According to the thumbs down and up I say your poll is wrong.

No voter cares if it takes a month to correctly count the votes.
Only the media freaks about this.
They won't have anyone watching their commercials.
And the media can go f itself.

My God. Why are we doing all of these things??

[jharringtonable]

I would rather delay the results than risk my life to vote. Don't get me wrong I WILL risk my life to kick Trump out of office but if I don't have to why would I?

I will get my ballot weeks before November 3rd. The day I receive it, it gets filled out and sent in. Just like I have done for 20 years. No worries whatsoever about a hypothetical delay. It has been confirmed by both parties in my state to be honest. So republicans, go ahead and scream foul, when there is none. We expect no less from you.
