There are very few apples left on the trees at the orchard, and even those are way past their prime. Nevertheless quite beautiful, I think:
11,183 active eligible voters in Dixie county, Florida, tho that may be up as of 10/25/24 – w/ 2,214 DEM, 7,040 REP, and 1,964 Others. As a NPA voter I fall under Other. Moved here in 2009 and there is a big shift in parties since then – had lots of “Blue Dog” DEMs back then.
If Trump allows Russia to take Ukraine then I’ll be voting against the Republican party—and their candidates in the future.
Early voted this morning – having decided to vote against the Democratic party candidates. Just filled in the REP oval area.
Had six Amendments – voted for #3 to “Legalizes recreational marijuana”.
May vote by mail next time…
How on earth did we get to a point where people like this have power?

So another one has come out of the woodwork, accusing Trump of groping her at a beauty pagent. Are we going to get one a day now?

Is brutal!
Well worth 2 minutes and 7 seconds of your time. It’s a black, mostly female audience in Philadelphia on MSNBC and they accurately and devastatingly outline Harris’ flaws.
Trump might get 538 electoral college votes.

Too much fun, too much hilarity. For god’s sake, don’t watch this thing.
Our friends in the mountains had a whole-house generator running on natural gas for a week and a half before the power came back on. It kept the fridge and freezer going, and more importantly, it kept the sump pump going. They had no damage. No thanks, I don’t want all-electric.

It seems like VA ought to say fine, we’ll leave them on the rolls as provisional voters and hold their ballots until their eligibility can be individually determined. So let ’em vote, but don’t count the vote until election authorities are convinced they’re eligible to vote.
