When I started voting in Kentucky back in 1976, you registered to vote by signing a card. Then on election day, you had to sign your name in the big voting book next to your registration signature. That was IT. No ID, no questions, no nothing. Every election, primary, special or general, same thing. Just sign your name in the box next to the last signature you made. Yep, looks the same. Anything else is BULLSHIT.

This is why the polls that so wrongly forecast the demise of Collins in the last election sucked. I think anyway, that it discouraged heavy D turnout there.

No I don't. I'm not in Pennsylvania.

I hope that someone in PA can do better.

Ta, Liz. I found out Monday that I have today off work in honor of Juneteenth. When we were on the Monday Zoom that spelled it out, at the end of the meeting, as always, we were asked if anyone had anything to add. I piped up and said Friday off was a great opportunity to vote early, and today for the first time in my life I did just that. Prior to today, I always voted on Election Day, which is only a holiday in my network for presidential election years. For the first time ever, I got to select candidates in ranked choice.

Or, he could be proposing something he knows has no chance of passing, just to make himself look good.

2 years seems like a pretty good run for a Stormtrooper?

Are you saying that I'm short for a Stormtrooper?
