“DeMuro fraudulently stuffed the ballot box by literally standing in a voting booth and voting over and over, as fast as he could, while he thought the coast was clear. This is utterly reprehensible conduct. The charges announced today do not erase what he did, but they do ensure that he is held to account for those actions,” McSwain added.
I don't know what the fuss is all about. After all, the end justifies the means, doesn't it?

It's a study of the two sides. One is willing to blatantly cheat to win, and the other side is happy to figure out how to tie a noose (after rolling over for the cheaters for several generations)
Unfortunately, being reactive probably won't matter for us in the end. In the present, we can't even object to *expletive deleted*ing NON- CITIZENS voting lest we get labeled all kinds of horrible "ists"
Get a rope.

Remember, it's only fraud when conservatives do it.
When liberals do it, it's ensuring that everyone who has the right to vote gets to vote.

With Universal Mail-In Voting (not Absentee Voting, which is good), 2020 will be the most INACCURATE & FRAUDULENT Election in history. It will be a great embarrassment to the USA. Delay the Election until people can properly, securely and safely vote???

I think he does stuff like that deliberately to stir up the media/left.
It makes sense. If going to the polls is so dangerous that we all have to mail in ballots, then why don't we delay the election 6 months? By that logic, it is also too dangerous to go to the grocery store, or restaurants, or anywhere else. It is also too dangerous to get packages shipped in by UPS or Fedex or the Post Office from random stores and locations around the US or world.

Trump opened his mouth and inserted his phone with the tweet about the Section 8 housing changes the other day. The guy, and by extension his reelection team, seems to pay zero attention to the optics of what he tweets. At this rate he is tanking his chances for reelection.

I think the election tweet was dumb, but not so much the "affordable housing" tweet. Sure, it will set off the MSM and all the other usual suspects, but I think it will appeal to the "voted for Trump but won't admit it" voters.
This whole business of, "You can only build a subdivision if 20% of the houses are for the disadvantaged (i.e.,multi-generational welfare families)" appeals to all the woke people optics-wise, but none of them actually want that housing anywhere near them. Neither do most non-woke people, but nobody wants to come out and say it.
It's kinda like busing. People don't scrimp and save to move to good neighborhoods just to then have their kids bussed to the worst schools in the region, often back to where they escaped from.

I highly doubt the results will be in on Nov 4th. That's one of the issues with voting by mail - people expect instant results and they're going to freak out when they don't get them.
-
There will be vote-by-mail in a number of states. Get used to the notion. And the final results will not be tallied by Nov. 4th. Hell, we'll be lucky of the results are finally in by Feb. 4th.
And the Democrats will claim that the delay just means Joe Biden's VP pick won the Presidency.
-
I admit I haven't really been following it, since this election is so *expletive deleted*ed and keeping up with it all is exhausting, but vote by mail isn't exactly new. Are states planning on just not having in person polls at all? Which ones? I know that several states have had voluntary early and mail voting for at least a decade.
Shouldn't this be up to the individual states to run their elections anyway?

Granny nan is demanding national mail in voting with ballots mailed to every registered voter.

I reiterate:
Isn't how states run their elections up to the states? I feel we already did this rodeo during the "Electoral votes of state X must go to popular vote winner" kerfuffle.
I'm sure legislators are talking and executives are tweeting, because that's what gets them through the day, but they don't currently have the power to do that at a federal level, and there is zero chance they could manage to pass legislation giving them that power in two months.
At the state level? Yeah, I would probably want to watch that, but are there actual proposals from people with the power to do it?
Much like POTUS tweeting that we should delay the election, it's cute when they talk, but that's not a power the president has.

I posted this in another thread a couple of days ago:
Washington state first began voting by mail in special elections in 1983, began permanent absentee voting by mail in 1991, and virtually all counties switched to all mail ballots in 2005. Other than some races not being decided until two weeks after election day after all the ballots trickle in and are counted, it has been a pretty trouble-free process. I have voted only by mail since 1991. Starting two years ago, you don't even have to put a stamp on the ballot. You can mail the ballots or drop them into a collection box. We usually drop them in the box since collection boxes are outside libraries, amongst other places, and I go to the library often.
-
Do they just mail to all registered voter? And do they have good checks on the voter roles?

Pretty similar to what I was doing in CA before I left. You just get your ballots without asking.
I'm still not totally familiar with Idaho methodology, and we're apparently changing right now due to COVID. However up until now, I have voted absentee. To do so, I have to go to my county website and download a form that I then mail or email to them. I have to specify that I want absenteee and also which elections I want to have absentee ballots for, sign the form and send it in. IIRC, I didn't have a choice of more than three upcoming elections. After that, you have to download an updated form and start all over again. Again, they are apparently changing things now, and it sounds like they are moving closer to the CA/WA method.
As far as mail-ins having an effect on an election, I wonder if WA/CA type mail-in is relatively trouble free because of the makeup of those states? I can't see the mail-in ballots not counted till two weeks later having much of an impact in any presidential election. They will likely follow the very liberal demographics of those states. I would expect the same of any predominately conservative states that have a mail-in system.
Where I think it will get tricky is in those swing states where the counts can be close. Mail-ins not fully counted till 2-4 weeks after the election could definitely impact the electoral college, given the electors of the state give their votes based on the popular vote within that state. If it's a close election, and a swing state has enough electoral votes to impact the final count on election night, things could get ugly.

That is a relatively easy fix though. There is plenty of time to count if we're smart about it.
rather than changing the election date, Congress should act to push back—just for this year—the date by which states have to finalize results and the date on which the electors meet. Pushing those back by two or three weeks could give contested states a lot more breathing room to deal with the actual challenges involved in mail-in voting while the election, certification, and inauguration would all go on as scheduled.

If the ballots trickle in for two weeks, why aren’t ALL the results held up until ALL the votes are counted? How do they determine when all the ballots that are going to be cast have been received? What do they do to insure the integrity of ballots in collection boxes?

For a primary election, the results are certified 17 days after election day, and in a general election, certified 30 days after election day. Ballots received after those dates are not counted. Of course, the majority of races are not close and the winner is obvious on or shortly thereafter election day. Many people in the state, me for one, mail in the ballot early, so those are already in hand and ready to be counted on election day.
-
After the measured, thoughtful and mostly peaceful debate we've been having about Covid numbers (and everything else the past 20 years), I can't wait for the aftermath of a mail-in election.
-
Do they just mail to all registered voter? And do they have good checks on the voter roles?
You have to be a registered voter to receive a ballot. In order to register to vote in Washington, you have to show or provide your driver's license number or the last four digits of your SSN, which are electronically checked against your name and date of birth.
-
So they don't have any 205 year old woman or over 100% registered voters in any district?
That is the problem I have with mailing them to everyone not just people that request them.
-
Many people in the state, me for one, mail in the ballot early, so those are already in hand and ready to be counted on election day.
I also send mine in early - usually several weeks before the election. That is certainly one way to handle things as well - have a separate, early voting deadline for mail-in ballots that's at least a week prior to the in-person day.

Which means an illegal immigrant with a drivers license can register to vote.

Apparently the USPS was being lazy:
Much of the blame fell on the Postal Service, which failed to postmark thousands of ballots despite a policy that it do so.
“Despite the postal service’s best efforts, there is uncontroverted evidence that thousands of absentee ballots for the June 23 Primary were not postmarked,” Torres wrote. “This could be due to a number of human or mechanical errors.”

Or they were just added into the mail pile at the vote counting location by someone else. How would anyone know?

So in the big scheme of things, I wonder which is the most inherently secure means of voting: paper ballots or electronic voting machines? I think we discussed this previously, and the consensus of the IT people here was that electronic means could be hacked six ways from Sunday.

Paper ballots collected at voting locations monitored by bipartisan election judges
Electronic ballots collected at voting locations monitored by bipartisan election judges
Mail-in paper ballots

Internet-delivered electronic voting.

I saw a video on the 'net by a woman who lives with her brother. She is an R and her brother is a D. They were sent mail in ballots and she showed the envelopes and and the ballots. The return envelope for the ballot had a bar code on it. Her envelope had a capital R in the bar code and her brother's had a capital D on his return envelope. Since it was on the 'net who knows if it was true or not, but sure is food for thought.

To me, voting is THE most important occurrence in our Republic. It should be guarded like nothing else. It is also voluntary. If you can't get off your dead, lazy ass to vote in such a manner that shows you are actually eligible to vote, and then do so, then I don't give a rat's ass about you or what you think about the process.
The cavalier way the Democrat Party treats this national honor, disqualifies them from my consideration of anything they propose and further makes that political party a danger to our Republic.
-
In my election district in NC, we personally hand our filled out ballot to one of the election workers. That worker then runs the ballot through the electronic counting machine while the voter is standing next to them. That leaves little doubt for the voter that their ballot was properly tallied.
Contrast that to vote by mail systems like Oregon has used for many years. A voter has no idea whether their ballot was properly tallied. Voters have to trust that their ballot is not going to be cherry picked from the system by an unscrupulous government worker that does not approve of how they voted.

As far as I am concerned absentee ballots and early voting cures any question about the “COVID Risk”.
Mass mail in ballots are plainly an attempt at mass fraud, and I don’t mean fraud by the Republicans but by the party that is famous for delaying military ballots and finding “crates of absentee ballots in the trunks of cars”

1) Lack of mail in ballots hasn't stopped massive fraud before (see, 1960 presidential election and Chicago/Texas)

Cue the Magic Station Wagon of Ballots
-
Personally, I think the only thing they might get out of the Axios reported thing is two months later, something like 51% of the popular vote (mostly from California again), then once again, cue the attack on the Electoral College.
-
It might be interesting. If it ends up in the federal courts, the 9th circuit isn't what it was 4 years ago, or even 2 years ago.
-
I think Trump truly believes there is no such thing as bad publicity.
President Trump on Wednesday suggested supporters in North Carolina should illegally attempt to vote both by mail and in person, saying doing so would test the integrity of the system.
-
I think Trump truly believes there is no such thing as bad publicity.
Trump knows the ONLY way the press will talk about that very danger of mail-in voting is if he brings it up.
That so many people don't understand how Trump works after 4 years of observing him is mind-boggling to me.

I don't watch the news or really listen to Trump- can you please explain?

I think he's saying that the media has been pushing the value of universal mail in voting as a way to improve Democrat turnout, but if he says something positive about it or implies that it might be used fraudulently to improve Republican turnout they will have to reflexively reject it.

The Washington Post's take:

If Biden doesn't win by a landslide, the country will burn.
Glad I ordered hard armor last week I guess. I might need to get with a few neighbors to dig a big dumpin' hole we can share for when the rioters make it out this way. Maybe buy some lime before there's a run on it.

If they thought Biden was going to win, they wouldn't publish that.

I really doubt it myself. Oh, I am sure there will be demonstrations and protests and some violence in the usual places, but not all over. Certainly not in Idaho. I doubt there will be a whole lot anywhere law enforcement isn't purposefully held back by the local leadership.
It is not near as bad as it looks right now, IMO. Outside the handful of areas that are having issues, Americans are going about their lives. Will there be some crazy people trying to start crap? Yes. Will that create chaos all over? I don't think so.

Well, yeah, I was being somewhat facetious for where I live, but I can certainly see it happening in a good many larger cities in the usual suspect states. At least as much as is going on now. My, "country will burn" statement was just repeating what the WP said, not what I believe. I was not clear.
Which, while I hate to see the destruction, I certainly think it will cause that many more regular people to say, "enough".
-
It isn't a time for over the top language when reality is over the top already. It's like....my opinion man.
That said some specific areas are likely screwed for a while. New York City is one of them I think. They shut down all the restaurants and clubs then they allowed looters to loot a bunch of the nice stores. On top of that, the "bail reform" has criminals going through revolving door jails making crime look almost consequence free. From what I have heard, people are moving out. As long as the current mayor and Gov are in charge, I really doubt anything will change for the better.
Other cities have similar crime issues and bail reform has happened in at least a few states. I am concerned crime will get worse going forward at least in certain areas.
-
I think any larger metro area is seeing and will continue to see increasing crime and violence.
A Trump win in November will bring out the crazies and make tings worse.
even Tulsa has seen a significant increase in crime.

IMO, that has little to do with Trump and more to do with State level laws on crime and punishment getting softer with lesser penalties for lower level felonies and repeat offenses.
Also, cops being on camera 24/7 are reluctant to lay hands on suspects even when they are combative and earn what they get. I am surprised just how aggressive and combative some of these people are. It appears to be just an extreme disrespect for police and the assumption that the police won't hurt them even if they fight. I realize that is just a few people, but it is a bit shocking.

I think it WILL have something to do with Trump, just for the reasons you laid out above. These rioters are at a point now where there are two possible outcomes in the big cities where they riot. Either nothing happens to them, or the local gov caves and they get what they want. They will apply that to a Trump win, even if he carries 400 electoral votes. Only Trump is not going to cave and say, "Oh, okay, I'll just step down". Which means they will continue to destroy stuff in those big cities, because there will be no repercussions, and they also won't be getting what they want.
That's a given, IMO. What's not a given is if they think they can get away with "taking it to the suburbs" (Narrator: "They can't").

I think violent riots in the event of a Trump victory are certain.
If we are lucky, they won't last for four years. [tinfoil]

[Ben dons his tinfoil hat]
Something in the below story struck me. It's a local news story, talking about how Canyon County, Idaho doesn't have enough experienced poll workers, so they are limiting physical polling places. As part of the story, they mention that Ada County (next door and home of liberal Boise) has more poll workers applying than they know what to do with.
An aside to that part of the story is that Ada County mentioned they had even been getting calls from out of state (i.e., non-Idaho residents), specifically from Seattle, with people volunteering to come down and be Ada County poll workers. My tinfoil alert automatically went off. Seattle, an SJW mecca, has people who want to volunteer to be out of state poll workers. Not in a county that needs poll workers (and happens to be very conservative), but in the county in Idaho with the highest population, which is also the most liberal county in Idaho.
Seems like if you wanted to help the liberal agenda of "everybody gets to vote (liberal), that might be a way to insert your bias into an election. One wonders who trained these Seattle poll workers, and also how they got the idea to volunteer in Boise, and maybe other cities across the country.
Perhaps this is something that happens every election and it's just interested citizens wanting to do their civic duty with no hidden agenda, but the out of state aspect caused me to raise an eyebrow.

That has fraud and abuse written all over it. Just my opinion but poll workers should be local citizens known to the local voters for integrity and accountability. If you absolutely need outsiders for man power: national guard.

I was just coming here to post that.
Couple of observations:
Men (military age male, in the parlance) going around to the women and elderly and just taking what they need for today's scheme, and the women and elderly just rolling with it? Definitely fits with my experience of Somali (and Arab actually) culture. Americans will be like "Why would you just hand over your ballot?" Because that's how their culture does it. There doesn't even need to be an explicit threat of violence. These men represent the person who runs the [neighborhood, ward, project] and you do what they say. Welcome to the third world, or to quote Leonardo DiCaprio "T.I.A".
Second. what is it about folks doing shady *expletive deleted*it videoing themselves doing shady *expletive deleted*it? I know those guys are untouchable in Ward 5 or whatever, but Billy Jo Crazy might be on snapchat and think you just volunteered for martyr duty. I guess it's good for us these types never do OPSEC training.

Another Democrat busted.
“According to the Denton County Sheriff’s Office, investigators began their probe into Mohamed on Sept. 23 after county elections officials alerted them that several absentee ballots were being mailed to the same post office box, which allegedly belonged to a nursing facility,” The Texas Tribune reported. “Investigators watched the postal facility and placed an undercover officer there. On Oct. 7, police saw that a box of requested ballots was picked up from the location, and followed the suspect. A search warrant was obtained for Mohamed’s residence, the sheriff’s statement says, where police found a box containing the requested ballots, including several that were open. The fraudulent driver’s license used to rent the post office box was also found during the search.”

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/california-unofficial-ballot-drop-off-boxes
I read a few articles on this and the progressive sources are blaming Republicans. It being CA, I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't one of the commie pinko progressive groups doing it and making it look like Republicans. The Republican presidential vote doesn't even count in CA anymore, so there's little motivation for conservatives to set something like this up. They'd literally have to steal 5,000,000 ballots to have an impact.
Regardless, these "official" drop off boxes are an absolutely stupid idea. They are ripe for abuse. Drop your ballot in a damn official location or a bolted to a wall or the sidewalk USPS mailbox.

Apparently it is not a commie pinko progressive conspiracy.
California’s Republican Party on Monday acknowledged owning unofficial ballot drop boxes that state election officials said are illegal.
...
State GOP spokesman Hector Barajas said that the party owns the boxes. He declined comment on how many exist and where they are located. Barajas said the state’s law governing so-called ballot harvesting allows an organization to collect and return groups of ballots.

Why I decided to vote in person.
Aside from the fact that this whole mail-in process makes a mockery out of having a day set aside as "election day." If people start voting a month before "election day," and votes are still coming in and being counted after "election day," what meaning does "election day" have?

It's not that having a single "day" for voting is somehow significant. The reason voting should be limited to a single day as much as possible (absentee voting with a valid reason for missing voting day is acceptable) is that it limits the opportunity for fraud.
Which is why the Democrats are so very adamantly against having a single day of voting.
ADDITIONALLY, limiting the voting to a single day means that people have to make an effort to vote and take their responsibility as citizens seriously.
Democrats REALLY don't want that kind of people deciding who should run the country.

Early voting just gives the cheating bastards an idea of how much they need to cheat, and should be done away with. Absentee ballots for anyone that requests them is fine. Voting shouldn't be convenient, unless you enjoy the effects of fraud.
Strict voter ID should be a thing too, but what do I know, I'm just a dirty racist.

I agree, and I also agree with Makattak's points. These are also my points. Voting [once per election] is a civic duty and a moral responsibility. I don't want a government chosen by people who won't be bothered to get their rumps off the sofa and go to the polling station on election day.
