US 2020 election

Postal voting's dodgy. It just is. There's probably a case for it during the pandemic or, like the London Mayor, you could postpone the vote. Odd how BBC types aren't up in arms about that.

[flatandy]

You could postpone the US election, of course, but that would result in a President Pelosi in the interregnum.

Why not Trump?

[jimboky]

you are confusing "Mail-in voting" with "Absentee voting" Most states have Absentee voting, you must request ballot and then you can mail it in, usually require to mail a few days before voting day, But this Mail-in voting will send everyone, dead, moved, or alive a ballot, this is made to order for fraud, which the dems are known for, why would you 2mo before a major election try to start this if not for the chance to instill confusion, I believe the Nancy idea of yours is the goal, Biden will do good to hold NY, I do believe he will hold California though,

It's very similar here. You can apply for postal voting weeks before the election. It's really designed for people who can't get to the polling station- working abroad or disabled. Just like with you, our Labour party specialises in voter fraud using postal voting.

[flatandy]

So, I'm confusing votes that get mailed in with votes that get mailed in?

Oregon, Washington, Utah, Hawaii and Colorado have had universal mail-in voting for a while now, with no sign of any problems of "everyone getting a ballot".

[jimboky]

they didn't just start it 6weeks before election,

[flatandy]

Most states have been trying to get this set up since March, given that we have a pandemic on our hands so putting people inside, together, unnecessarily in a relatively high-infection situation seemed obviously idiotic and it would make sense instead to try and have as much election remote as possible.

why start with the president election, why not test it on a local election, oh some did, they tried it on primaries, with some it was mouths before the results were known, boxes of ballots found here and there, total mess, it gives the chance of the Nancy thing a chance, though that would require her hold the house

Because we have a pandemic this year. That's why they are accelerating the process this year.

And yet the only fraud uncovered by his investigation into voter fraud in 2016 was a GOP house race that was overturned and had to be rerun cos the GOP candidate was committing voter fraud on a massive scale. As has been said many times there is no evidence of widespread voter fraud due to mail in voting, there just isn't, and peddling the party lie does not make it so

So when Fauci says schools should remain closed until case rates drop, or that mask usage is essential to stop spreading the virus, and that social distancing is imperative, that you should avoid large indoor gatherings the cult freaks out, denounces him, threatens his and his families lives tries to get him fired, arrested and locked up when ever he corrects the lies and bullshit Trump witters daily.

However the idiot and the cult constantly use an out of context comment by Fauci on voting in person to try and prove mail in voting is unnecessary,its the usual mendacious crap the idiot loves

[voice]

Yes, the guidelines that are not being put in places at polling places, the same guidlines the cult denounces him for when its suggested be applied almost everywhere else, if you were a little less of an idiot that might strike you as incredibly hypocritical, but being a full on moron you simply lack the ability.

“ Amy Dorris told the UK's Guardian newspaper that Mr Trump groped various parts of her body and forcibly kissed her as she came out of a bathroom at the US Open tennis tournament.”

Sounds like his MO (based on his own words.)

[whitewine]

How the hell he became POTUS is beyond belief.

Read what we wrote.

It appears that you can't read.

Also, she's right. The US was founded on racism and slavery. The US didn't give women basic rights for a century and a half. And many people still bizarrely seem to try to ignore that fact.

[flatandy]

I am going to be so happy seeing the right's meltdown when Kamala becomes President and appoints Ayanna Pressley as her VP.

[voice]

I see today Trump has admited he can't win a free and fair election, saying there won't be a need for transfer of power when they stop the votes of democrats counting. Democracy is out of control apparently and needs to be stopped at all costs or there will violence.
