Liz Warren isn't she black? I mean if she could pass herself off as a blond headed native American, she could surly don a Afro wig and claim shes black.

In the best-case scenario, election officials hope to declare winners by the first Tuesday in August—six weeks after Election Day. It might take a lot longer than that.
No state has the time or the money to make sure vote-counting will go smoothly in November.
And just about every state is about to be hit with a massive surge of absentee ballots. Source: www.theatlantic.com...

I guess i don't understand why they can't rapidly build out a national website, where you can go to on the internet to vote. We did it for obama care, people can automatically be sent a confirmation to their email showing their results and those emails can be forwarded to state officials. The state officials can then have a program set up to read those emails, and input them into a database to verify those results. 100% no contact voting, 100% verification. If it included contact info on the registration, samples could also be verified.

Councilman Michael Jackson, councilman-elect Alex Mendez, and two other men, including councilman Shahin Khalique’s brother, were charged with criminal conduct involving mail-in ballots in the recent Paterson elections.
Jackson, 48, of Paterson; Mendez, 45, of Paterson; Shelim Khalique, 51, of Wayne; and Abu Razyen, 21, of Prospect Park, were charged with various voter fraud offenses.
Jackson and Khalique are both charged with fraud in casting mail-in vote, unauthorized possession of ballots, tampering with public records, and falsifying or tampering with records.
Mendez is charged with election fraud, fraud in casting mail-in vote, unauthorized possession of ballots, false registration or transfer, tampering with public records, and falsifying or tampering with records.
Razyen is charged with fraud in casting mail-in vote and unauthorized possession of ballots. Razyen and Shelim Khalique worked for Shahin Khalique’s campaign for the 2nd Ward seat.
“Today’s charges send a clear message: if you try to tamper with an election in New Jersey, we will find you and we will hold you accountable,” said New Jersey attorney general Gurbir Grewal. “We will not allow a small number of criminals to undermine the public’s confidence in our democratic process.”
Grewal’s office began investigating after being alerted by the U.S. Postal Inspection Service to hundreds of mail-in ballots being found in a mailbox in Paterson. More ballots were found in a mailbox in Haledon.

Democrats want to get as many ballots out to America as possible, by early September at the latest.
Lol, I know what you're trying to say... But you'd open yourself up to some on that phrasing.
Item 1. Barr/Durham are expected to announce criminal actions against top Obama-Biden administration officials after Labor Day.
It's been right around the corner for years. Spoiler alert, it doesn't happen, even after the likelihood of a second term. The fixation on Obama is precisely why it won't happen. He's just a figure head, one among many in our lives who've been complicit in some really bad deeds. But the fact people are selective in the ones the seethe over is why they all can be so blatant. They use each other as bars they can mold people's perception on where they fall above or below the last bar. It's all an elaborate dance.
What about Bush? We going to act like he didn't cause just as much detriment, and certainly an argument for more than Obama? That's why it's hard to take partisans seriously. They deserve trials just like any other American before I say they should serve time... But I have no shame in saying they don't deserve a lick of any honor. F*em both.
As per normal, I hope you don't feel I'm aiming that towards you. Merely my thoughts on the subjects. We all have the right to our opinions, and even to be wrong and learn. Hell, I may have to eat crow on this. I'm no prophet who knows the future. Just my take on a crazy "reality". Cheers.

I am saying use it as an alternative. People can still go and vote. The Majority of the USA has an email acct, and or access to some form of internet, whether it is cell, or computer. Additionally, you can expand voting to Libraries or internet cafe's. Not saying it won't have issues to work out, but leaving states to handle it doesn't work
