Wow. When the people turn out, Dems win.
Probably not, but we’ll see.

thats the important question.
Are these early votes, or are they absentee votes?
Ideally, these votes can be counted before election day, especially in the battleground states.
So if we know that Biden is winning and we can count these votes before Election Day, it’s pretty easy to either report false information. Interesting.
We should have limited early voting and only for good reason and people should have to go to the polls Election Day. That’s the ONLY way to stop widespread cheating.
And provisional ballots should be kept well away from election officials, who might simply mix them in because .... feelings. That’s exactly what happened in Maricopa County AZ
There is absolutely ZERO proof or circumstance of "widespread cheating" based on mail in/absentee ballots. When asked by federal judges in various cases for proof, the GOP was not able to cite ANY circumstances of it. In fact, the only time there has been cheating at scale was 2016 NC-09 when the GOP did it and several people are now convicted felons because of it.
The mail in ballots have individual bar codes, signature verifications and other fail-safes that make it virtually impossible. Add to it, they also leave a paper trail, in the event a recount is necessary. something in-person electronic voting does not have. Finally, why should voting be made hard? Not everyone can wait in a long line on a random Tuesday in November. Between jobs, health care, childcare etc, it is crazy to limit people to a small window to vote. A democracy should encourage and make easy ALL people voting. Yet one side wants to make it hard and limiting. Why?
Because only the Democrats are interested in governing and democracy. The GOP has dwindling popularity and their sole gambit is hard core cheating.

I also voted absentee in MD. I’m not worried about our votes getting tossed because it’s pretty unlikely they will challenge the Maryland election since the state is so blue. It would be a huge waste of money. If I lived I a swing state I would have voted in person.
Please don't mail your ballots. Drop them off at designated locations. See here how: https://myballotbox.app/

Many states do this, other states laws permit only the counting starting on election day.

What is your reason for waiting until Election Day? Not asking angrily or anything - but curious why you wouldn't avail yourself of an earlier opportunity. I literally mailed back my ballot the day I got it, I was so excited and eager to vote this year. Are you not actually that enthusiastic about voting?
NP. Because in person votes are easier to count and Trump's campaign is planning on questioning the authenticity of any vote not done in person.
Some states start counting mail-in/absentee on or before election day. It is the states that start counting and continue AFTER election day where they are going to try to challenge, suggesting that whatever the count was on election day is where the counting should end. North Carolina and Ohio have already started counting their drop-off and mailin votes and will be able to announce the full state on the 3rd or early on the 4th.

Michigan has early voting. You can drop off your ballot in person before Election Day.

Why wait until Election Day when your state specifically has wacko militias who are likely to be disruptive?
