But first, the city will hold a general election. After that? Stay tuned. I don't get it. I vote absentee in Ohio every year. The ballot is in an envelope that has my info printed on it, that I also have to fill out and sign. The Ohio SoS website has a tracker so I can check to make sure the county Board of Elections has my ballot and it's slated to be counted on election day. They don't just open the box and count everything shoved in. I figure if Ohio does this then at least the East Coast has been doing it longer.

SuperSpreader Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Texas voters pass property tax cuts and infrastructure spending, but … WWW.TEXASTRIBUNE.ORG Voters are poised to pass at least 13 of 14 propositions, according to early returns that began coming in on Tuesday. The measures include new funds for state parks, water infrastructure and broadban… Quote Property tax cuts, a raise for retired teachers and billions in investments in infrastructure, research, tech and energy appeared headed for passage as voters showed their approval for more than a dozen constitutional amendments, according to early returns on Tuesday night. But a measure to allow judges to retire at a later age appeared to be going down, with barely over one-third of Texans voting for it. And a few others — including a property tax exemption for biomedical inventory and equipment from property taxes, were passing by only slim margins.

Tuesday's elections will be 'fascinating test' of whether Biden's sinking popularity 'depressed' Dem vote WWW.FOXNEWS.COM Former GOP Speaker Newt Gingrich says that Tuesday's elections will serve as a "fascinating test" of whether President Biden's low approval ratings sink Democrat turnout. Quote "This is a fascinating test, first of all because Gov. Youngkin has done a great job, he's at about 57% approval, so he's bringing a lot to the table, and he has raised a fair amount of money," Gingrich said. "The Democrats understand if they lose badly tonight in Virginia that's a terrible omen for 2024 and will increase the demand that Biden quit running for reelection."

I was a loan processor back when Obama was running for re-election....always fox news..always loud AF. If I had to talk to the same person more than once and I knew they had to bring up Obama (because he was why I needed a paystub or bank statement...obviously) I'd call them at the end of my day and tell them I was getting ready to meet my family at church but wanted to call them before I left to try and get them off the phone ASAP. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
