School board and school budget votes were all by mail this year, too, in June.

Almost 100% of the budgets passed.

Go figure.

Multiply by 3,000 counties. There’s your stolen election.

States need to pass a law that states no ballot received after Election Day can be counted. There should also be a drop off place for ballots where you can hand deliver your ballot. This is how it should be for any absentee ballot.

I’m depressed by the pregnant presence of your present pressing passionate pressure points.

I have no understand about the concept of early voting.

What does it gain anyone?

Over 200 years of everyone going to a polling place on the same day and now everyone has to have their own special voting.

The old way was too hard to subvert. Too many chances for slip-ups, "Box 13" style stories to get out.

This way, the post office gets to have a say. There's no chain of custody, and everything's up for grabs.

“The election is going to be an endless nightmare.
Democrats are going to scream “EVERY VOTE COUNTS” so they’ll demand every vote postmarked after the election be counted.
We’ll never know when to stop counting votes without a court order.
No one will trust the results. “

And on election night the media will declare Biden the winner with 10% of the national vote in and 90% who knows where. The media will chant that Trump must concede and vacate the White House. We are being set up for that by Mrs Clinton and Mr Biden and others suggesting that Trump won’t leave on his own.

Votes will straggle in over a month or so and each one will need to be vetted. We are being set up for Alinsky-sized chaos and media gaslighting.

The counting will stop 10 seconds after the Democrats tally enough votes to win.

New York State’s 12th Congressional District (CD) [pop. 712k] is the 4th smallest CD by area at 14.79 square miles, split by the East River with about a 50-50 on Manhattan and Brooklyn. Its per capita income at $75k+ is first of all United States CDs with a demographic 64% White with Asian & Hispanic both at 14% and 5% Black.

What this means is that the early voting started on June 13 for the Primary Election Day of June 23rd AND Mail-In Ballots have to come in by June 30th. That is 10 days where the voter can put on their mask, descend to street level and SAUNTER to a ballot box. Yet it appears that this race depends upon a creaky, union-dominated USPS to get a results!

That the Demon-rats want this for our entire nation is incredible and nauseating!

They'll tell us the entrance and exit polls are more accurate than the actual votes.

Then you add in some Antifa/BLM burning down of post offices and you have some stunning chaos going on....

Yup, while a mob is surrounding the White House.

I thought the “Get out of Cheneys House” was truly a nonviolent protest but I don’t think the “What do we want? TRUMP OUT! When do we want it? NOW!” protest will be “mostly peaceful”.

Burning a couple of the big mail trucks would work, and be safer for the USPS folks AND the Antifa “community organizers”. Interesting thought though, I would not be too surprised. The PO near me is hardly a fortress.

This is practice for using against Trump to force him OUT of the WH.

It’s why they keep trying to get him to say he won’t contest the election.

My brother in law worked for the post office. He said working there was part concentration camp, part circus.

Do we really want to trust then with our elections?

A business with one of those postal meters could always set any date they want. And yes the postal service no longer cancels a huge portion of the mail. Especially mail that comes from government entities. You may wonder when was this sent? But you won’t find a post mark date on the envelope a lot of times. It entirely screws up any legal process that relies on the post date. There is no proof of anything.
