I won’t be watching the election returns tonight.  Any media coverage before the polls are closed on the west coast will be shear propaganda to discourage those that haven’t voted yet.

After that the stories will shift to laying the groundwork for excuses for corrupt election officials that are not and will not do their jobs.  Already the reports are coming in on election machines in different (only Republican) counties failing and preventing people from voting.

May I point out that a paper ballot and a pencil never suffers a ‘computer error’.

More than the Presidential election, I’m praying for the Republicans to take the Senate and hold the House.  Otherwise the next four years will be a futile effort to achieve any worthwhile results.  And even if Donald Trump is re-elected (again) it will be reduced to a barrage of Executive Orders to reverse the EO’s that Biden wrote that reversed the EO’s that Trump wrote to reverse the worst of the damage that Barrack Obama created.

All of which will be reversed again in four years if the Republicans can’t hold the Presidency in 2028.  It all seems kind of futile, don’t you think?

A civil war would settle this hash once and for all, and the side that has real men and real women on it would clearly win.  But the bloodshed and destruction would be horrific.

I believe that the last chance to settle this and fix the terrible problems in our country is being decided today.  And I’ve donated to my candidate and I’ve put out banners and lawn signs and I’ve voted… in person, on election day… as God and George Washington intended.

And now I’m turning off the news and watching a movie.  Ah! “Independence Day”… perfect!  I can’t wait until it gets to the scene where the aliens blow up the White House.

Chinese student to face criminal charges for voting in Michigan. Ballot will apparently count

The 19-year-old from China was legally present in the United States but not a citizen, which meant he couldn’t legally cast a ballot, according to information from the Michigan Secretary of State’s office. He registered to vote on Sunday using his UM student identification and other documentation establishing residency in Ann Arbor, signed a document identifying himself as a U.S. citizen and his ballot was entered into a tabulator, according to the Secretary of State’s office.

Under a 2018 ballot proposal that voters approved with 67% support, people can register to vote in Michigan up to and including on Election Day. Proof of residency for voting can include a driver’s license, state identification card, a utility bill or university records, according to the Secretary of State’s website.

In her own words…I can’t make it play here, you’ll have to follow one of the links below.
