Here we go. Desperate Trump supporters will be tossing their mail ballots in trash cans, dumpsters, leaving them by the road, in the bushes by Dem HQs, and all manner of inventive places to try to discredit the election. They know they can still vote in person. Don't be fooled!
It is no easier in person. Trump supporters in Fairfax VA surrounded polling locations chanting pro-Trump slogans and harassing voters. Expect that to be common and even more vicious with armed men in camo on Nov. 3. Voting by mail is the safe choice and not just for covid.
Get a grip.
Nobody harassed anyone. The Trump supporters were the required distance away from the entrance. When some voters in line got triggered by that, the FPD asked the Trump supporters to move even further away, which they did.
Too bad if there were those who were frightened by hearing "pro-Trump slogans". Maybe if such things frighten them, then they should never leave their house and vote by mail.
The total number of walk in votes should not be released until ALL of the mail in votes are counted. Who cares if it takes a couple of weeks at least we will know that votes wont be lost and show up later....
Republicans sued to make sure ballots not in the inner “privacy envolope” get discarded
Military ballots which come in very early got mistaken for applications, they opened the outer envelope and since the ballot wasn’t in the inner envolope it was spoiled
Spoiled ballots get tossed
Republicans cry fraud because the election officials are following their rules.

I'll buy that.
And the date of this counting and release, including mail-in votes, is ELECTION DAY. The date that's been advertised for months, if not years. That's the day we all VOTE. This fall, it's Nov. 3, 2020. Your vote (and mine) must be present at the official counting office (Registrar of voters, or City Hall, or whatever place your state or county officially counts votes) by the official Closing of the Polls that day.
If your vote isn't in that office by then, that's too bad. If you had gone to that office (or any legit, official polling place), it is absolutely certain your vote would be in the office by the right time. If you had relied on an unreliable system such as the mail, I'd have mailed it weeks in advance, sending it by Registered Mail with Return Receipt Requested. And I have made sure there was PLENTY enough time for it to get there by ELECTION DAY. That's a hassle, I know.
So do yourself a favor and go to the polls or City Hall on ELECTION DAY. Most states also let you designate a person (spouse, sibling, of-age adult child, trusted friend etc.) to bring in your ballot, I bring my wife's in every election, along with my own. You sign, the trusted friend signs, and security is maintained so that fanatic Democrats can't intercept it and alter or dispose of it.

We "know" nothing of the kind. People are already finding ballots in groups ranging from seven to a thousand, in ditches, dumpsters, you name it. And the real mass voting hasn't even begun. And NONE of these "stray" ballots belong to the people who used any of the tried-and-true methods I described above.
We have been voting by mail in my state since the 1990s. It was never a problem until Trump came along.
Why is it a problem now? Has something gone wrong, or fraud uncovered?
You are only TOLD it is a problem. So that's what you believe and even promote, even though no real problems have been uncovered.
And now you are being TOLD that the election will be tossed one way or the other by some magical force that has not caused a problem up to this point. So you believe it. All of it. And you have been told who to blame, too.
Good on Luzerne County District Attorney Stefanie Salavantis (Republican) for opening an investigation and getting the feds involved. I can only imagine how much this would have been swept under the rug had a Democrat been D.A.

No one cares about the truth. They also fail to mention that these ballots were for the Republican PRIMARY so of course they were mostly (not all) for Trump.
