Probably about 50%, like always.
.No one is required to vote . But if they choose not to they are accounted for. Sending out unsolicited ballots makes them the responsibility of the state to account for . Note I did not get into obvious problems like how easy it is to harvest unaccounted for ballots and make sure they end up at the precincts with a vote for your favorite candidate .
I'm sure you mean something by this but I have no idea what.Quote:

Danger ! New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says she is delaying the country's parliamentary election by four weeks to October 17 !!!

Not a problem as it might be in the US. Elections are not held on a fixed date and there is some latitude for the government of the day, four weeks in the middle of a CV event is no more than a statistical error. Please remember we in the southern climes are not given to dicatorial regimes oftenQuote:

I'll be glad when you guys actually prove some of these sky is falling theories instead of the steady gloom and doom stirred up by the dufus and his sycophants. Better yet how to fix stuff. LOL Tom most states have already expanded absentee and mail in voting because of the virus, and they aren't all democratic controlled states either.Quote:

It is all a distraction from the real agenda
The suppression will be the apx 20% of the voters who's ballots are disqualified for various reasons .(that seems to be the standard ,for the mail in ballots that are actually accounted for . Carolyn Maloney's opponent ,Suraj Patel was robbed .After a 3 week +delay in announcing the result ;Manhattan Judge Analisa Torres ordered all ballots with missing postmarks that were received two days after the June 23 primary be counted. So it is still undecided .Quote:

What about all those in-person voting locations that have been removed so that poc will have to stand in line for eight or more hours?Quote:

so you admit demonrats interfere with the electoral process
I admit both sides engage in political shenanigans to gain and keep power and influence. I think we find that in every government on Earth. Some more than others.
Yes but you guys have reduced it to an art formQuote:

This very day he went so far to say the if he loses the election, it will have been de facto rigged. If he wins, it will be legitimate. That is an unbelievable statement from a sitting US president.
He also said the US people owe him four more years (AFTER he finishes the next four years that he plans to win in November 2020) because of all the controversy around his 2016 win.Quote:

poor little Donald, the big bad bullies were against him
More crazy distraction talk as everyday brings out the dufus's glaring incompetence and lies. While repubs put together their own convention and dems are in the middle of theirs the dufus appointed postmaster is stopping his destruction of the post office amid the uproar and hearings into his handling of USPS.
And will joyboy DeJoy replace what he removed?Quote:

I suppose yanking chains is better than talking about the repub senates intell report on Russia, or the post office debacle, or no relief deal for main street and states, or the incompetence in covid response.
Trouble is, he's totally serious. He has no concept of how to chain-yank.Quote:

If he was an instrument of collusion with Russia then why was it old business in Ukraine that got him in trouble with Mueller ;and the charges were mostly tax and banking related ? The Senate Intel Committee has become a useless group led by Goober Graham .Quote:

Nice spin, or a blatant dismissal of facts, since I doubt you've read it, just like you didn't read the Mueller Report, and Burr was the Chairman at the time not Goober. Rubio took over after Burr left for the repubs.
https://www.intelligence.senate.gov/...n-interference
It's Vol 5 of a series.
Did you read the Mueller report? No. Did you read the Senate report? No. Yet, you come here and claim they're both "hoaxes". Do you read Trump's tweets? Yes. That's where you get your info - right from the fevered brain of a mental case.Quote:

Even worse, Trump is willing to collude again with the Russians in the 2020 election and the Republicans - FULLY AWARE OF THIS FACT - will do nothing to prevent it.
Republican Rubio has stated that "there is no evidence of collusion". Rubio is the acting chairman of the Senate committee. Ignoring the tons of evidence in the Senate report shows exactly how dangerous the Repubs will be in 2020.
Yes folks another dufus associate is facing charges!

If you surround yourself with crooks and criminals what are the chances that you're one too? just asking.
