Another proud Biden voter. I wish he'd endorse Joe publicly.

We've been waiting years. I've never felt this strongly about an election. The fool in the White House has got to go!

In other crucial swing states, the number of early voters who have already cast their ballots vastly eclipse 2016 figures: https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/15/polit...ion/index.html

Whatever political ideology you hold, you should be PROUD of the voter participation we are seeing this election year. Lets make this a year to remember and get it as close to 100% as we possibly can. Americans want to be heard this election.
I voted on Wednesday here in Colorado so mine is included in that count!


Dropped my ballot off at my favorite library. There was a good line of people in cars waiting to drop off when I left the library.
It was a beautiful sight.

The breakdown of those 300,000:
“139,000 came from Democratic voters, more than 100,000 came from unaffiliated voters and about 58,000 came from Republican voters.“

May as well get this coming war over with.
And one of them obligingly shows up to make my point.

In person absentee voting in Wisconsin begins on October 20th. I am planning on going on the 21st. Hopefully, it won't be too bad.

I truly believe this will be the highest turnout in history. I don't see to many fence sitters this election.

So far it seems Reps and Dems are voting in similar numbers. Of course a lot of those Dems will vote for Trump.

Ever heard of Blexit, WalkAway and moderate Dems who still have brains?

I’m celebrating Americans voting, regardless of political affiliation. Be well.

Come on, even Obama wouldn't endorse poor old Joe until he had no choice..... In fact he urged him not to run.
