We're going on almost 4 years since the Covid s hit the fan.
IT'll stay back-burnered unless the damn thing morphs into something more down the road.
One of my best friend's elderly mother is in a care facility. She's been suffering from dementia for several years and he has legal power of attorney and has had for several years. It turns out that in 2020, she voted for Joe Biden. They didn't let official registrars or witnesses into the facility due to the pandemic. Imagine that...a lifelong Republican who was on the Executive Committee for the State Republican party decided to vote for Biden in 2020 as did all but 2 people in the facility. The staff helped with the ballots...in a county that is 75% Democrat. They eventually threw out her ballot after the ballots were certified and deemed it pandemic related "clerical" error because she shouldn't have been eligible to vote anyway because of the full power of attorney. The issue was never investigated because his mother couldn't say whether she voted or not...and for who. When my friend pushed the issue, he was simply accused of attempting to "disenfranchise" voters by the Democratic controlled election board.
