        If YOUR ballot were discarded, you'd be singing a different tune.
        The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

          Perhaps you should watch this very helpful educational video to see how laws are really made in the US....

                Again - reputable news sources are saying "no problems" and the blog/conspiracy sources are screaming problems. I tend to lean to reputable news sources.

                In other words, Rogue - you appear to be stuck on "fake news"

                  The rest of the nonsense is no more than the standard Trump inspired conspiracy theories. No surprise there.
                  That was one judge in one county at one single moment in time. As I posted earlier they actually made two arrests in Dade country of verified voter fraud. And every single election it seems Broward and Dade County always have problems with ballots, losing them, finding them, miscounting them, hanging chads, or some other excuse.

                    Oh horsehocky -- I bet only ONE of us has ever MAILED IN a military ballot AND counted some - and it's not you. Aren't you the nutter who claimed I was paranoid and had an actual panic room in my house?

                      Simply not true. Most military ballots are delivered prior to the election.

                        Why? Considering there is only 1 FEDERAL election.

                          Hmm... I presume you mean the presidential. But aren't the elections to the U.S. Congress considered "federal elections?"

                            Correct.

                            No. They are elections to select your state's congressional representatives. Their office is only for your state.
