Voted before 8am in my Lexington hood.
Handed my paper ballot to the guy with the scanner, and he scanned it.
Walked away feeling good about election integrity.

Then I realized, I don't actually know if that scanner worked properly or not, and if my vote was properly counted or not.
We have sent men to the moon, cured diseases, and accomplished numerous great things in our history, there is no reason a person should walk away from such an important aspect of our society with any form of trepidation.
The only way to know it's wrong is to take a photo of it before scanning. Otherwise, it's you against the scanner.
 
Don't think I saw it on here, but CNN (of all people) reported the other day that Harris was running pro-Hamas commercials in Michigan................and pro-Israeli commercials in PA. That might have worked in the 50s, 60s, 70s, but not today.
Would have funny (and they may have) if the Repubs took the video and switched states.
 
Mark my words, almost any non 1%, 30-40y old household I know, is getting severely pinched right now and every week, more and more households are dipping into some form of delinquency.. and each of those households is going into "save" mode and not participating in spending in the economy nearly as much.

And this isn't Mississippi, this is New York, where there's a "strong" job market and money to go around.

For the first time ever, I might pull back on my retirement percentages by a basis point or two. Just for a little more cash flow. And that goes very much against my financial principals.
Sucks to hear that, everyone is getting pinched. Inflation has come way down though since COVID but prices for most things are staying the same and sadly Trump isn’t fixing that. I’m not going to keep repeating it but Trump isn’t magically lowering prices. Biden has gotten inflation under control and avoided an almost-certain recession better than any country in the world. I hope Trump doesn’t screw that up, although he will almost certainly take credit for the record stock market Biden has going.

The ironic thing is that everyone on this board talked differently during trumps term pre-COVID when it came to people struggling (yes MAGA morons, people struggled then too). Of course when we brought it up, you guys said “well maybe people need to curb spending and not live above their means” or “I see people complaining about money but still manage to have iPhones and stuff”. Or my personal favorite “if these people are having a hard time feeding their families, they need to just remember bananas are still only 20 cents a pound”. Funny how when it affects them though, it’s Biden’s fault and only the former reality tv show host can magically fix it. Instead maybe just realize prices just are what they are now and we’re not getting those sweet deals at Taco Bell back ever again.

Not even think about it.

That’s exactly what I’ve said since the minute y’all started this election doubting crap back in 2016 with Trump’s ‘millions of illegals voted’. An ID doesn’t do squat. You still give your vote to tabulators that could just be making up whatever they want. Everything about voting relies on faith in the system and it’s always been that way. You’d have to have a federal takeover of elections with a set, transparent process and uniformity to have any sort of confidence.
 
I was offended today when I went to vote and they asked for my id and had to match it to their records. Why can’t they just take my word for it? Does andy beshear support this crap? You would think he would have overturned that law by now if he had any brains. Is this just some crazy law ky has? He’s horrible 😉.
 
I absolutely don’t trust any part of this election. The “white men are surging to the polls after work!” stuff coming from Charlie Kirks of the world is exactly what we heard in 2020 and look what happened.

Just not buying any of it, as someone who prefers Trump
