But here is real news and not good: Broward County missed the deadline by 2 minutes. They did not get it uploaded correctly in time. All those efforts wasted.
Meanwhile, Miami-Dade is hand recounting and their deadline is Sunday,

Signatures change over time and also due to stroke, arthritis, injury, many problems. Signatures rejected are proportionally higher in areas where people of color vote.
From the Washington Post article:
Democrats noted that most rejected ballots come from communities of color, which tend to vote Democratic. They say that is why Republicans favor strict signature laws despite no widespread evidence of voter fraud. Kemp, for instance, fought the court decision in Georgia.
“They are not effective anti-fraud measures,” said Democratic lawyer Marc Elias, who is leading some of the litigation in Florida this week. “They are disenfranchisement measures. There is nothing in the Constitution that qualifies the right to vote with a consistent signature.”
Wanting all that data of foreigners travelling, but when it comes to your own elections....
Also, each state makes their own rules for voter registration. It is a murky mess. Of course this should have been cleansed, dealt with on a national basis after the 2000 debacle (again Florida! "hanging chads" and mail in ballots never counted, etc.) - but it was not done at all. When one party (GOP) benefits from all the gerrymandering and obstacles put to minorities and others to keep them from voting (because most vote Democrat, based on the past history) ... it is nowhere near resolved. This should have been a federal priority to put pressure on each state to clean up, improve their voting requirements. So yes, there is real uncertainty about results more than just a couple of times.

And I'll finish here with a rather keen observation about people who continue to rally around Trump (not his small core who go to the rallies), especially those in the GOP and celebrities:
This is nice to see. And I'll bid you adieu to enjoy the rest of your weekend now ...

Didn't hear anyone mention the lack of raking as a possible reason for the Swedish forest fires during the summer either!

Awkward…
Clueless indeed. A big bully too.
Come on! He is rich! So he has to be intelligent, right?
Yes, but... in all honesty, I think some form of senile dementia is setting in. Just one more reason he needs to be removed from office, the sooner the better!
