The election is in two months. I applied to have my Georgia ballot sent to me via E-mail. According to the My Voter page, the damn thing has not been sent yet. Once I receie it, then I have to print it, the affidavit, the cover sheet, mark the ballot, assemble the stuff in a super-special way, and then send it in the mail (I’ll be using EMS). There’s a good possibility the ballot will not arrive in time because of that. The closer it is to the election before the damn thing is E-mailed, the higher that possibility is.
I despise the Republican party.

Yeah, I had a car like that once.

Even more ridiculous than that.
It’s about 70% larger by land area, actually. With nearly 5 times the population of Rhode Island.
