    OK, so just today, I said to myself, when am I going to get my Florida absentee ballot? So I went online to check my voting status and low and below all was well. I was like where the hell is it? I just checked my mail and boom there it was, I thought for a second Florida didn't want me to vote.

    My wife and I mailed in our ballots a couple of days ago.  She had wanted to drop them in an official ballot box because she thought "it would feel more like real voting."  But we were at the P.O. so we dropped them off there with some other mail.  The nice man behind the counter said he had to take the ballots in their signed and sealed envelopes and postage stamp them and place them separately for secure delivery because of some of the controversy related to voting by mail.  It felt good to know our ballots were being sent securely. 
    After reading about the following, I'm really glad we took them to the post office!

    Fires set in drop boxes destroy hundreds of ballots in Washington and damage 3 in Oregon

    PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Incendiary devices were set off Monday at two ballot drop boxes — one in Portland and another in nearby Vancouver, Washington — destroying hundreds of ballots in what one official called a “direct attack on democracy” about a week before a heated Election Day.

    The early morning fire at the drop box in Portland was extinguished quickly thanks to a suppression system inside the box as well as a nearby security guard, police said, and just three ballots were damaged there.

    But within a few hours, another fire was discovered at a transit center drop box across the Columbia River in Vancouver. Vancouver is the biggest city in Washington’s 3rd Congressional District, the site of what is expected to be one of the closest U.S. House races in the country, between first-term Democratic Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez and Republican challenger Joe Kent.

    The ballot box in Vancouver also had a fire suppression system inside, but that failed to prevent hundreds of ballots from burning, said Greg Kimsey, the longtime elected auditor in Clark County, Washington, which includes Vancouver. He urged voters who dropped their ballots in the transit center box after 11 a.m. Saturday to contact his office for a replacement ballot.

    Im sure there will be a long line of Haitians, Puerto Ricans and Kenyans lining up to request replacement ballots. I’m also pretty sure it wouldn’t, no couldn’t possibly have been a Joe Kent supporter.

    Bezos' letter in WaPo tonight is pathetic. I partially get his point, but it's poorly supported and pushes the blame on us, the readers. Fuck him and Amazon. Done with both. I hope to return to WaPo someday because they still have good journalists, but Lewis is fucking things up with the both sides slant these days. There is some truth to that on a small scale, but the overall consensus is resoundingly clear that Republicans have lost the script or decided to follow the one they found in a dumpster at Trump's failed casino.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    I’m not sure I’m able to get beyond his headline. Good lord Jeff, how about trying to restore our trust and faith by making a well argued endorsement? Fucking weak ass shit, it’s too hard to stand up to tyranny by making a strong argument so I’ll just take my ball and go home. No wonder your wife left you. Weak and pathetic.

    Bezos' letter in WaPo tonight is pathetic. I partially get his point, but it's poorly supported and pushes the blame on us, the readers. Fuck him and Amazon. Done with both. I hope to return to WaPo someday because they still have good journalists, but Lewis is fucking things up with the both sides slant these days. There is some truth to that on a small scale, but the overall consensus is resoundingly clear that Republicans have lost the script or decided to follow the one they found in a dumpster at Trump's failed casino.
    I’m not sure I’m able to get beyond his headline. Good lord Jeff, how about trying to restore our trust and faith by making a well argued endorsement? Fucking weak ass shit, it’s too hard to stand up to tyranny by making a strong argument so I’ll just take my ball and go home. No wonder your wife left you. Weak and pathetic.

    Yeah, the holier than though approach will work well coming from a billionaire. Did he prep for his op-ed by binge watching A Few Good Men all weekend long? I was also irked when he used "we" when speaking of the journalists at WaPo. Sorry Jeff, you don't get to insert yourself in that collective just because you're the owner.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Machete-wielding teen arrested after group accused of intimidating Democratic supporters at Florida polling station, police say

    Caleb James Williams was arrested after allegedly brandishing his weapon at two women, ages 71 and 54, police said.

    Police arrested an 18-year-old wielding a machete with an 18-inch blade outside a polling station in Florida on Tuesday, who was part of a group of teenagers accused of intimidating Democratic supporters.

    The teenager, Caleb James Williams, was arrested after 4 p.m. when officers were called to the Beaches Branch Library in Neptune Beach.

    Williams was arrested on charges of aggravated assault for allegedly brandishing his weapon at two unidentified women, ages 71 and 54, and improper exhibition of a weapon, Neptune Beach Police Department said.

    The local Democratic campaign said it was "deeply concerned" about the Tuesday's events, in which it said a group of young men waving signs supporting former President Donald Trump confronted a group holding signs promoting Kamala Harris.
