Excellent. I love these republican superspreader events. I wonder how many of the afflicted will be too sick to vote.
He really is the most irresponsible asshole on the planet.
It's you deeks who needs to get out of the Trump bubble. Open your eyes and look around. Look at the state of the U.S. under Trump. Look at the international standing of the U.S. under Trump.
It's lucky you weren't around in Hitlers time, you'd be marching around giving the Hitler salute and telling us all to join in.
What a feeble minded sheep you are. (with the wool pulled firmly over your eyes)

I stood in line in the hot sun for 1 1/2 hours to vote Tuesday. One poor woman fainted it was so hot. Someone came out with a wheelchair and offered to take her inside to the air conditioner but she refused to give up her place in line.
I recently drove by a low income area in Florida, all double wide trailers and old pickup trucks , every other trailer had a trump/ pence sign, many has huge trump flags.
It is incredible, that these people think that a New York real estate developer, has their back. even knows what their back looks like. Or has anything other than disdain for them.
Another thing I find incredible is that they all talk about personal responsibility, yet they blame all their problems on others.
They don't want government being involved in their personal lives, unless it is issues they care for (abortion, religion etc.)
They hate "socialism" and want the damn "socialists" to keep their hands off their social security and food stamps LOL
The sooner you fall behind, the more time you have to catch up.
^ I agree. So stupid it hurts. You don’t see nice new cars sporting Trump stickers or waving flags. Instead, they are old beat up pickups with more tires than the driver has teeth.
Democratic enthusiasm propels early voting
WASHINGTON - With less than three weeks to go before Nov. 3, more than 14 million Americans have voted in the fall election, reflecting an extraordinary level of participation despite barriers erected by the coronavirus pandemic - and setting a trajectory that could result in the majority of voters casting ballots before Election Day for the first time in U.S. history.
In Georgia this week, voters waited as long as 11 hours to cast their ballots on the first day of early voting. In North Carolina, nearly 1 in 5 of roughly 500,000 who have returned mail ballots did not vote in the last presidential election. In Michigan, more than 1 million people - roughly one-fourth of total turnout in 2016 - have voted.
The picture is so stark that election officials across the country are reporting record early turnout, much of it in person, meaning that more results could be available on election night than previously thought.
Much of the early voting appears to be driven by heightened enthusiasm among Democrats. Of the roughly 3.5 million voters who have cast ballots in six states that provide partisan breakdowns, registered Democrats outnumber Republicans by roughly 2 to 1, according to a Washington Post analysis of data in Florida, Kentucky, Iowa, Maine, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.
Those who have voted include disproportionate numbers of Black voters and women, according to state data - groups that favor former vice president Joe Biden over President Donald Trump in recent polls.
Dozens of voters who have shown up on their states' first day of early voting over the past several weeks have described a desire to cast their ballots at the first possible moment as a statement against the president.

Quinnipiac poll yesterday!
GEORGIA: Biden 51%, Trump 44%
GEORGIA SENATE: Ossoff 51%, Perdue 45%
GEORGIA SENATE: Warnock 41%, Collins 22%, Loeffler 20%
Georgia (GA) Poll - October 14, 2020 - Biden Is Ahead In Georgia, But | Quinnipiac University Connecticut
Loeffler has spent so much money to keep her appointed senate seat. Good to see her trailing behind Collins with Warnock in the lead.
The GOP ploy to undermine the election continues. The latest election controversy cropped up this week in California, where Republicans installed dozens of unauthorized ballot dropboxes that state officials say are illegal. The dropbox debacle, triggered by California Republicans who appeared to violate state laws, immediately injected new chaos into the frenzied and unprecedented 2020 election process.
The California Republican Party said Wednesday it will not comply with the state's cease-and-desist order over unofficial ballot drop boxes placed in at least four counties, escalating a brewing political showdown ahead of the November election.

Down the road.
There’s a guy I know who owns a nice size ranch. I’ve known him for years and his wife a little longer. 4 years ago they had a large Trump/Pence/Make America Great Again sign (at least 15 feet long) out in front of the main entrance to the ranch.
This year, no sign.
Was visiting a few Floridians down south this past weekend.
First with a woman I used to work with. A republican supporter her entire life. She was cussing trump and told me she wasn’t voting for him. I know her son. We grew up in the same neighborhood and he has been a republican supporter his entire life. She told me he thought trump’s performance at the first debate was embarrassing.
Last was with a couple I’ve known over 30 years. He, for the most part is a republican supporter. She’s a democratic supporter. Both were expressing displeasure with trump and will not be voting for him.

Very nice.
For giggles. Find a heavily dominated republican precinct and stand in line (on a cooler day). Maybe gather a few friends together (who have already voted) to take a few extra places.
Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
Not nearly as demented as you, though.
Madness.
As I mentioned previously, we voted here the other day - zero people in line yet another record day in early voting by pols closing tomorrow.
Now, of course one can't campare the populations of the US and NZ - but here's the difference, both major parties have worked hard to open up as many voting locations as possible to allow the easiest access possible.
THAT is the difference.
