To help him , and he could care less if they die, or face long term health issues from it. He's cutting health care. He knowingly conned them about this virus, and even now is knowingly conning them about this economy. They're printing up trillions to prop up a failing market now , they know is about to take us from a recession into a trump depression. Guess who he'll have paying for this all, you. We're just the new "Mexico will pay for it" lie he's desperately promoting.

Several states are hiding the numbers. Schools in Florida, Texas, and Tennessee are hiding the numbers. I'm sure there are other states.

Think about that, hiding where infections are. It does absolutely zero good to talk to Trumpers, they are willing to die for him and for Wall Street. Trumpers will never ever change, we need to do our part and vote.

I am going to vote by mail, hand deliver my ballot to the county election office if necessary. Not talked about enough; voting by paper ballots can't be flipped liked voting machine votes can. Voting by mail is actually less prone to fraud, IMO.

And it is fed into a machine for reading. So, they have the paper copy as well as the scanned record.

And it’s done right in front of you, you put the ballot into the machine slot and wait to see the verification on the lcd screen.

I am going to my local County board of election main office to attend the first day of early inperson voting. Can’t wait!!

Our very rural area is doing well with COVID and I will probably face zero waiting so I thought it was better than adding to the overworked USPS.

They aren't a majority but they are a significant minority which is enough to get power in the system we have.
