There should be lawsuit to keep FL polls open till Friday.The Governor has declared Southeast Florida under a hurricane watch. Time to get prepared the best you can. I am a long distance from there, still we keep an eye on it because these things are so unpredictable.

Shoot Sir, I'd poke you in the eye for $1000.00... Oh he did more than that? 😁
Rand is one of the smartest people that I have ever known. Sherry and I were in all his commercials on his first run for the Senate. We went with him to file for the office and worked our asses off to get him elected. We ended up being too visible.
We were so involved that we got our Income Taxes audited for 10 straight years. We were part of the Cincinnati scandal, remember Lois Learner? I now have to have professionals do my taxes as I am a marked man due to politics. A whole bunch of folks don't believe that but bureaucrats can cause a lot of pain if they so choose. And even when discovered nothing happens to them even though they have cost you thousand of dollars.
I wish we had 50 Senators like Rand Paul. He is my favorite by far and I would be honored to vote for him. I guess I will not get that opportunity but it would be nice.

I need to show this to my grandson. He is on the Ultimate Frisbee team at his university. He has a lot of fun throwing that thing.
Wound up voting against Amendment #2, not because I disagree with it, but because of the "trigger" law it will put into effect. I came around to a law needing to be passed as the Constitution is, not was. So as long as the trigger law is the basis of abortion limitations, I'm against both the Amendment & the law. Pass another law based on a newly instituted amendment, not the other way around. Let it be passed in the light of day so to speak. JMO.Respect yours & everyone's opinion, but I'll vote for both amendments. The abortion one, #2, doesn't ban abortion but says the courts don't have a say in KY law on abortion. Good. Now the law that will go into effect if #2 passes is quite extreme to me, but I'd rather it be changed by the Legislature. I'd hope that in time they'd loosen it a bit.
As for #1, the Legislature is restricted not only in number of days it can meet but also in actual dates it can meet. I believe the 60 day session needs to end by Apr. 15 & the 30 days one earlier. That means the Legislature can't do a dam thing to reverse a Gov's action, like covid shutdowns, till it's time for another session. Net, the Gov is a virtual state dictator for the majority of the year. #1 adds 12 days to each year's session. NBD to me. But, the Legislature can call any of those 12 days at any time of the year such that it can override a Gov's bs. I'm all for cutting down dictators' powers.

I totally agree with your basis.
Voted early last week. Took about 10 minutes. All in favor of early voting.
