    There must be an awful lot of people who are excused for a variety of reasons. Right now, I imagine an awful lot of reasons include I don't want to expose myself to Covid-19.

    How about a mail in ballot like we have here in Oregon and they're talking about extending to the rest of our country?

    I find nearly all of our ballot choices to be rank.

    Yeah we are able to postal vote. Normally you need to apply for it, and have a good reason, like you're going to be interstate or overseas. That may change for the next election, and they'll let anyone postal vote without needing a reason.

    This certainly seems better than our current system of hate-filled campaign politics.

    There is no perfect way of making the best selection. Each has pros and cons.
    I haven't given it enough thought to pick the one with the most pros and the least cons.

    Surely a Staff Global Moderator Moderator can add that.

    So you've finally seen the light and determined that Trump is a loser.
