I had the loveliest time in my sh*thole city voting line this morning.

The older man in front of me was nice and social and put out his hand to shake mine and initiated a chat. We talked about our neighborhood and where we went to school, etc. and no politics.

I have no clue about his political affiliation. It was a nice experience and I will probably see this man again in my neighborhood and wave "Hello" and we might chat again.

All in all, it made me realize that getting out there to vote is a good thing (even when you know what's up).

Voting is social! (That's one of the reasons why They wanted you to mail it in.)

Same here. In my voting line I saw the usual nasty anxious karens. Best way to get under their skin is to smile brightly and greet the crowd. Just because they are unhappy and live in fear doesn't mean we have to. To borrow a phrase from George Costanza on Seinfeld "Greetings and salutations!" ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜

Never really thought of it that way. Sure and maybe the biggest reason for 'mail in' is that it opens the way to lying, cheating, stealing ... voter fraud to the moon. But you are absolutely right. Voting is social ... and every thing the Demonic Cretins do is aimed at death, destruction ... and isolating. Yes, anti-social isolating.

In my town (CA) we are mailed a ballot. You have the option of mailing it, but it seems like most people prefer to go hand deliver the ballots to one of numerous drop boxes or to our local administrative center, where you actually could, if you wanted to, vote in person. But it's not the same as it used to be, sadly. It was always a fun experience to go vote in person. The polling stations were always manned by volunteers, usually the more elderly of the town. It was a jovial place to be, people who chit chat outside, everyone felt like they were participating. I miss that. Thank you for eliminating most in-person voting, you stupid Democrats of California.

I voted this morning in-person in my CA town. Watched them write "Surrendered" all over my mail in ballot, then got a fresh one to fill out.

I am an in-person voting advocate too, and yes, it is social. It is a great feeling, and nice occasion to chat with strangers (LOL I've never seen anyone I knew at a polling place...gotta lotta mail-in acquaintances here).

Yeah, my town and most of the county is pretty freaking blue/lockdown-happy/scared/mainstream-media-believeing. I'd never written to supervisors before, or people running for office. But over the last 2 years now, I've quizzed them on mandates, emergency powers, lockdowns, masking, and school closures.

Sadly, even if the election here is 100% legit, I don't think a lot of (any of? lol) my choices will get into office.

And in Virginia my pet peeve is how lackluster the Republicans were in confronting this massive theft of our property, the vote. Near Zero push back? And I ask the C & C readers ... WHY?

I figure that it is likely that Trump carried Virginia in the Great Banana Republic Election of 2020. Why? Because I saw the same pattern in Northern Virginia of the Late Night Lamplight Burn in the Northern Virginia precincts.

I've never voted in person before, but since we're in Kentucky now and our vote might matter, I was so excited to experience it for the first time here!!

Voting in MO at least in rural areas is doing great. We had so many absentee ballots that the Democrat election worker and I alphabetized almost 1,000 sealed absentee envelopes last Fri. to expedite the opening and counting on election day. That is almost as many as we had in 2020. Almost no one is wearing masks here. None at my polling place. That is not a good sign on machines down especially in Democrat run places like Maricopa.

"For stores of more than 50,000 square feet:

Limit the number of customers in the store at one time (excluding employees) to 4 people per 1,000 square feet of customer floor space. The amount of customer floor space must be calculated to exclude store areas that are closed under subprovision (2) of this subsection.

Close areas of the storeโ€”by cordoning them off, placing signs in aisles, posting prominent signs, removing goods from shelves, or other appropriate meansโ€”that are dedicated to the following classes of goods:

Carpet or flooring.

Furniture.

Garden centers and plant nurseries.

Paint."

OK, the whole lock down BS. Just the usual unconstitutional executive action. If anyone thinks these "mandates" were constitutional just because they did them, they're an idiot.

Please always just read the proposals actual verbiage. Ignore those fake flyers spreading lies.

Expand full comment

Even the verbiage is confusing. Oregonians canโ€™t decipher anything about the proposals and end up voting wrongly because of that. In Florida they even word things crappy. On purpose. Although it is like night and day compared to how bad Oregon is. I did notice a proposal in our county that sounded great until you dug a little deeper and noticed they stuffed a bunch of unwanted groups on the list which will raise our taxes to accommodate. It was disheartening. I wanted to say yes to first responders, but no to the others they snuck in there. Then what do you do. ๐Ÿ˜ž I did a lot of digging to find out what groups were who, and what effect it has on citizens. Voting requires a lot of research to combat their pork and word salads to decipher what you are actually voting for or against. They are confusing on purpose! Itโ€™s infuriating.

We have several in KS today and I was reading somewhere that the grade level required to read and understand either one was 17+--I'm guessing that is graduate level plus to understand.

Plus they obfuscate things by writing the proposals in a very unclear and confusing way. They always give the proposal a nice sounding name to confuse those who don't read the whole proposal, and such people usually think they are voting for something entirely different.

Iโ€™m in Florida. I voted NO on constitutional amendment # 3 that would give an additional homestead exemption of $50,000 because it included teachers. I know several teachers and theyโ€™re all women married to men who make good incomes.

Expand full comment

I'm voting later today and I too am going to vote no. I don't want more "special" classes of citizens. People should not be taxed or untaxed because of their job.

Expand full comment

Ditto in PC FL. In principle, it is always wrong to treat different segments of the population with different tax policies. Always think first, "Is this right or wrong based on principle?" There are other ways to show appreciation for first responders than a discriminatory tax policy. All taxpayers should be treated the same. If the state can afford a tax break, give everyone some more tax exemption. Now, if we need more first responders, offer more in salary and pay them what they are worth. Tax law should treat all the same.

Expand full comment

That is spot on too! Thank you. I kept thinking I want to support the first responders, but how is that fair to other careers that are just as difficult and do not pay much? Why is one preferred over the other. So should we give an exemption to all plumbers? Iโ€™m sure they would love it. But then what about the electricians and garbage collectors? Preferential treatment is not what we should be aiming for. They knew how much they got paid when they chose that career, as in every line of work. Thanks for helping to clarify that thought process!

Expand full comment

Yes, and it has been pointed by others many, many times that tax exemptions are a huge tell that taxes are way too high and beyond a constitutionally necessary rate of exaction. Also, offering exemption is really in some sense vote buying. And vote buying is a form of larceny and a breech of the trustee responsibility of legislative representatives.

And when one begins to confront elected officials of legislative bodies with this line of argument, they suddenly are at a loss as to what to say. And such officials are reluctant to admit the constitutions are suspended (even if they knew it) because then there would be even a lot more s'plaining to do.

Expand full comment

The American constitutions (all suspended) were designed to uphold the God-conferred Liberties, among them property held under equal protection of the Law. Distributing wealth through the ballot box by legislative fiat is looting. That is, looting by stealing from Paul in order to give a benefit to Peter. Or simply put ... Paul's pocket is looted, but Peter gets a nice golden goose egg.

Voting for special exemptions by stealing language wrapping up in nice pretty fraud words is lying. And such votes are votes against the constitutions by the stated purposes of the same ... and also are votes against the maintenance of a non-stealing moral order.

Soundly reasoned. You said it much better than I did.

Expand full comment

That was exactly my problem with it. And social workers.

Expand full comment

So I have a question about #2. I originally thought why would we abolish the Constitution Revision Commission? It sounds good at face value which they bank on voters doing (no research). Then I looked up what it was! And then it made sense. If I read this right, this is the same group responsible for adding teachers and social workers to the Homestead for first responders proposal. A group of partisan hacks disguised as constitutional authority to help the people add amendments to the state constitution! They sneak in the pork! Republicans were not for this group. Most of them voted against its formation. So now I am voting YES to abolish them rather than the NO I was going to vote before doing the research.

Might I ask (since we are new to Florida) if you know am I missing anything here?

No, youโ€™re not missing anything. Vote YES to abolish!

Should be interesting seeing the results tomorrow/next week/whenever. _Really_ hoping we don't see more post-midnight bumps in ballot counts like we did in 2020. I know a lot of people are fed up with the economy and supply chains and such right now. Sadly, in my little area in TX I see far too many "Beto" signs for my comfort. I have no idea what exactly people think they'd get with him in charge. That includes a couple of my neighbors who I'd normally think would not line up with his "values". I don't expect him to win, but with the way Abbott behaved the last couple of years I can see that people would be ticked at him. Voting for Beto isn't the answer, but I can definitely understand wanting someone else. :/

Regardless, I'm going to remember that God is still in charge. Local/National politics don't change that.

I also appreciate the time you spend on these daily summaries. It's good to see a lot of the news and opinions that aren't "fit to print" in our mainstream media outlets. :)

I saw that post midnight bump in the results in 2021 for a couple of counties in NJ during the governor's race. For a goodly number of hours it looked like Murphy was going to lose and then in the wee hours in two democrat stronghold counties the numbers spiked.

That was outright larceny.

How did that Goldman Sachs Nursing Home Murderer have a chance?

But the stumblebum he "ran" against- Jack Shitarelli- was happy to take adive anyway .

Good luck on the outcome of your election today. We are watching with much interest from Canada, wishing we had our own midterms here.

My heart breaks for all of you in Canada. I followed closely the truckers' convoy and even saw the beating of the Rebel News journalist and the people who were run over by horses when Trudeau's goons cracked down. I wished I could go into the cafe which was targeted and eventually shut down because its owners dared to stay open.

Another vax and election denier here! I am so very glad that my husband and I questioned and did research and said no to the shots. I don't intend to ever take any kind of vaccine again.

Same. I did my research. By summer 2020 I knew the mRNA would be a big no. And lockdowns were evil.

In fact, it looks like any and all vaccines are useless at best, for humans and pets. Still researching tho.

Please watched "Vaxxed" the documentary with the CDC whistleblower on childhood vaccines. It is well done and well supported with the whistleblowers documents. It broke my heart and made me realize that I would never take another vax of any kind for the rest of my life!

Expand full comment

It was called LOGIC.

Critical Thinking has a different meaning and was never included in a school curriculum.

Recently an attempt to add a logic requirement was added to a school district in Alaska.

Sadly, the school board voted it down!

Imho a good solid education (of old) creates critical thinkers.

Dumbed down education (Common Core, CRT, SEL,revisionist history, etc.) creates robotons who question nothing but follow dutifully.

I vaguely recall some trolls facing legal charges for intentionally posting the wrong (too-late) voting date in a previous election (2016, I think?). It seems like Alachua Countyโ€™s Future bogus text could fall into the same category of intentionally misleading the public about voting and could thus be subject to legal action. What do you think, Jeff?

Regarding your economic advice during an inflationary cycle, this is the first time Iโ€™ve ever been glad we donโ€™t have any savings and have invested in stockpiling cat food instead! ๐Ÿ˜น

Hereโ€™s a list of the FDA user fees for 2023 vs. 2022:

โ€ข https://www.raps.org/news-and-articles/news-articles/2022/10/fda-posts-fy2023-user-fee-tables

Youโ€™ll see the application fee has increased from $3,117,218 to $3,242,026 (a 4% increase) for 2023, so youโ€™ll need to multiply that by every application (Pfizer, Moderna, etc.) and figure out how many billions of dollars weโ€™ll need to buy the FDA ;-)

Actually, I have a better idea: letโ€™s just abolish it and reclaim our tax-extorted dollars.

I fear that many of these elections will take weeks to call. I remember the good old days when you voted on Election Day and the results were given that night. These mail-in ballots should be abandoned except for the ๏ฟผ bedridden, infirmed ๏ฟผand the military. AND maybe if you can prove you will be out of town. Also IMHO it should be either a morning/afternoon off from work so you can do your civic duty. Now thatโ€™s AMERICAN!

Expand full comment

ABSENTEE ballots YES;early voting & mail-in NO.

Absentee has more accountability & accommodates genuine needs of certain voters.

Mail-ins are the Wild West voting

Expand full comment

what's the difference between absentee and mail-in voting?

Expand full comment

With mail in, everyone gets a ballot to mail back. With absentee, if a person is not going be able to get to the polling station on Election Day, they can request a ballot in advance.

In MO, our absentee ballots have to be notarized.

Expand full comment

I'll never figure this out...in past elections (up until the 1990's), all elections were manually tabulated or on paper. We got final results almost always before midnight...

Today, with all the "modern" technology, we can't seem to get results for days...

I know what you're thinking...it takes days to manipulate the votes...but seriously, bring back paper ballots and voter ID!

Don't know why I believe it but I think electronic voting came in with daddy Bush and has favored establishment candidates since.

Barron's used to be a great read...30-40 years ago. Like so many other things, it has become infested with liberalism or socialism or stupidity.

...Struggling presidency"...maybe, but fantastic dictatorship if you are into that sort of thing.

Election cheating? I finally figured out why major elections are so close to Halloween. As the dead come out of their graves to spook the living, there are the democrats to make sure they fill out an absentee ballot...with only one party choice of course.
