We tried to extend the census deadline because of the pandemic, but were not allowed.

However, when the white supremacist party didn't get enough signatures to qualify for the Newsom recall, they went to a judge and asked for an extension because of the pandemic, and got it.

It seems every step of the way we are always at a disadvantage, and this has been going on for for over a decade.

were crying 'but her emails' to vote for Hillary because Trump would be horrible...he surpassed even my expectations of awfulness. We had a court pick in the wings and still, some on our side voted for Stein, stayed home, or even voted for Trump. Our party must begin to show loyalty or we will lose even though the country by the numbers agrees with us. Vote Democratic always...no exceptions.
