States seeing a surge in #VoteByMail ballots during an election year MUST allow election officials to begin processing and counting before #ElectionDay.
Colorado has done this for multiple elections and it works.
2/ The bottleneck created by the signature and ballot verification process for #VoteByMail takes more time than traditional in-person voting because fewer resources are devoted to it.
But those votes ARE VALID AND MUST BE COUNTED.
3/ @realDonaldTrump and his cronies will claim this delay proves fraud.
It is actually the exact OPPOSITE. Carefully reviewing and verifying #VoteByMail ballots ensures that there is virtually no fraud.
2/ While my brother-in-law will not be counted among those who died from #COVID19, it certainly killed him.
He wouldn't have spent nearly two months in an ICU, dropped from 277 lbs entering the hospital to 155 lbs exiting, or required extensive rehabilitation.
3/ And he wouldn't have needed to relearn to swallow - a common challenge for anyone spending significant time on a ventilator - or aspirated Wednesday night, which blocked his airway and eventually killed him.
BREAKING: The #Wisconsin Elections Commission has recommended that @kanyewest be left OFF the ballot. The decision was made primarily because his nomination papers were turned in late.
Let's start with the fact it claims the "Kany West campaign represents a uniting, inspiring and faith-based vision that is successfully motivating disenfranchised and previously unengaged voters to participate in the political process."
