Rachel Maddow warned viewers on Monday that President Donald Trump plans to interfere with midterm election results, following the Supreme Court’s recent 7-2 ruling against his executive order instructing the US Postal Service (USPS) to block states from distributing and collecting mail-in ballots.
Trump’s order, which he signed last March, would’ve directed the USPS to refuse to deliver mail-in ballots to anyone whose information hadn’t been properly submitted to a new state citizenship list maintained by the federal government.
“Trump is counting on confusion, uncertainty, and a lack of confidence in the mail-in voting system to suppress voter turnout,” she said.
“Lesbian political pundit Rachel Maddow”
What does her sexual orientation have to do with her political point whatsoever? She’s saying that as a journalist not as a lesbian, what the fuck.
At first I agreed with you, then saw that the source is LGBTQ nation, so if she wasn’t a lesbian, it possibly wouldn’t be reported on by them. Her orientation is what ties this piece of news into the LGBTQ realm.
So if she wasn’t gay they wouldn’t report the news?
I’ll be voting in person, as I always do.
I urge everyone who possibly can to do the same. Yes, it’s inconvenient, yes, there will be long lines. But, your employer must, by law give you time off to vote. Just stand in line and look at your phone, or even take a folding chair.
Vote in person early if it’s an option. Our early in person voting starts today.
I go early every year and I’ve had to wait in line once, and even then the wait was only about 10 minutes for my area which is not considered rural.
TAKE your ballots to a box. DO NOT MAIL if possible.
That’s just not how elections work bruh. Its litterally logistically impossible to do that in sooooooooo many areas.
In Honolulu county, a county if a million people (practically) there are like _maybe_12 places to drop off your ballot. We do our election 💯 by mail and those drop off locations are just a back up. And it requires you sitting inkne for hours.
If you want to vote in person. Puh. Bruddah. Only get two place where can. Kapolei Hale and Honolulu Hale. And you gonna be in line for hours.
It is how it works. Take your mail-in ballot straight to your Election department. They will gladly accept it.
There simply isn’t the capacity. As a state we use mail in voting. States don’t all vote in the same manner.
For a period of ten (10) business days prior to and including each Election Day, voters may cast a ballot at a Voter Service Center. During this period, individuals not already registered to vote may register to vote and vote. In the City & County of Honolulu, Voter Service Centers are established at Honolulu Hale and Kapolei Hale. Traditional Election Day polling places will not be available.
There is no line for all 10 days. The line happens on Election Day. Do yourself a favor and vote prior to Election Day.
You’re free to live in a world of hypotheticals purely of your own creation, but don’t be surprised when reality comes to slap you I. The face because your so obscenely obnoxiously self obsessed in your considerations.
In reality, real people, not hypothetical people, are not going to make a huge effort to vote if it’s made to be too difficult. What actually happens is that even modest barriers being present, people just don’t bother.
Its quite hilarious how idiots take examples of what happens with real voters and real voter behavior, and then project it to mean being how the person individually behaves. Its a degree of stupidity you can only find on spaces like this.
Bro thats straight from the Honalulu County elections website.
Im very familiar with their process of accepting ballots. Your mail-in ballots should be received around Oct 16th. Fill it out and submit it to the Voter Service Centers or a Ballot Drop Box by Nov 3rd.
In reality, people wait until Nov 3rd to vote, but they dont have to wait until the 3rd. Go vote on:
- Oct 16 (Ballot Drop Box)
- Oct 17 (Ballot Drop Box)
- Oct 18 (Ballot Drop Box)
- Oct 19 (Ballot Drop Box)
- Oct 20 (Ballot Drop Box)
- Oct 21 (Ballot Drop Box)
- Oct 22 (Ballot Drop Box)
- Oct 23 (Ballot Drop Box)
- Oct 24 (Voter Service Center + Ballot Drop Box)
- Oct 25 (Voter Service Center + Ballot Drop Box)
- Oct 26 (Voter Service Center + Ballot Drop Box)
- Oct 27 (Voter Service Center + Ballot Drop Box)
- Oct 28 (Voter Service Center + Ballot Drop Box)
- Oct 29 (Voter Service Center + Ballot Drop Box)
- Oct 30 (Voter Service Center + Ballot Drop Box)
- Oct 31 (Voter Service Center + Ballot Drop Box)
- Nov 1 (Voter Service Center + Ballot Drop Box)
- Nov 2 (Voter Service Center + Ballot Drop Box)
- Nov 3 (lines begin here because people wait)
Plenty of days to beat the rush.
Just whatever you do, dont give it to USPS.
You truly have not one fucking iota of a clue about what the fuck you are talking about.
If people don’t mail in their ballots here, they simply won’t vote. We’re not built to do in person voting or even significant ballot drop off. You truly need to stfu about shit you don’t understand and stop spreading misinformation.
