Get away with what? Counting all the votes?

If you tell people they can vote by mail... and they do.... you can't then turn around and say, "oh yeah, we decided not to count your vote since you sent it through the mail like we told you that you could, sorry!"

Honestly, vote my mail or don't vote by mail, we can do whatever - I don't really care, but once we commit to the method(s), we commit to them, end of story.

As I said in my other post, there are rigorous protocols to ensure integrity while counting votes when they are done in person.

None of that exists for mail in.

How do I even know my vote was counted ?

Vote in person, or nobody will accept the results.

The only mail-in votes should be servicemen/women on active duty overseas.
Active duty in the states should be live, in person, at a polling location on base.

I'll add another. Those confined to a hospital bed that cannot get out to vote. Those votes should be through polling volunteers who are assigned the hospital duty of securing those votes. Two pollsters need to be assigned to work together, one from each major party to ensure the integrity of the votes cast.

So, basically, what you are saying is "the only mail-in votes should be absentee ballots".
An already existing method of voting that requires the person to REQUEST the ballot be sent. Not just automatically sent to whomever they want, willy-nilly. And which is validated prior to being sent to the person, and after it is returned.

Hell, they should have to be notarized as far as i am concerned.

There is no plan. And if there was, he doesn't know it.

Very common that the dementia patient develops paranoia. My dad kept telling us how people in the assisted care facility were stealing his things. I always had a good relationship with my dad but at one point he was calling me non-stop and accused me of strange things. He told me what a terrible son I was and I blew my cool which resulted in me telling him if I was such a bad son I guess he didn't need to call me 15 times a day anymore and hung up on him.

He was a podiatrist and had 2 offices. He was well respected by all who met him. At the end he had no memory of my mom. He basically threw everything out in his house that meant anything to me and my sister without us knowing. Having so much in life and at the end all of his possessions fit in one small suitcase.

After he lunged at me with the knife I left the facility he was in by my sister in Houston. Thought about flying back home. The staff convinced me to come back later in the day because it wasn't him. I knew that but it still hurt. I went back and told him he was pretty mean to me earlier and he said, "I was?" He said he didn't mean to be. I told him I knew that. I then asked him what I could do for him. He looked me straight in the eyes and said, "You can kill me." It was after that comment he told me I looked like a nice guy and everything but how does he know I'm actually his son and he wanted me to prove to him that I was his son. Still tear up just thinking about this. This was the last memory I have of him.

This is truly sad. My condolences. My wife and I went through a nearly identical situation with my FIL with dementia before he passed, but ended with him and I on an oddly positive note. My FIL and I rarely saw eye to eye, disagreeing most of the time. He was a former Buffalo police officer, retired in the mid 80's, what you could say was a " pull no punches " kinda guy. Ex-Wife invited him to a 4th of July party at our house years ago. We had assembled chairs in the driveway ( small yard) for everyone to sit. I sat down, him immediately to my left. I vape, he was a former smoker himself. He was in his 80's at the time, quit years before. I pulled out my e-cig and took a puff. He asked me, " what the hell is that thing ?" I told him an e-cig , same as smoking " His response was classic Dad , "Well, you look like a @#%, knock it off next to me", followed immediately by " How the hell do u get anything done with that thing in your hand? At least with a cigarette, it can hang from your mouth, 2 hands to work with. That? Ya look f****** stupid ". Like I said, pulled no punches.
His last day with us was strange, but expected. He had dealt with dementia for ~3 years at that points. His health was failing, and we all knew it was near the end. He was admitted to the ER for kidney failure and heart failure. He wasn't "with us" coherently but talking. Both my wife and I were in the room with him as he talked incoherently and at 1 point my wife needed to step out to speak with the doctors. As I said, he and I rarely agreed on anything. This is important. After my wife stepped away, he turned to me and started talking to me, not as me, but as his partner from the force before he retired, calling me "Schmidty". He began telling my what a good guy I was ( as Schmidty) and how he wished we could have done more things together. I knew he died recognize me as me, but I also knew this was potentially the end. He needed someone to listen, not correct him, to be around with him. For a few minutes, I was Schmidty. Just an old friend. Even though I knew he didn't see me as me, it was the one time he and I truly talked. Until the end, when he finally recognized it wasn't Schmidty he was talking to, it was me. When he finally realized......he smiled and said I was one of the good guys, and I told him he was too, and that I loved em. It was our last conversation together. He passed quietly less than 1 hour later.
I was and still am thankful for that last conversation.

What is he saying now? Even if I could make sense of it, he has ZERO energy or enthusiasm and looks like a frail old man that is either going to fall asleep or die at any moment.

he told them a black man invented the light bulb not Edison well he was half right Edison did not invent the light bulb it was a white British chemist Warren de La Rue 40 years earlier. Edison improved it

 

[BuffNiag]

Seemed very labored at that talk. Something definitely isn’t right with him.

 

[Elwood]

That video is just cringy, he had no direction of what he was talking about, his mental capacity is definitely questionable, and he looked like he was ready for a nap.

Readying .. wth .. fix your damn English please ..

"she outed them refusing to readying"

verb
gerund or present participle: readying

1. prepare (someone or something) for an activity or purpose.
   "the spare transformer was readied for shipment"

He met with community leaders at Kenosha's Grace Lutheran Church

So, let me make sure I have this straight. Churches are too dangerous to open for worship services but are safe to open for political rallies? Although, it could be argued that they were there to worship their god.

Biden confirms coronavirus test, says he’ll be tested regularly - The Boston Globe

The Democratic presidential nominee told reporters of his testing protocol during a wide-ranging news conference in which he blasted Trump for downplaying the coronavirus and thus ensuring that it will continue to kill Americans and ravage the economy.

Laying the groundwork to miss the debates. He’ll be excused with a doctor’s note.

How many times is he going to claim to have it ?

You pretty much either get over it or die in a few weeks, are they going to try to schedule all 3 debates within a couple weeks of each other, then claim he's got covid for all 3 ?

Or is he going to be the first person in the world to catch it 3 times ?

It would be pretty easy for the campaign to string out an actual COVID diagnosis followed by “complications” for the span of 3.5 weeks when debates are scheduled. As a bonus, they will blame Trump for not containing the virus.

I will be amazed and highly amused if the debates actually take place as scheduled.

It is the damnedest presidential campaign in history.

100 years from now people are going to be reading about it in history books and marveling at the candidate who's strategy was to avoid the public eye as much as possible and let the yellow journalists try to get him elected anyway.
