After the Bay of Pigs disaster, JFK said 'victory has a thousand fathers, but failure is an orphan.' He accepted responsibility for the failure. That's called leadership. The former guy never accepts responsibility but always blames others. That's the opposite of leadership.

If you’re at a polling place experiencing an issue with a tabulator, you have three options & your vote will be counted in each. 1) stay where you are and wait for tabulator to come online 2) drop your ballot in the secure slot (door 3) on tabulator 3) go to a nearby vote center
