I've never experienced such a thing, but when I do, I'll be ready.

Looks like they're trying to claim mail in ballots are invalid

for no other reason than, of course, the fact that they don't like them.

Shocking. Who could possibly have seen this coming from the party of maturity and good will?

If you cannot attend an in-person event, call everybody.

So... regarding the counting there's a NYC protest Saturday at Columbus Circle

(There are also several in Brooklyn that are out of the question anyway.)

I feel strongly enough that I'd be willing to attend an in-person demonstration about the urgent need to count every single damn vote, but... Columbus Circle is a lot of train riding. City Hall is more manageable, I can practically walk there (except the part on the boat, but I'm not scared of sitting on the Ferry, I can always sit outside), maybe on Friday or Sunday so as to not conflict with the existing protest Saturday.

I'm considering putting that up there but... I don't want to be the only person at a protest I "organized". Anybody willing to go to guarantee there'd be at least one other person, and if so, which day and time?

The other option, of course, would be on the Island at the boat.

Advantage: Definitely nobody on the Island is doing this, and I might be able to co-opt one or more of my neighbors. Possibly Jackson's Dad - honestly, I'd know his name if he didn't live on the other side of T____ Street. Our little street is so very little, but once you cross T_____ it's like an entirely different neighborhood. The two halves of the block don't mix. But I digress. He's got several Biden signs that are still up, so I figure he's gotta be a cinch.
