Reply To: I voted today. Tell me about the fraud.

Each county sets their own hours. At this location it was until 5 PM. At other locations in the county it was until 7 PM, which is when voting normally ends on Election Day.

And to be clear, the two absentee ballots were mine and my wife’s. My wife’s ballot was properly filled out, signed and sealed. I hand-delivered it rather than relying on the mail. I brought my ballot in it’s original mailing envelope unopened, and had the clerk cancel it so I could vote in person. This is done in 3 ways: they entered it on the computer, then they enter it on a ledger, then they write it on the ballot itself, so there’s no way someone else (or me) can use the absentee ballot. Then I voted regularly.

My point is that those claiming fraud would use my story as an example of fraud, like I voted 3 times. They sent around photos of people putting multiple envelopes in the drop box, but not saying that they are different ballots by different people, like a guy bringing for himself and his wife or parents. Half a story is no story. Be more skeptical of those who want to take away the democracy. Look for the full story. Look at why the courts threw out 60 cases. Look at why Republican governors who carried water for Trump all through the Plague can’t find a way to help him now.
