I live in a "swing state," the only place where any votes seem to count according to people who defend the electoral college.
My daughter is a county clerk; she is in charge of handling elections for a large county in Michigan.
The FBI came in and told her to shut down all her social media, and if she couldn’t, to remove all references to family and change her name.
No one in her office is allowed to open any mail without gloves and a mask. They have armed security when they enter and leave the city building. They receive 2-3 letters a day filled with white powder (so far, flour or powdered sugar).
Please don’t think we’ve got this under control. There is LITERALLY a war going on, quietly, waged by domestic terrorists, to take away your right to have your voice heard.
This woman, who I can’t name because her life is in danger, goes into combat every single day to try to protect your right to have your voice heard!
Don’t let her down.
Women are more than half of the Va. population but ONLY 36% of our State House! In #HD84 I'm the only woman & Dem with in-district experience. Abortion is on the ballot. Our best defense against @GovernorVA's extremism is strong, pro-choice women. #ElectWomen

I still can't get over this, one of the most important "natural experiments" to come from COVID:

It's all right there in front of us, a free lunch pathway to reducing some of the most immense cruelty in our society.
61% of the votes in Utah have been counted - a lower percentage than in Arizona or Nevada. But because Utah is a Republican state, no one's suggesting this is because "they're" trying to steal the Senate election for Mike Lee.
