Over 30 million people have voted so far! That's 21.7% of the total who voted in 2016 (about 138 million). This year, it is expected that 150 million or more might vote, so it's probably about 20% in the bank.
Democrats are doing a great job of getting out and voting early. Obviously, the most committed people will vote first and we have a long way to go, but we have a lot of votes in the bank and a lot more than Republicans. I think the Republicans are making a big mistake by bashing mail-in voting and they don't seem to be encouraging early in-person voting either. There is nothing wrong with voting in person on election day, but getting votes in early helps to avoid unexpected events - bad weather, virus outbreaks, your car not starting, etc. On the campaign level, it also allows the Biden campaign to see where votes have been cast and where they are outstanding. The Republicans have a lot less early votes in so they are more in the dark. Here is the cool early vote tracker I am keeping an eye on: https://electproject.github.io/Early...20G/index.html

I wish I could share in the optimism that those out voting early are voting for Biden. When I see the big turnouts Trump drew in Janesville WI and then again today in Prescott AZ it really scares me! Four years ago at this time we thought Hillary had it all sewed up but look how that turned out.. ![]() |

The situation is not the same as 2016. However, nothing should be taken for granted and people who have not yet voted definitely need to.

When Hillary ran I knew deep inside that she would lose, but this time I don’t get that same feeling. Hillary made a horrible choice for a V.P. Running mate, and was so sure of her win that she appeared arrogant., which is a bad combo for running against a dynamic person proposing change. Anything can happen, but Trump winning without help, not worried. |

Biden will need earplugs
QUOTE=~ocean;1276792]on Thursday's debate each question asked to either Trump or Biden the other one's mic will be shut off so no interruptions TRUMP ~[/QUOTE] Not sure if shutting mic is enough if Biden can still hear him across the stage. It's Biden that Trump wants to throw off his game. Biden needs earplugs.

Yes, it's great news that they are cutting off the mics but Trump will probably just shout into the room. At least he will look insane doing that, but Biden definitely needs to be prepared.

I mailed my ballot in person at the post office. I signed up for electronic notice that my ballot has been counted (should know by end of week). Keeping my fingers crossed that justice will be served and that the will of the people will show that TP is out and Biden/Harris will win back our country from the terrible reign of terror by current DC (GOP) admin. Gooooo Blue!

Here in Texas, there are tons of folks voting in the early voting phase. Dear Wife and I voted early at our polling station the other day. I have, for my part, not seen many of these Texans sporting tRump gear, which is good. From what I'm hearing, so very many of them are sick of TP and feel like they were deceived into voting for him in the first place. They are angry. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if ol' boy loses Texas and the entire election. Dear Wife has another theory. Due to TP's shenanigans and dirty dealings, he's going to be faced with a lot of legal problems the minute he steps out of office. Being the malignant narcissist that he is, Dear Wife thinks he'll either try to leave the country......or put a bullet in his head before he vacates the WH. One thing's for certain. When he steps out of that WH on 20 Jan 2021, he's going to be stepping out into a whole 'nuther fresh hell!!! We are both wringing our hands with glee at the thought of him being held to account for what he has done to this country. That turtle, "Moscow" Mitch McConnell, needs to go, too. Hopefully, Kentucky Democratic challenger Amy McGrath, a fellow US Marine, will kick his ass in the election. I know ol' Lindsay Graham is crapping his pants and he should be!!!! South Carolina seems to elect the worst, most racist, self serving old white men that they could dig up. Old Sen. Strom Thurmond, who was dragged in to the Senate chambers at nearly 100 years of age was always pontificating and condemning people of color and "immorality". Come to find out, the old geezer had quite a few illegitimate children running around. One was even biracial, as Ol' Strom had his way with a black woman who worked for his family. He sent money for her care until she was way into adulthood.......and did his best to cover it up. Yep, South Cackalacky (what we Georgians call South Carolina) definitely has had more than a few shitty people in their political system. I can't wait for election night!!! I know right where I'll be.......in my cozy recliner with a tub of buttered popcorn, watching the righties twitch and flap. I say "BRING IT". ![]() ![]() **NOTE: On the other hand, we must also be very guarded about what TP does when he realizes that he has really lost. He might just trigger Armageddon, in an attempt to wreak revenge on this nation for rejecting and "de-throning" him!!! ![]() ~Theo~ ![]()
