    I approve this message. And even better: Postmarks don't count. Has to be in by 7 p.m. It's tremendous.

    Though the SOS office is, rightly, getting beaten up today:

    Colorado Secretary of State posted voting system passwords online

    And in another move, local anchor recounted many issues with the SOS office and raked the SOS over the coals.

    Mail-in voting isn’t a red state thing because Republicans do better with lower turnout. Simple as that.

    I remember Macho Man's pop, Angelo Poffo, when he tagged with Chris Markoff. I think that was Bobby Heenan's first stint as a diabolical manager.

    Firewalls work because it removes the possble number of voters on election day. If the other side already has fewer registered voters and is down a significant amount, they essentially can't catch up.

    You mean it's a scam to give the illusion a trump win in inevitable, the same as bogus right-wing polls, so he can claim cheating and unleash his violent supporters if he loses?

    Shocked. Shocked I tell you.

    Right, but I don't think you can accurately project the margin of those firewalls right now based on early voting habits, because those habits were heavily influenced by the pandemic.

    Edit to add that the head analyst at RCP just wrote early voting data risks being misinterpreted and Jon Ralston, the poll data king in Nevada, agreed.

    A high school friend of mine thinks General Kelly has “credibility issues” for this reason

    How does that affect Kelly’s credibility? That isn’t a reason for Kelly to lie about him.

    Maria Cardona saying Latino polling has Harris surging past Biden's numbers and will skyrocket because of the comedian.

    Same going for Black America because of the watermelon joke.

    Ralston has himself said that analyzing early voting in Nevada is much harder than it was because there's been a large increase in non-party affiliation registered voters because voters are automatically registered when they acquire or renew a driver's license.

    Exactly, and Nevada is the one state where we could have traditionally gotten some valuable insight because they do early voting so well.

    But because of that registration change, even Nevada is an unknown.
