I wish there were more than Lou hammering on this, but I'm grateful for him.

11. It's almost too big to grasp.... and I'm a survivor of the Vietnam era!
We grieved for our country so much then... it's unimaginable now.

Thanks so much for understanding, and for posting this. How long (approx) did the segment run?

16. That's about what his others have been... wish it was more, but
he packs a punch in a short time. Kinda wished he'd had more on this one.

19. From your lips to the ears of the goddess!
Can you imagine a "Special" featuring both Lou and Keith, on election fraud?

Oh, be still my heart.... ~~chortle~~

Unfortunately, the ones who really HAVE to see and understand this is our Dem leadership, and they are shielding themselves from this quite well. I think we grassroots folk have done about what we can do at this point. :(

23. Yeah, he's a totally different category. What's great is the
demographic he attracts. An age group that is so important to understand what is really happening.

I'm very grateful for Helen Thomas, and perplexed why there aren't young women following in her footsteps. We're so very lucky to have her as a role model!!

10. It was crazy here in Bethesda/ChCh. Some voted electronically...
others had to use paper and still others had to use Spanish language ballots even though they don't speak Spanish.

13. Thanks for the report!! Do you have any idea what safeguards
are in place for the paper ballots? I'm really curious, since it wasn't really expected. Are there many people to sign up to monitor the counting?

That is really bizzzzare about the Spanish! Geeeeeeez! :crazy:
