My wife just texted me. At the end of our street at the entrance to our neighborhood, there's a church. It has (had?) a Harris/Walz sign by the church sign. My wife called the church office and told them they had to remove it. She said they got huffy and asked why. She told them 'you are not an early voting site, and a single ad supports that candidate, which violates federal 503(c)(3) law. If you do not take it down I will report you.' She said they said they would take it down later.

My wife engaging in political activism lol :)
 
Now I'm not really a big voter fraud/conspiracy guy, but, here in Minnesota, we had the following situation a week or two ago (I doubt any of this made national news):
20241031_082844.jpg

This is a minivan with boxes of completed early voting ballots. The vehicle was found like this, open, unsecured, and unattended in a parking lot for over 5 minutes. The vehicle is owned by a courier company and travels around the county collecting ballots from various voting sites. The photo was taken by an election judge who just happened to be walking into the site at the time.

When transporting ballots, Minnesota law requires ballots be sealed and accompanied by two election judges who are not of the same political party. The county, which has the largest population in Minnesota - includes Minneapolis, was responsible for this action and evidently didn't feel following the law or securing ballots was a priority.

The county brushed it off as a relatively minor, isolated issue and reportedly fired the courier, but that doesn't remotely address any of the real problems, like was this SOP, is the county now following the law, and how many other times did this occur?

As if that weren't bad enough, just yesterday, the Minnesota Supreme Court found the same county was violating election law by failing to appoint ANY Republican election judges to it's absentee ballot board. The county has until tomorrow to comply, although the consequence of non-compliance is unclear. In the meantime, more ballots continue to be received daily. As of today, over 250,000 absentee ballots have been received by the county. As of now, no remedy or consequence is in place.

Like I said, I'm not a big voter fraud/conspiracy guy, but these aren't minor issues and should concern every voter.

This is Tim Walz's Minnesota.

...and somehow its the republicans that are causing people to loose faith in election integrity

You can save a lot of money just by making your kids wear rubber kitchen gloves on their feet instead of shoes or socks
Thank god - at least someone thought to put rubber gloves on that kid before feeding it to creepy old Uncle Joe
 
This guy's analysis has been very close over the past few elections. He goes through stats and compares previous results. If you want to see trends, here ya go. Disclaimer: He admits in several of his videos that he personally leans to the right, but tries to avoid personal bias as much as possible.


That video, or maybe even his channel, are gone.
 
OK, so this is interesting.

Following the line of discussion about liberals abandoning their parents over partisan domestic politics, I remembered something similar that happened a few years back and Googled "liberal woman condemns grandfather at funeral." These are the first two things that popped up:

Media bias?? What media bias...

Ditching your dad simply because he doesn't vote the same way you do? Yah, nah.

I want to know if dad just isn't voting the same as her, or it it's something more; my bet is the first one since she's blaming Trump.

Personally, I have 2 (extended) family members I no longer keep in contact with.

Back in 2008, young Cookie spent his last Thanksgiving before going off to the Army with family in Ohio. One uncle started discussing politics, and mentioned that he never thought the country would sink so low as to elect a n***er. He asked if I was going to not join the army, so I wouldn't work for the "Chimp in Charge". I haven't talked to him since 2012 when I last saw him in person, by happenstance when I was visiting my grandparents on that side of the family.

Thanksgiving time 2022. A cousin who was like a brother (literally a few months age difference) calls me to catch up. Tells me he thought about me because Colorado Springs was in the news from "the dude who killed those f****ts" and knew i lived in the area. I explain to him that I knew of two of the victims, and that I had a friend actually trying to invite us out with her that night. He just asked "when I started hanging out with queers".

My parents both bring it up as me "letting politics get in the way of family". I don't see it that way.
