Did you read the article?

It says if you follow all the protocols people have been saying to follow then you are pretty safe. The issue is with the dummies who refuse to take these simple steps.

Of course not, I would never subject myself to swill from The Hill.

It was just using it as a prop, transparently I thought.

I'm not. That's what makes the whole thing more confusing. What has happened and what's the argument?

it's some secret conspiracy of the Dems to use illegitimate counting machines to steal the election.

there's been a lot of "Grand Conspiracy" going back to the 2016 election and 2018...Adrian Fontes is a Democrat and has been accused of all kinds of stuff...halving polling stations while the number of voters doubled, for one. It was an issue in the election down here.

The one about the military is most concerning to me. It sounds like they're arguing that if you're stationed overseas for a few years, your vote can't count anymore because it can't be used to determine a state's electoral college votes. Also, then a sitting president, who is in charge of the military, can have people shifted around to be stationed in states where they want the votes to count if they are stationed in the US and still not allowed to vote for their home state.

Very strange. Unless I am misunderstanding it, it seems like a dangerous issue that could possibly end up before someone like Brett Kavanaugh. If you are serving our country, and representing your home state in our military, your vote should count.

Maybe people don't think of Nevada as being a strong part of someone's identity the same way they think of people being Texans or New Yorkers, but I think if you said someone from Texas were stationed in Germany, and they still identified as a Texan and not a German, it would feel more obvious that their vote should count for Texas, right? Whether they can afford to maintain a home there while deployed or not?

Idk that one seems nutty to me and not really something republicans would normally think to support.

Historically you have always voted where your home of record is.
Trying to change that is a direct attack on military members
