   They use simple math. 50,000 people voted for X, 75,000 people voted for Y. There are 20,000 mail in ballots. There is no way X can win.

   Now, if there are 25,000 mail in ballots, they count until they have enough votes for Y (within a reasonable margin of error), to call the election, then they are done.

   Again math. and all the ballots are all locked up and saved “just in case” they need to be recounted.

   Why not volunteer to be a poll worker and get an up-close-and-personal view of the process?

   And how is that different from the “social engineering” done by US owned companies like facebook (meta) and twitter (X) ??

   Don’t misinterpret what I’m saying. I don’t like that a foreign entity has so much power to “sway” eyeballs in the US…but the metric needs to be applied fairly across the board. Just because it’s a US Based & Controlled company, does not mean that it’s can’t-won’t do the same thing.

   Now…If I were the judge, I would have asked trump “what is the name of the school that your son attends?”.

   I’d put money on it that he wouldn’t then I would smuggly retort: “if you can’t name the school, then it must not be that important. request denied”.

   I think we could make an entire series: Brokeback Beach – Miami, Brokeback Beach – The Hamptons, Brokeback Beach – Hilton Head, Brokeback Beach – French Riviera, …

   The paths around Madison WI are multi-use: walker, runner, rollerblades (all kinds from hockey blades to “high speed” blades), single wheel electric (single wheel between the legs) or electric skateboard, regular bikes, e-bikes, stand-up-eleptical bikes, and a first for me today: a unicycle commuter. Most riders are courteous and most walkers are accommodating (like not walking 4 abreast across the trail). The trails are maintained in summer (with a vacuum-sweeper) and plowed-brushed in the winter. Multi-use trails can work.

   “on your left” helps maybe 50% of the time. A lot of pedestrians or runners have earbuds or headphones and don’t hear you at all. A small percentage of time, they hear “on your left” and then take a step to the left — I have come soooo close to hitting a few walkers when they mistake a warning for an instruction.

    We should start a rumor that the $60 bibles have special instructions written in them in code, then, sell a decoder ring to all the MAGA nut jobs for, I dunno, another $60 so the faithful know their instructions come judgment day.
