Can S.F. sway the presidential election? Drag queens support the resistance by writing to swing voters
San Franciscans are phone banking. Texting. Writing postcards. Holding Zoom parties with friends to write letters. Raising money to pay for rides to the polls for voters who can’t drive. And, of course, donating money.

A friend of mine just took several thousand hand-written letters to the mail box. He's been working on them for months!

I'm talking about the post and other people who are talking about people supposedly getting sent multiple ballots in one location in a "DEM-HEAVY" area. As for your hypo, that could be true with the system as it is but how likely would people do that? And technically, that could have happened for a long time, but now certain people are trying to stoke the fear of voter fraud in that manner because they have vested interest in making voting as difficult as possible.
Yeah something to do with a newspaper that broke a story. Poor Hunter. He’s a private citizen for god’s sake. I wish Twitter would ban Trump.Until the suspension is lifted. Apparently, it has to do with illegally obtained material about Hunter Biden. Trump, at least, is tweeting again.

I love it! Everyone has a say!
The databases are synched somehow because the state of Pennsylvania sends me mail, wherever I am in the world, encouraging me to vote in Pennsylvania, a state where I haven't lived since 2007. They're clearly updating the records of people who moved out of the state, and then sending reminders to those people to vote in Pennsylvania
.There's photo proof here: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/mail-in-voting-ballots/
In the past week, three people I know in Philadelphia have received additional ballots and provided me with photographic proof. One is a member of this board (though mostly a lurker), and I will see if they are willing to post.
I would like to make it as easy as possible. The hoops I have to go through are unbelievable - I'm going to have to buy a f***king printer that can take US sized paper to vote in a contest where the popular vote is meaningless.
But what we have is a clusterf*ck, where some people are receiving multiple ballots and other people are being asked to do craft projects that require a printer, special sized paper, and following four pages of instructions.
Voting by app would seriously be better and more secure.

I suspect the email is fake. The whole situation sounds incredibly unlikely.
-No reputable repair shop would be looking through a customer's emails
-Why would he still have an email from a situation that happened that many years ago?
Most of us have to throw out emails periodically because we run out of space in our gmail accounts or they disappear after so many days automatically. And that's just regular emails, not ones that could derail a parent's campaign.
-If the email didn't disappear over time, why wouldn't he have deleted it manually once this situation became a campaign issue.
ETA and Rudi Guliani isn't trustworthy in any way shape or form.
Until the suspension is lifted. Apparently, it has to do with illegally obtained material about Hunter Biden. Trump, at least, is tweeting again.
So illegally obtained material about Trump's tax returns are fine, but illegally obtained material about Hunter Biden is not?
What's good for the goose should be good for the gander, and the obvious bias in the media is just going to stoke Trump supporters, drive them deeper into conspiracy theories, and probably drive turnout.

I admit I am here just to see how it is going with the US election. Pardon me if I do not read everything and I am a bit behind, just a small question...
Why are people still voting for this guy after all that happened for the last 4 years?
And this... https://twitter.com/meiselasb/status/1316553061347672064?s=20
Note than I am not American so I would say I do not understand the American mindset.

Trump is the president ... the Democratic candidate is Joe Biden, not Hunter Biden. Hunter Biden is not even a candidate. Presidents (and candidates) are fair game; private citizens are not.So illegally obtained material about Trump's tax returns are fine, but illegally obtained material about Hunter Biden is not?
...
We've been trying to figure out that one too.

It
It was a tabloid and they didn't break anything. This is old news and has been rehashed multiple times. There is every indication this breaking news was from a Russian bot which is why FB and Twitter have banned it being posted. It's a last minute desperation bid. Again.

Rudy's daughter is endorsing Biden. This is a fascinating read.
Rudy Giuliani Is My Father. Please, Everyone, Vote for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
I may not be able to change my father’s mind, but together, we can vote this toxic administration out of office.

I am just puzzled as most people around me are like: The US is a joke, how can we trust them with a president like that?We've been trying to figure out that one too.
And 4 years ago I saw many Americans mocked me on Facebook like "hey at least we have the best democracy in the world, unlike your piece of ****". I mean yeah my country is not perfect and no country is, just when we look at the "world leader" and we see such a disaster in the position, we really
at the American mindset.

Another false equivalency.So illegally obtained material about Trump's tax returns are fine, but illegally obtained material about Hunter Biden is not?
Trump's tax returns were obtained legally. This information about Hunter Biden isn't even verified as being real and was definitely obtained illegally if it was.
Personally, I doubt it's real. No computer repair place is going to rifle through their customer's emails and then publicize it if they want to stay in business or avoid being arrested.
Can’t you find a friend with a printer?The databases are synched somehow because the state of Pennsylvania sends me mail, wherever I am in the world, encouraging me to vote in Pennsylvania, a state where I haven't lived since 2007.

Also snopes said this about the ballot: However, anyone who received two ballots would not be able to vote twice because the ballots would have identical scanning codes. Only one vote per scan is counted. Any subsequent votes with the same scanning code are rejected by the county.

Trump insults NBC and claims he's being 'set up' by the town hall he wanted
President Trump has one thing in common with Ava DuVernay, Aaron Sorkin, and Mandy Moore right now — none of them are pleased with NBC's Thursday night programming.Speaking to supporters on Thursday afternoon, Trump launched into a typical meandering rant accusing media outlets of bias against...
They are going to ask him tough questions.

If we weren't in a *********, sure. I just got the printable ballot yesterday. I am returning home on Monday and will need to quarantine for two weeks. I either need to put the file on a USB drive, slide it under the door so that a friend willing to come to my flat can take it to somewhere that can print on U.S. sized paper, and hope it all ends up OK, or I need to order a printer.
How on earth did the New York Times obtain Trump's tax records legally?
That is such b.s. fake news. While the source may have had legal access to the returns, the source absolutely violated disclosure laws by sharing them with the New York Times.Teamgracie

I’m an American and I have no idea how people can vote for he who should not be named after these 4 years! It has many of us just sick over it all. It’s a sign to me that we have way too many stupid people in this country.

'The majority will vote for Biden': Florida's unions throw support behind ex-VP
Perhaps the most important factor to clinching the presidency is winning over voters in Florida to seize the state’s 29 electoral votes.

He's so full of it. He didn't have a problem with them when they were pacifying him while he was doing The Apprentice.

NBC is not obligated to participate in a town hall for Trump. It isn't sanctioned by the debate council. He's got bigger problems, starting with the $500 million Biden has in his coffers to spend on himself and the rest of the Democratic Party. There will be enough commercials on TV of Biden on every channel, including Fox, that Trump will lose his mind. I can't wait.
ETA: I'm torn. I can't stand Trump. I'd prefer to watch Biden's town hall. But Trump is such a train wreck. I can't help but be curious about the stupid sh*t that is bound to fall out of his face tonight....lol

And I suspect that this is exactly why NBC is doing it. They know Trump will be a disaster and hope that there are a lot of people who think like you and will watch him instead of Biden.
Never mind that Trump is a threat to the free press. As long as the ratings are good, they'll give him air time. Just like 2016.
