There is a movement called #walkaway ... People leaving the Democratic party..
it's picked up some steam since trumps indictment...

It was also picking up steam before the midterms and was one of the reasons
a "red wave" was coming... that never came.

And remember that Hitler and Mussolini admired the Democrats - but thought tha
they were too extreme in their racism.

I would believe that Mussolini thought that... he also thought Hitler was
too extreme when it came to the Jews and others... but I think that Hitler shared disdain for other races with the Democrats of the 1920s-40s.

The Italian Fascist party had Jews as members. Italian Jews were not in
too much trouble except in the parts of Italy that Germany eventually controlled.

I'm one of those guys who thinks the elections are rigged.

Sorry, we need to get as handle on our elections... I'm okay with mail in ballots... at your request only... doesn't have to be election 3 months... if your mail in ballot doesn't make it in by election day too bad... Maybe a week of early voting... Thats it...

BTW, I always get a mail in ballot... Florida always asks questions to make sure I am me... and I have to tell them either the last 4 of my social or my Florida State ID #...

Get rid of ballot harvesting and un-manned drop boxes.... BTW if I drop off my ballot personally I had to walk into a building to drop it off and there was a worker right there at the box...

I agree with most of this, to a point. Several years ago (IIRC, 2000), a certain party (who now wants every late ballot counted) tried to disallow
votes cast by service members because the USPS or APO "messed up" and didn't get the ballots to where they needed to go on time.

Not as sure now but, back then, the military voted heavily Republican.

We get three days of early voting, including a Saturday. I like it because
it fits in better with my work schedule. That was a Republican SOS that
came up with that idea.

As it should be.

allot personally I had to walk into a building to drop it off and there was a rker right there at the box...

There should never be unmanned drop boxes, but I know many cities/states do have them now.
