I hope he keeps getting flooded with those comments even on his subsequent videos which Iām sure will never acknowledge this one.

I was really hoping the voter intimidation Paxton attempted backfires in an epic way. Looks like my hopes may come true.
thereās been chatter for years about large blocks of Latino and Latina voters going over to the GOP. Not sure if that is exaggeration, but at least some have. In part because the state-level Democrats elected to where they live canāt get anything the community needs accomplished. This is because our legs is stacked with GOP and MAGA due to gerrymandering and voter suppression. I hope those people understand now that the GOP will never represent their interests. Will never value our Latino and Latina citizens.

So maddening. Every single piece of mail in the country gets stamped as a matter of course indicating when it was received and processed by the Post Office. If youāre not going to trust an actual Federal agency to tell you when something was mailed why would you believe a handwritten date provided by the voter??

Iāve received mail from businesses and non-profits that was not stamped. Those prepaid envelopes with an imprint have no postmark. So the recipient can try to guess when it was mailed (if the content includes a date), but thereās no way to confirm it. 
Not sure if ballots are treated as a special case by the USPS, but Iām hoping similar challenges donāt come up in other states:

In Pennsylvania we also have drop boxes (as pictured in the article). Those are not managed by USPS, but by county election officials. I use those exclusively, because the USPS is too slow. Ballots placed in a drop box are picked up and processed the same day.

I have a feeling that this administration wonāt just roll over the way Gore did in the face of electoral fuckery. Maybe Iām a Pollyanna, though.

Fingers crossed. I too sense that theyāre more prepared. I think I read somewhere that in some ways at least, they are, but I canāt recall where that was in the past few weeksā stream of newsie bits.

I donāt think the administration will roll over, but the more there is to disrupt the election, the more of a problem the fascists who refuse to accept the result will be afterward. They need to be shut down a lot harder than they have been so far.

Yeah, Iām not saying this stuff isnāt a problem - itās making me very nervous - but ultimately I feel like Harris et al are more than likely up to the task. There are lawyers champing at the bit to hit the ground. Itās comforting to me that Biden will still be President for nearly 2.5 months in case of fuckery. And heās got a lot of wiggle room now to do what needs to be done.

And most of all, what they wanted to hear ā and didnāt ā was the fine print.
Here you go. Took me all of 5 seconds to find, and Iām not even American.
Thatās why party platforms exist. You canāt put complicated concepts like that into a speech, and definitely not into a debate.
My suggestion for a translation would be āfactio republicana delenda est eatā
