballots still to count the joke rings a bit hollow.
And looking to Nevada -- you "found" how many ballots??? Why is it these lost-and-found ballots ALWAYS benefit Democrats?
I'm sorry, it's hard to have faith in the process any more.
When fishing up on the Rim earlier this year, I met a fellow fisherman from Salome AZ. He told me he doesn't vote any more because "it doesn't make any difference". I begin to understand a bit better why he feels that way.
 
Remember!
Vote Blue, no matter Who!
Even if it's a dead guy!

Yup!
Dems voted to re elect a dead guy.

Mark Twain was Right: "If voting made any difference, they wouldn't let us do it."
 
Some extra reading material.

 
People can focus on mail-in ballots, voting machines, cheating at polls, blaming Trump, etc. But all that accomplishes is exactly what people like McConnell want it to do - keep people mad and focused elsewhere.

If the repub party is not capable, or more than likely interested, in changing things then this is the end product and you can't point fingers anywhere else. They undermined the tea party and they undermined Trump because he was an outsider - instead of taking advantage of the opportunities.

The elephant in the room is really the elephant. Mitch and Co. will work more at undermining those within their party who are not in lock step than they will at what you think they should be focused on. Why are people not blaming Mitch for withholding PAC money from candidates who lost? They were for the GOP, but they were not for Mitch. He uses GOP funds to his gain, not yours.

Anyone who believes the GOP as a whole is on your side is mistaken. In two years it will be the same story, song, and dance.

Kind of like hanging hopes on the NRA. They have the support but they just never seem to do anything with it and are content to maintain status quo.
I totally agree with your description, but the question is WHO controls Mitch?
 
That would be a long an involved discussion that would accomplish nothing really, but would pass some time sitting on the porch while enjoying the day.

Instead, I would simply say that when it comes to people like Mitch, Chuck, Nancy, et al, they are not "controlled" by the voter. And they all work together.
We must get back to the beginning principles of the founding of our nation before it
became a corporation in 1871.
The answer to the question I asked is "The Bankers"
I tried to send you a PM describing what I was talking about but your PM's are filtered.

The Bilderbergers, Rockefellers & Rothschilds. These are the richest people in the world.

Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, & LeBron James moneys combined, couldn't make a pimple on the ass in wealth vs the 3 wealthiest families that control everything.
