The only way to choose is to vote for the policies. If you like high taxes and less freedom, Biden is your guy. If you like lower taxes, more freedom, and strong economic growth, you should be checking the Trump box.
Pretty simple equation.

We have those too, so if I'm feeling lazy I can drop my ballot in one of those instead. It's so nice to have freedom of choice.

Those jerks should be summarily executed for their treason.

I'd seriously like to know who these people poll. I am active on a half dozen forums and just like last time Trump is killing Biden on all of them. Allegedly hitlery won the popular vote by a little over three million (of which over half were later removed) and I didn't get that then. These swing states in question were overwhelmingly favored to go blue last time but didn't.
This time Trump has record support among Latinos and black Americans. How can he not win even more votes this time?
The only way possible I see a loss this time is with the mail in voting. Already way too many stories of multiple ballots arriving that will be sure to mailed in.

Is it just me or did their own people put a muzzle on them?

question/points.

Why would anyone need to be told to:
(a) Register to vote?
(b) Vote?

This shit drives me nuts. Who the **** is undecided anyway?


This was beaten into my head back in high school.
It was also beaten into my head that I needed to register
for the draft. (Long gone, but I think my school even provided the forms. Now,
ain't that liberal?)

Voted in person, a little after 5:00. Total time truck to truck wasn't more than 15-20 minutes. I saw one person vote 'curbside' in their car, and it looked like I was the only one without a mask on, even though a mask is not required to vote.

The staff said when I arrived was the slowest all day. They had lines from the library snaking through the parking lot and all the way to the street yesterday and part of today.
