Voted about two weeks ago.
Our whole state (Oregon) votes mail in, on paper ballots (which can't be hacked and makes recounts hacking-proof).

Never heard of any getting lost.
No chads, its fill in the oval with ink.
Can always be recounted by hand if necessary

Also:
no time pressure to make decisions when filling out the ballot
can easily use any lists or other information you might want to consult

And Floriduh still can't get it right. What is it with Broward and Palm Beach? Broward's SOE destroyed ballots after the last election. She was brought up on charges IIRC. Still has her job though. And it seems they "found" a bunch of ballots now. One time she let out the count on mail-ins a half hour before the polls closed. Illegal.

They really seem to earn the "duh"  part down there.

Panhandle hat was devastated by Michael did a better job with the count.

There are very few personal problems that cannot be solved through a suitable application of high explosives.

More like south Floriduh has a special way. Corruption is rampant there it seems.

I check in every so often. Just this fall I took in July has taken a lot from me.

I had no idea that you'd been ill.  One day you were simply no longer posting.  Keep getting well and post more.  I look forward for both things.

In all honesty Liz I just lost interest in forums for a while. Haven't really been on any of them. Just got bored  guess. I check in here even if I don't sign in just to see how you all are doing. Still doing fish and looking to expand to just over 100 tanks. Was hoping to have that done by the end of December then get my permitting in Florida.

I was walking out to put some ribs on my Weber. I had left the cover on the floor. It's a dome with a handle. My left foot caught that handle. I saw the mower coming towards my head and said "Oh Shit!" to no one but myself. I hit the mower with my forehead. My nose hit the ground. So basically I was bleeding out of my nose and mouth and eating dirt. (I don't recommend eating dirt. In fact I don't recommend any of this ever.)
I assessed the situation. (Never lost consciousness) Can't feel, or move, my legs. My arms and shoulders in excruciating pain. Can't move them however and they are below my body  along with the bowl with the ribs and tongs. (Thank God I didn't bring a knife out like I normally do.) I am on my stomach. I can't breath well on my stomach because my phrenic nerve on the right side is paralyzed. And I can't move. So I was just lifting my head up every time to get a breath.
Said out loud "So this is how it ends."
God had other ideas however.
Screamed "Help!" for a while. I am on an acre. No one hears you. Not even in the house.
Finally I heard the screen door open so I yelled out "Cil, call 911 I need an ambulance"
"What happened?"
"I fell. I can't get up."
She gets all flustered so I have to tell her the house numbers.

Long story a bit less long I made my septum an accordion.

Something is going on with my nerves. Constant tingling feeling.

And I found out that Fentynal and Morphine do not take my pain away. I am resistant to opioids it seems. A bit worried about the septum surgery and pain management on the 21st truth be told.
