Harris County is the most populous county in Texas and a major Democratic stronghold. It’s also the size of Rhode Island.
Now it’s supposed to have just one ballot drop-off location instead of 11 because the Texas GOP says so. #VoterSuppression https://t.co/tlhmWPoahd
"It also allows poll watchers to observe the in-person delivery of mail-in ballots by voters."
In other words only having 1 polling place per county makes it a 1 stop voter intimidation shop!
Right, @GovAbbott? #VoterSuppression https://t.co/EwQ7V2oMKw
.@GovAbbott ordered Texas counties to reduce the number of ballot dropoff locations to one per county. An unprecedented number of absentee ballots are expected to be cast this fall.
Civil rights groups say it's an attempt to suppress voting. https://t.co/LmIJ11Zi3Y
New: @GregAbbott_TX says counties can only collect hand-delivered absentee ballots in ONE location—an apparent rebuke to large Democratic counties, which have designated many locations to maximize voter convenience

West Virginia’s secretary of state refutes President Trump’s claim that a postal worker in the state was “selling ballots,” while two U.S. senators expressed full confidence in the elections. https://t.co/x9fPJ2WMtk
In tonight’s presidential debate the President said the “Portland Sheriff” supports him. As the Multnomah County Sheriff I have never supported Donald Trump and will never support him.
FACT CHECK: Joe Biden said "Law & Order" twice last night.
He specifically said, "Yes, I'm in favor of law & order — law & order with justice where people get treated fairly."
We heard it with our own ears! You refused to condemn White Supremacy!
I was there for 9 months on the campaign and served on the transition team executive committee. I heard him mock religious supporters several times, including @VP. The great irony is he looks down on his base and desperately wants to be liked by those who loath him.
When Trump learned about a megachurch pastor trying to raise $60 million to buy a private jet, he was delighted by the "scam," according to Michael Cohen, and eager to highlight that the pastor was "full of sh*t."
"They're all hustlers," Trump said.

Former aides say they’ve heard Trump privately ridicule conservative religious leaders, dismiss faith groups with cartoonish stereotypes, and deride rites and doctrines held sacred by many in his base.

The Proud Boys, a far-right extremist group, pledged allegiance to President Trump on Tuesday night after he told the group to "stand back and stand by" during the evening's debate. https://t.co/UWSQNCT6Ur
President Trump was just offered up, on a silver platter, the chance to emphatically denounce white supremacists in front of tens of millions of voters.
All he could manage to muster: "Stand back and stand by."

🌎🥊 DEEP DIVE — November's election represents a hinge moment for America's place in the world.
It may be living through the last gasps of America First — or just getting a taste of what's to come, @DavidLawler10 writes. https://t.co/MyFFdgbYNX
From Myanmar to Canada, people are asking: How was a superpower like the U.S. felled by a virus? And why won’t the president commit to a peaceful transition of power?
We talked to people around the world about how they see America today. https://t.co/vOrO644W4v
"What went wrong in the Trump era was not that the president delicately tiptoed around the law. What went wrong in the Trump era was that the cops in charge of the law were asleep, or senile, or in cahoots with the president," writes @DavidFrum: https://t.co/EgeuOLdsOS
