Oh yeah, and re: McD's. I mean, I had a job at BK in HS. How would I prove that? I don't put it on my resume. I doubt BK has records from 1990. I certainly don't have pay checks from then, or tax records. (Even worse would be my brief stint at Hechinger's. They no longer even exist!)

Going through my parents' belongings when they moved from TX to NC last year, I actually found a pay advice from my HS job at Big Star (a grocery store in GA at the time). But yeah, most people don't keep that kind of stuff.
I did disclose it on my bar application, but was never asked to substantiate my employment, thankfully - although I spent the better part of 3 years trying to prove a negative that I did not receive a speeding ticket when I got pulled over at some point in college (I regretted taking the bar and law school's advice to "over-disclose in an abundance of caution").

I currently have unclaimed funds sitting in CA that I can't claim. The address on it was one where I spent 3 weeks living with a former co-worker that let me stay in a spare room while I was apartment hunting. I never would have setup any utilities in my name there, and only received one, maybe two paychecks at that address. It is only $50, but I am not able to provide any proof that I am the proper claimant.

Big Star! We had one in walking distance as well as a Food Giant growing up. The Big Star always had the best giveaways. They would have these big bingo boards to win prizes, along with Green Stamps that my grandma collected. I believe it was Big Star that also had a horse racing game, where you would get a ticket with a horse and they would show the race on TV to see if you won. Then Food Giant had a football game with point spreads for prizes. The gambling push they put out when I was 10...

I had so much fun with my best friend working at Big Star in HS. I have very fond memories of getting the stale baguettes from the bakery, going into the produce cooler, and working on our baseball skills with spoiled lemons and oranges.
I'm sure it's been a couple things since I left, but it's now a Fresh Market.

I live in a very red area and there are a lot of Trump signs, but I am seeing more Harris signs than Biden (didn't live here during Hillary) What is interesting is there is a house I pass leaving my neighborhood that has had a Trump flag on their fence for a couple years. I noticed about a week ago it's gone. I assume it was probably stolen or blew away since I don't think anyone goes from flying the flag to not supporting him. |

Trump spending a lot of time in North Carolina has to be a good sign for Harris.

I voted early today. Good to have that taken care of, just in case I get hit by a bus or something.

The house at the main exit out of our neighborhood used to fly a huge Trump 2024 No More Bullshit flag. Like, several years ago, not in the run-up to the election this year. It's been gone for a year or more. He's technically in another subdivision than us so I don't know if their HOA made him take it down because of the profanity, or he just didn't want the hassle of being known as the village idiot. But he's got no signs up which is interesting. This is the same guy who threatened a young boy whose dog peed on his lawn. Not pooped, peed. So yeah, he fits perfectly in the Trump demographic.

If you just look at the high-quality polls it's been Harris +3 nationally basically the entire time.
Nothing matters.

Real voter fraud is in the nursing homes. We used to only have them vote if their BIMs said they were no more than mildly cognitively impaired. Now we have people coming in and helping residents with a BIMs of 0 vote. To score a zero you have to not be able to repeat back 3 words said to you immediately after, not know what year, month, or day of the week it is or even be close, and you then aren’t able to recall the three words from the start even after being given cues. I bitched about this in 2022 though too.

So it's 50/50 as to whether Trump can vote for himself?

No it’s usually volunteers. I’m pretty sure they call it the travel board that comes in and helps everyone vote at once. In practical terms everyone just has one helper at a time in order to save time rather than the two you are supposed to have. I mean it’s great for some of these people. We have some awesome people living in these homes that deserve a voice, but we also have people with profound dementia that really shouldn’t be sitting with someone and casting a ballot.

Sorry I didn't get to answer this for a while, life got busy! I wanted to read the posts you referenced more clearly, since I couldn't quite figure out what in there points to the problem you have with a path to citizenship. You say you're in favor of legal immigration, great. I suspect we have differing ideas of what that looks like, but probably not relevant immediately. The only thing I see which points to you having a problem with a path to citizenship is from your post #317: Quote:
Okay, now that I've kept that in mind, I'll call that racist. But seriously, it sounds like you advocate for a policy of "open it up" -- given that you have that philosophy, why does it even matter who's legal and who's illegal? And if you're saying "open it up, but none of them get citizenship" how is that not racist to say "you can live in MY country, but not actually be a part of it?" Before you get all defensive, keep in mind that your family probably came here from somewhere. And yes, I support citizenship for whoever wants it.

I'm not trying to be difficult, but is that actually fraud? If people are telling who to vote for, that's an obvious thing. But in terms of people not being mentally capable of voting intelligently or what-have-you, I don't think that's fraud unless there's something I don't understand. |

Legally? Probably not. Though I'm not completely sure. Seniors can legally vote, even with dementia. There is no competency requirement. The question is, can someone really help someone vote when that person couldn't possibly know who they are voting for? Is that help or is someone helping themselves to a free extra vote?

Gotta wonder how many people are waiting to pull the plug until after the election. It’s certainly not zero.

Depends on your definition I guess. But I honestly don’t know how someone that isn’t capable of filling out a food menu with the help of a nurses aide is capable of filling out a ballot with the help of a volunteer.

I don't know if anything is "moving the needle" this late in the game, but I found this interesting from the Bulwark:

Also, Aileen Cannon is on Trump's shortlist for AG. LOL?

This is related to the senior voter fraud conversation. For all of us that are caring for elderly parents especially those with various stages of dementia, this is a terrifying article.
Political fundraisers WinRed and ActBlue are taking millions of dollars in donations from elderly dementia patients to fuel their campaigns
