Correct, I could have done it. I didn't, though. I dropped my ballot in the locked ballot box at the Township Clerk's office with precisely zero other people around.

Im pretty sure she didn’t wait in line for 4 hours in order to vote. I voted absentee, because I can’t stand for that long.

[quote=HJ99;59548456]At 110, not so sure she is worried about anything anymore. She has already beaten the odds. Do you think she really wants to get to 120+?????[/quote]


Ask her.


God does not let many get to 120.

Good point. She doesn't have many years to lose.

You can't really be that obtuse?

Some states have made voting by mail an option for a long time. They have systems already set up and in place for it.


But not all states have these systems in place, and with the increased turnout for this election along with Covid the shear number of mail in ballots is putting a strain on the system.

I just saw a story about Florida post offices that are stacked up the walls with undelivered ballots.

That and the amount of division in the country right now, there is a tremendous amount of incentive for people to cheat and mail in ballots offer them more opportunities to do so.

Democrats have made it a big deal..A passive aggressive anti Trump statement.
