@carstenfranke I appreciate you understanding the difference between my explaining something and defending it.
FYI If I needed degoogled android; and I wasn't going to flash a rom myself, id be looking at the dumber mini, and their dumbOS right now. Just FYI.
Personally, Im moving on to the Commodore Callback, which my pre-order should be arriving here in 6-8 weeks, I think.

Fill out forms illegibly so that they will have to be done over; make mistakes or omit requested information in forms.

Good question...
Cheri Jacobus: Why should Dems elect as Speaker a guy who normalized and met with the guy "to find common ground" who handed over this other guy to be murdered by the guy who paid him $2 billion?
@ai6yr I remember! That was a real adventure. I hope this does not also take weeks xD
(I am tho' worried that aluminium has welded to steel, because those are the metals involved here, so.)

And “cured” here means following the process for fixing whatever prevented the voter from being allowed to cast a regular ballot. So it’s “cured” as in curing an illness, not curing epoxy.

After the polls close, the election outcome is generally determined, and it’s just a matter of letting the count proceed and waiting for the results. But one exception is provisional ballots, where campaigns continue their GOTV efforts to encourage those who voted that way to cure their ballots before the deadline.
Mississippi’s senate seat is likely to be decided by provisional ballots this year, so we’re seeing a lot of this activity now.

Successful night tonight, my chums. Very lovely to have unlocked a new level in life of going out with non-drinking male friends. Difficult to convey the alcohol culture in the UK, but you're basically indoctrinated into going out with your mates and getting annihilated on alcohol and that's essentially your whole social and personal relationships. Unsurprisingly this has a knock on effect to many other areas of your lives. Culturally it's not terribly healthy. So I'm thrilled to have discovered going out on a Saturday night to a shisha joint and just banging a load of sparkling water, tea, a bit of food and having a shisha. Also not terrifically good for you, but a far cry from drinking 8 pints and getting in fights. Had a laugh, talked about our feelings and listened to one another and came away from it validated and positive and crucially will wake up tomorrow (today) feelin' fine. Although I went slightly overboard on the sweet potato fries and hummus. Like a wildman. Men! You too can do this and still be a total double-dog alpha male. Grrr. Had so much hummus mate. You should have seen my BiL. Went mental on the shisha and had 4 cokes. We cannot be stopped. Also - we talked about our hopes and worries in a way that was supportive and nurturing. Oi oiiiiii!

That's no way to wind up peeing in an alley in the wee hours. Glad you had a blast.

Okay, after making the joke in a reply, I couldn't resist making this.
@carstenfranke It’s really unfathomable to people from other other democracies how many things we vote for.
@mattblaze absolutely! This was only my 2nd US election and it took me a while to figure out all the offices I was voting for.
And in other countries there may be way more voting locations and more election judges. In my hometown we had to count about 300 paper ballots with a team of 6...
I really appreciate your insights on the US system and the safeguards in place. Your posts over there years have been very educational.
