About a week ago, maybe Oct 1, I got a text message from the State Election Board saying they have my ballot. However, state law prevents them from opening the envelope and counting my votes until after polls close on Election Day, Nov 5. Apparently, they collect all mail-in ballots until they decide if these votes are needed to determine the outcome. Then and only then do they count those ballots. They are identical paper ballots as used on election day, all read by scanners. In 2020, an estimated 40% of all votes in Maryland were mailed-in.

That's another archaic election procedure that must change.
Correction: Apparently none of that was right.

Yesterday, 18 Oct, I got a text message from the Maryland State Board of Elections. It said "Your mail-in ballot has been counted by your local Board of Elections …"

Sorry for the goof.

I've had enough of the rabid campaigning. Election day can't come soon enough. If only it would stop after November 5th!

Did you by chance call your board of election to verify that they even send emails or text in the first place?
I don't get anything from them except by mail.

And check the junk mail folder as well, but a number of mail services filters e-mails so that they don't even come to junk mail folder (Microsoft, as an example).

I never had to call them. If I remember correctly, when I applied (online?) for mail-in voting, I chose texting instead of email or snail mail for ballot status info. They also have a website that allows one to check the status of your ballot, but I never bothered to go there.

California must have a different system.

Probably as I have not checked recently as I just get a query if I am still here, and we keep getting the ballots in the mail. I think this year may be the first time they asked for email and phone number on the back of envelope, under the flap.
Just too much weird stuff out there and need caution what is real or fake.

So, since they wanted phone, I guess them may start texting in the future. But then, not knowing their phone number, that too needs to be verified in the future by calling number on their website.

Stalking me around the forum is inappropriate. Stop it!
Oh my, stalking? Good grief, you're not the sharpest knife in the shed are you?

From reading your posts of what you've written, including about yourself:

You have many guns, unhealthy love of guns, at least one silencer, xenophobia, racism, criminal past, messy divorce , failed business, unhealthy love of military (but you where rejected twice), far right extremism, Christian Nationalism and prone to believe conspiracy theories. So yeah, you tick all the boxes of "unstable and dangerous".

Wow, you are stalking me. You must really have zero life. I didn’t even post in this thread yet you tag me in it, nice living rent free in your head!

Yes I have many guns, not sure that I love any of them.
Xenophobia: I love a great many people from around the world. I even love Muslim people but I have a healthy disdain for terrorists that want to kill me and my Jewish family.

Racism: you’re joking right?

Criminal past: yep, in spades but it’s been more than half a lifetime.

Messy divorce: we filed together then went out to lunch to celebrate together. Obviously we don’t see eye to eye on everything but maybe that’s why we’re divorced

Military: only rejected from the Naval Academy because I was caught with a backpack full of wee, would be different today. Accepted the second time as a Marine if I finished my Associates. Didn’t happen as I was too busy selling drugs and being a criminal

Far Right Extremism: much of my family is but I’m much more moderate and refuse to officially be a part of any party.

Politics, I guess it depends on the subject.

Christian Nationalism: you’re going to make up your own mind no matter what I say. Christian, yes. Love my country, also yes

Conspiracy theories: only that you’re a nut job but I’m probably right on that one

Again, I didn’t even post in this thread yet you’re tagging me in it. You’ve also followed all my posts enough to take notes even if you’re wrong and that’s just weird. I’m going to say this one last time, if we’re engaging in a post feel feee to respond in a discussion but if you’re going to follow me around random threads tagging me I’m going to assume that’s harassment. You really need to get a life

Let me add: Paranoia and whining.

So Maricopa County is ready for someone like you.

As it shapes up to be 'the' battleground state, Pa appears to be dealing with numerous fraudulent ballots in Lancaster County. In all probability Friday the 8th will be the earliest we know who wins the election.

Early signs of fear of retribution to come.
Which is why the owner of WP and Amazon, Jeff Bezos, squashed the endorsement. Perhaps WP should put some sunlight on Bezos, to live by be their motto: “Democracy Dies in Darkness”
