I received my absentee ballot today and had to chuckle. There was a notice that Booker had dropped out so any votes cast for him would not count. There’s still 10 or so names on the list. That seems like a lifetime ago.

Last night I had a dream I was attending a friends wedding and their photographer didn’t show; Liz was walking by (in formal wear even though she wasn’t a guest) and was like “I’ll do it!” and it was epic and amazing.
And this, ladies, is why you don’t drink before bed 😂

For real though, for being a registered Democrat in a swing state I am seeing almost zero on Biden. Where is he? What kind of ground game is this?

Cuomo is signing an EO to mail all NYers absentee ballots so they can vote that way and avoid voting in person to maintain social distancing. Our election was already postponed by two months, but this is nice given NY has such restrictive voting practices.

The article I read didn't specify. I wondered that too. I'm sure that information exists somewhere

Damned paywall. Does it say polls indicate we want Kamala? Please say it does.

It sounds like NY has some kind of rule where the state party can decide to hold elections or not. It was cancelled by the state democratic party, apparently. I don't know, but it really bums me out. It sucks enough that it feels like we get no say in presidential primaries since by the time our primary rolls around we're lucky if we still have two candidates to vote between. But now we just get none.

I get it. I mean, I didn’t want to vote in a pandemic and I can see why it’s definitely not safe at all. But there has to be a better way. I thought they were going to try to go all absentee voting?
Also, I feel like asshole Republicans that block measures like that should have to go vote in their precinct while I cough on them. It’s only fair.

So yeah, like, just put it on there..? It's pretty disheartening.

Sorry about your primary. And sorry about what the Bernie Bros will probably make of that decision 😬
