#2 All the more reason to restrict mail-in votes until the week before the election, and limit early voting to 1 day each of the previous 2 weeks prior, including maybe a Saturday.

There's a reason they call it Election DAY. Its important to have ALL the info and take some time to think about such an important task.

#4 It's a great story, but how many "Orange Man bad" voters really want a do-over because Sleepy Jue seems to be losing momentum? I have a hard time believing it's a lot. Ditto Trump voters saying "Biden sure sealed the deal in that last debate." That I actually see even less likely.
The dems and the left will screech for boo-coo changes again if Joe loses, but one change you won't see, let alone hear they are discussing among themselves is "Maybe we should move more to the center." No, you won't be hearing or seeing that.

#6 ^ What I might believe is lots of searches are occurring for "Can I change my other people's votes?" Apparently hackers have had some luck with that in Oregon...

#7 I've been seeing YouTube ads with Biden urging people to cast their ballots as soon as possible.

This could be one reason.

Another reason for this might be that they're planning some kind of mass shutdown/disruption and need to lock in the Biden votes while preventing Trump votes.

#8 “Someone stole my mail-in ballot. Please send me another.”

Like, for example, a postal workers strike?

Funny thing, I seem to recall the postal union coming out in favor of one candidate in particular

#10 Like, for example, a postal workers strike?

Great point.

Kinda makes you wonder about Trump's recent executive order.

#11 I can see voters in Pennsylvania and Texas in the energy industry who always voting D changing their mind after the debate.

#12 Remember this when it comes time to rework the election rules. Less early voting. Make early voting available no more than 2 weeks in advance of the date of the general. And no vote postmarked before that time, or after the date of the general election, excepting military/overseas, will be accepted.

Simple fix.

#13 /\ "Somebody opened my mail-in ballot to see if they agreed with MY votes." A hypothetical but chilling possibility.
