The fact I don’t keep a DIT-like lawn? Or that I don’t measure snow as well as JSpin? I’d make a cabinet level position Snow Czar and have traveling around the country ensuring ski areas are correctly snow reporting. Instead of a summer White House, I’d have a winter White House in Valdez. I’d get government scientists straight to developing a simple, affordable home snowmaking machine. Snowmaking machines for everyone! I’m in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connecticut Appleman Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Hockey rinks are unique with respect to this virus. The air is cold and stays trapped above the ice and the glass dams the air up. Also in order to keep the ice in good shape, ventilation is not designed to exchange out the cold the air above the ice. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't matter to Congressional dems who is in White House really, when they were counting on a blue wave that didn’t happen . They won’t get anything they want to Biden to sign .Not getting the senate has devastated their moral and they even lost many seats in house (that they still control barely ) . This really isn’t hyperbole. So states that have a huge Revenue shortfall (NY/ ILL. and were counting on a blue wave stimulus to states now have to crawl back to Moscow Mitch in Senate . That old turtle looking fella is smiling ear to ear . Trump was close as I figured he would be as polls will never grasp the Trump support who would rather not interact with pollsters and face judgement , but in the end he fell short or will , the numbers in key states show this barely But still CLEARLY If you know what to look at. There is a reason Vegas is at 90% now for Biden . The guy does have a turtle looking chin. Everytime I see it I want to just smack it. I'm a republican to but I cant stand that guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Trump and his supporters begging to keep counting votes in some states while simultaneously trying to stop votes in other states from being counted is laugh out loud funny.

moneypitmike Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 It's essential that all--and only legal--votes be counted and then let the chips fall where they may. We'll see how it play out.

weathafella Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 The thing about mail ballots-they’ve been around forever. My first time voting for potus was 1968 by mail in absentee. In those days you (per memory) had to tell why you can’t show up in person but no one checked. Early voting is also a big boon to participation. My wife and I voted by mail but dropped if off at town hall since we as usual procrastinated and cut the mail window too close. Never miss voting even for only local elections. The rules of how to fill out and where to put your ballot by mail in MA requires you to carefully pay attention! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did the same for the 1st time this year. Not sure why it's such a hot issue. I would just make sure that it's stipulated that your ballot is postmarked no later then election day. However long it takes to count those votes after the election is irrelevant. Also irrelevant is how a State chooses to release that information to the media. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also irreverent is how a State chooses to release that information to the media. It is a hot issue because one party took advantage of the other voting options more than the other. Now the other party is butthurt. I like having options. We voted early because it was more efficient and took way less time. I could also do it on a weekend which made it easier for my schedule. If these options continue to be made available and if they are secure I will continue to exercise my right in the way I choose, even if no pandemic exists. Not sure why people have an issue with it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 There is nothing wrong with mail in ballots. The issue now is it’s not going Trumps way, so there is a problem. I’m sure if all the mail in ballots were coming up R, there wouldn’t be any kicking and screaming. He knew mail in ballots would be an issue for him though, which is why for months he tried to delegitimize the process. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Citizens shouldn’t be penalized for the ineptitude of the USPS... if your vote is dropped on a mailbox by Election Day, it should be counted. I don’t care if it takes 3 weeks to get there, that’s not the voters problem. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
