Dear California Voter,

All California voters will be sent a vote-by-mail ballot with a prepaid postage return envelope for the November 3, 2020 General Election.

All voters can now get critical updates on their ballots through California’s official “Where’s My Ballot?” tracking tool. Signing up takes less than three minutes!

You can select to receive notifications on the status of your vote-by-mail ballot by text (SMS), email, or voice call, including alerts if there are any issues with your ballot and instructions for how to correct them to make sure your vote is counted.

Don't miss out on the opportunity to track your ballot every step of the way!
How the hell are the people displaced by the fires going to vote?

You are supposed to be able to track ballot sent, ballot received, and ballot counted. I think I’ll sign up for tracking to see if I’ve already voted for Biden and all tax increases!

How the hell are the people displaced by the fires going to vote without undue burden?

They’ll count their missing votes as Biden votes. With 0% of the precincts reporting, CNN has already declared Biden the winner in California.

no need to take Trump's advice and violate Federal Law by mailing AND voting in person to make sure your vote got counted...at least in MA mail ins can be tracked.

Just did mine, left myself plenty of time in case it did not get processed.
Easy enough for almost anyone to do...

per Newsweek, as of a month ago...

As a large number of Americans prepare to vote by mail in November's presidential election, the majority of states have developed systems where residents can track the status of their ballot.

Currently, 39 states and Washington, D.C., have the capability to track mail-in ballots, according to an interactive map published and updated by NBC News. These states are: Alabama; Alaska; Arkansas; Arizona; California; Colorado; Delaware; Georgia; Florida; Idaho; Iowa; Kansas; Kentucky; Louisiana; Maryland; Massachusetts; Michigan; Minnesota; Montana; Nebraska; Nevada; New Hampshire; New Jersey; North Dakota; Ohio; Oklahoma; Oregon; Pennsylvania; Rhode Island; South Carolina; South Dakota; Tennessee; Texas; Utah; Vermont; Virginia; Washington; West Virginia and Wyoming.

The key fact is:
Trump told his supporters to go to their polling place and check if their mail-in vote had been counted, “if not, vote, which is every American’s right” — then suggested that if their mail-in ballot arrives after they’ve voted, “it won’t count because your vote’s already been cast and tabulated.”

I can understand that, I don't trust mail in voting either. How do you know your vote was counted and didn't end up in a dumpster?


No. What he said was vote by mail then go to the polling place and vote again and if the system is as good as they say it is one won't count. The problem with that is it's illegal. It's not a "Hey! Vote twice and let's see if they catch it!" system. Voting twice is illegal. There's no wiggle room.

The best way to test the flaws and gaps in various counties’ elections systems is mass mail-in ballots being mandated but only giving the elections offices a few months to get ready. Vote early, vote often!

"So let them send it in and let them go vote, and if their system's as good as they say it is, then obviously they won't be able to vote. If it isn't tabulated, they'll be able to vote,"

"If it's as good as they say it is, then obviously they won't be able to vote. If it isn't tabulated, they'll be able to vote. So that's the way it is. And that's what they should do,"

If you are serious about displaced persons voting, you can chg. address within 15 days of election, then go vote in person. I am sure the Post Office is holding mail for burned out residences to pick up in person.

The quotes are in reference to North Carolina. Do NC mail-in voters have the ability to check if their vote has been tabulated? NCVOTER.ORG says yes, they use ballottrax so a voter can see status of your ballot, whether or not it was received and accepted. If the system works as they say, then you shouldn't then be able to vote in person and have your vote accepted and counted twice. The question being put forth then is the system trustworthy? A fair question.

There are other serious concerns with mail-in voting itself. In the Democratic Primary One in New York City one out of four mail-in ballots were disqualified for arriving late, lacking a postmark or failing to include a voter’s signature, or other defects.
403,103 mail-in ballots were received, 84,108 ballots were not counted or invalidated.

Also there have been shenanigans pulled by outside political groups.

How many ways then can mass mail-in voting potentially cause chaos in a Presidential election?

we have developed, updated, trusted and accepted our election/voting processes for the past 240 plus years...even the closest elections have been accepted, although some did require judicial review and numerous re-counts...

nobody expected Trump to win in 2016 - even he and his campaign were shocked...

people cried but did not threaten an armed insurrection...

if he wins again...same...

if he loses..........

Sophistry.

"So let them send it in and let them go vote..." Do both, see what happens. Illegal. He didn't say mail in your vote and then check the app to see if it was counted and if not then go vote in person. He said do both, see what happens.


Tell yourself whatever you like. It doesn't change what he said. You create your own reality. People don't believe what they see and hear. They see and hear what they already believe. You've created a reality for yourself no different than those other idiots running around burning stuff thinking they're justified.

North Carolina was not among the 39 states in my post.
It is still among the 11 stoopid states.

anyone sending past due date or not properly signing is also stoopid.
Sucks to be them.

X, he does that all the time... spits out some sociopathic mind games, then comes out later and says it was a joke... or he didn't mean it that way...

Dude... trust me, he means it every fkin time... not only is the original message calculated, but so is the clean up response.

And even if it was unintentional... it doesn't change the fact he asked his supporters to commit a felony on his behalf... ignorance is not an excuse for the potus asking half the country to commit a felony.

There's a difference between an error and an incredibly stupid comment or commentary that suggests people commit a felony or inject themselves with clorox or disinfectants.

How could mass mail-in voting ever go wrong? Certainly things will work like a Swiss watch, even dead people and illegals will not be able to penetrate. After all everything gubment has done in the past has worked out exactly as they planned and promised. Right?

I'm sorry, I thought we were talking about what Trump said. Now we're debating mail in votes. Not the fact that he encouraged everyone to commit a felony? It's interesting to watch your reality shift to suit your needs.

WTF! We were talking about mail-in votes because that is what Trump was talking about.
Trump may not always be the most adept at putting words together in sentence on the fly but unlike you I could understand what he was driving at. For you it wasn't in your interest to understand what he was driving at, so you engage in surgically analysing every word looking for a gotcha. Are you sure you're not an operative for the MSM, maybe CNN or MSNBC?

I can see why you're confused. Every time someone holds up a mirror so you can see yourself you turn away. That way, you don't have to examine yourself to closely. We, that's you and I, were involved in a conversation about what Trump said. We were not debating the merits of mail in voting. We were discussing what Trump SAID. What he said was vote twice, see what happens. That's what he was driving at. Period. He wasn't being philosophical. Is truth beauty? Is beauty truth? That you can interpret 'til the cows come home. We, that's us again, were discussing what the President of the United States said about voting during an election for the office of the President of the United States. I expect more from the "Leader of the Free World" than "Hey everybody, go vote twice for me and let's see what happens!" (wink wink nudge nudge) just kidding! Ha ha! You all know what I mean? Right? (Wink)

You've sunk so much of your ego into supporting this guy it's impossible for you to stop and say "Woah! Slow down their good buddy! I'm your guy but, that was out of line!" This TDS disease everyone keeps talking about? You've got it too. Your symptoms are just different.


P.S. Just so you don't wind up spinning your wheels on the whole "Is truth beauty? Is beauty truth?" thing the answer is no. They're both subjective. You can't afford to spin your wheels on something like that. There's not much tread left on your tires.

He said to go to the voting place and see if your absentee ballot had been counted and if you were eligible to vote.. that way if it had been lost your vote would still count... unlike the 1,000 people, who got caught, who purposely voted twice as the OP states... but ya, the news kinda fails to mention it...Mellow
