...please do not pretend I am speaking of some election-rigging conspiracy. I am speaking only of what Trump has already said he will find a way to do: eliminate mail-in balloting, absentee balloting, and early voting, while making Election Day a non-holiday that is your only chance to vote—with ID.

Sen. Ron Johnson: "Democrats want to turn America into a one party nation. They'll turn DC and Puerto Rico into states. They'll nationalize our elections -- automatic registration, mail in balloting. So we need to stop them."

It’s true that there were many problems with balloting at the convention. That was obvious to anyone who attended. Electronic voting was supposed to be faster and more secure than paper ballots. Unfortunately, the balloting system failed.

While we’re disappointed with the problems with balloting, we also understand how difficult it is to organize a convention. The DFL volunteers who did that work did the best they could with limited resources. We appreciate their work and know the problems with balloting were not intentional.

So far Trump has tried to rig the midterms by:
1. Attempted to nationalize voter registration & voting requirements.
2. Mid-decade gerrymanders.
3. Tried to use the USPS to obstruct mail-in balloting.
4. Used taxpayer money for ads.
5. Intimidation of election officials.

Trump has no power to “decree” that voters must present ID or to end mail-in balloting. But that doesn’t mean he can’t at least try both.

We had an unprecedented shift toward absentee balloting during the pandemic and we should have a far more precedented shift to in person voting now that Trump's fucking with the mail
My very, very best advice if you're voting by mail aligns with what many election administrators recommend. If you put your ballot in the mail, do it ASAP and check to make sure it was received. Even better is to return it to a dropbox or deliver it in person at the election office.

For those of us who pay quarterly taxes or any other payment by December 31, this unheralded change in postal policy can bite you in the butt. This could have other unforeseen consequences (e.g., mail-in balloting), but for now, this is more timely.

Hello from the Ramsey County District 5 convention, which was supposed to start at noon and is instead starting at 1:30. I deliberately came at 1 so as to miss a bunch of stuff and whoops, apparently I should have come at 2:30 😂😩
