Wow,  a rookie said that?  Is that real?    Wow. 

 

And **** people who don't vote.     Colin Kaepernick being one of them.   Nobody said you have to vote for those two people running for President, and there are plenty of other things to vote on too.   But I guess when you are rich as hell, you will thrive no matter what.     Non-voters annoy me.   Do you know how lucky you are to have that power?  Do you know how many people in other countries suffer because they don't have that right?   

Another reason to hate Daniel Jones.    It used to be because he went to Duke, but it's so much more now too.

Given how many votes were cast in early voting in GA, state will likely exceed 2020 turnout.

There's the context. Perfect, thanks.

There seems be a lot of info about heavy turnout.  That’s the one thing Kamala has done well, she has gotten the base excited where Biden couldn’t.  Marry that to trumps team losing momentum (shocker that after nine freaking years people start to get tired of the same song) and this might not be as close as those herding polls suggested.

Another thing from my voting experience this morning.

Not only did I had to show my ID,  they looked very carefully at it and matched address, picture, and even signature.  

So much for the false maga narrative about anyone being able to vote without ID.  That is patently false here in the great state of Michigan.

But what about all those Trump people that silently support him and don't scream it or have giant flags in their yards or trucks.   Gotta be a big number there.      Because it's rare to find a Trump supporter who has to let the world know loudly.

I voted twice and I'm not even a U.S. Citizen.     BWAAA HA HA HA HA HA HA  (rubs hands together and squints like only evil people do).

People who are proud of not voting usually bluff their way through life with attitude and confidence because that’s all they know and they think they’re above it all. Nothing can ever please them or propel them out of their bunker of conceit.

Attitude and confidence are the two most easily available elements in the human universe. Everywhere from boardrooms and back alleys to battlefields is littered with the debris caused by attitude and confidence.

I showed my ID so I could vote early Monday last week at one of our few early polling stations. And they close at 5 PM — conveniently serving persons with flexible schedules, which means those with higher income levels than a lot of other people. There are many ways to suppress voting, and this is just one of those many ways.

The Bulwark Pod today they were joking about the 2028 GOP candidate they could support being a person who said 

-“money doesn’t grow on trees”

-“you are not leaving the house looking like that young man”

Obviously kidding but amusing.

You do not need ID to vote in Michigan. I have friends who have not brought their ID into a polling place in years, since this law went into effect, just to ensure the poll workers are not turning people away who do not have IDs.

If you tell them you do not have your ID, they are supposed to make you sign an affidavit attesting (under penalty of perjury) that you are who you claim you are, you are a US citizen, etc.

Looks like turnout in Philadelphia has been insane. That can only mean one thing, fraud. It can’t be all the people Trump offended.

My nephew has been volunteering in AZ for Harris and other Dems. He shared an internal meeting video where the speaker said Dems have knocked on 3 million doors nationwide this year. Most in swing states, obviously.

I think/hope that is something everyone underestimates. Americans get bored with everything pretty quickly.

Maybe if you actually had a message instead of trotting the unfunny human version of Triumph The Insult Comic Dog, you'd inspire more people.     Maybe hate only goes so far, but I'll never forgive your side for making me feel so hateful the last few years.    I only want to hate sports rivals, not real Americans.         But if he loses today, good luck in 2028.  If he has one marble left, he's running and and he'll get the nomination again.  You're stuck with him.

I used to do this before I went absentee only. I liked the Catch-22ness of signing an affidavit saying my original signature was valid.

Mayor of Philly now saying up to 50-100k more votes than in 2020. 

That's right on track, pending what the rest of the commonwealth does.

What kind of cretins are you hanging out with that purposely don’t carry ID.  That first sign of a bad seed,  the second being they own burglary tools and you can find a ski mask in their car in June.

'Melania' apparently won't take her big sunglasses off while inside as she appears with Trump today. 

You can't make it up....

It appeared she was a Melania impersonator.
