Cool! That it's higher than that of four years ago.

I'll be mailing back my Florida ballot by the end of the week and voting for all the Democrat candidates and 'yes' on amendment 4 to restore women's reproductive rights, at least in our state. Maybe we can make Florida a haven for women in the deep south seeking reproductive health care.

Vote Kamala Democrat 2024

[jasonwells]

Last chance to save America. Don't complain afterwards.

[Tonezhomz]

But, can the ballots be flipped for Harris once turned in?

[deeliciousplum]

Though filled with worries and with concerns, there are times where I do need to temporarily place my thoughts and gaze upon something which makes me smile. The giant panda cam is certainly one of those elements. Adorable! 🐼🥰

[rblanks]

ha ha. state sponsored npr! dnc propaganda tool!

[vashmatrix]

Sick that our nation is letting people who aren't citizens vote!

[JenniferNIsbet-nd]

Do these people have jobs? How can that many people have time to vote on a weekday during business hours. I heard the lines in some places were long.That's a lot of people.

[thevoiceofreason]

Good! Then there should be no excuses/delays in providing We The People the election results.

BTW, "record early voting" doesn't mean the candidate NPR is biased towards is winning. Otherwise, they'd have bragged about that😂😂😂

[supershayloman]

But how many of those were actually Americans?

[InfinityEightplus]

NPR is going to be mad when Trump takes Georgia 😆

HARRIS & THE POWER OF MONEY - $$
Since ancient times man has had a need for barter
Which is a French word that means to exchange or trade.
Before we relied on paper or metal coins
Arrangements for food, clothing and shelter were made.

As man developed, there was more to be exchanged
And one of the earliest forms of cash was cattle.
He who owned the most livestock was the richest man
Purchasing slaves, soldiers and weapons for battle.

Paper has been used since the tenth century A.D.
Because it was easier to carry than coin.
Used by every civilized country in the world
As their economies merged and joined.

Some say that money is the root of all evil
Though the substance of evil is none other than man.
It's not money that causes most of what's wrong
But the ignorance of man, and his misguided hand.

Money is one of life's most powerful forces
To fulfill and sustain our Earthly need.
We work for it, spend it and waste it away
And sometimes we're the victim of greed.

Worrying about crime, taxes, border and terrorism
Infectious disease and paying next month’s bills.
Saving for college and our own retirement
It's no wonder we drink, smoke, pray and pop pills.
