politics @lemmy.world•Trump Says It’s Not His Signature. But Personal Letters Look Similar.
5·1 year agoThis is hilarious because if it was faked the signature would match EXACTLY, like, Photoshop perfect.
The fact that it’s an organic signature is just that much more damning.

politics @lemmy.world•Democrat Jasmine Crockett says she's the party's future—not everyone agrees
5·1 year agoAOC is great too, but I think some people are looking for revolution in the party and Jasmine gives off more “ready to flip the table over” energy, which is resonating with a lot of people these days.

Appealing to their better selves hasn’t worked. I’m ready to try someone willing to tell them to sit down and shut up because the adults are talking. Besides, if you watch her speak for a bit, it’s clear she has earned that confidence and done her homework.

11·1 year agoNot that public visibility isn’t important, but if we don’t replace the people in the room choosing who the party gives all their money to, nothing is going to change.

Well that’s idiotic. You can also drop it off in person at any mailbox or any county drop box. If you want to define it by your proximity to where you drop it off instead of by process, we can say it’s all in person voting.
And of course I’m arguing semantics, definitions ARE a matter of semantics. Also, I work for the government, you have no idea the number of stupid ambiguous laws we have to navigate every day. We live in a world of semantics.
One of us is an elections official in Washington, it isn’t you. King county is having a special election right now, if you are in a participating district, ask them what the difference is between the “in person” ballot and the mail in when you go in. It’s the same ballot.
Oh that makes sense, they do have a separate process there to handle all the people that are convinced that there’s an in person process, but it’s still just a mail in ballot and a county drop box, they just don’t have time to try and convince you that you aren’t special.
Maybe that was back when they still had in person voting in Washington, but it’s just one type of ballot packet and mail or drop boxes now.
Maybe they held your hand and called it in person to make you feel better, but there’s no different process in Washington State that’s different than the mail in process.
Yeah, no.
Even if you choose to pick up your mail in ballot in our office, and even if you drop off in the drop box in our office, you still got a mail in ballot and dropped it in a county drop box. Everyone can do that, you weren’t special or different, just needy.
Maybe so, but in that case doing it at home with your own mailbox meets that same criteria.
My point is that there isn’t a different “in person” process. There’s only one process; you get a mail ballot packet, you fill it out, and you drop off in a mailbox or county drop box.
I work in elections in Washington, there is only mail in voting plus county drop boxes. Yes you can say you lost your ballot or didn’t get it and come in for a replacement, but we give you the same mail in packet you world receive at home.
Yes you can drop it in the drop box in our office or you can take it home and mail it. But any voter can drop their mail in ballot off in our office as well. We don’t have polling places or voting machines, or a way to separate out and assign race to a ballot so we could somehow treat those differently. They all come in as a big stack for processing.
Why do ballots get rejected? Mismatched signatures is the biggest reason. If your signature doesn’t match what we have on file we mail you a form to fix it, we also text and email you. Maybe from demographic groups are less likely to respond? The other one is people who forget to sign, which follows the same procedure.
What I can say is that is there is some sort of disparity, it isn’t happening in the ballot processing room.
I’d love for a bearded trans man to walk in there, look her dead in the eye and tell her not to worry, he has a vagina.

Republican observers have always been present in our county to watch every step of election processing. They never miss any tiny part of the process. My state is still going to be processing mail in ballots for several days, but yesterday morning the Republican observers just disappeared and stopped coming.
