Preventing human rights abuses are authoritarian!

Ironic...


I'm confused, in what capacity are we talking about human rights abuses?

Mail is delivered everyday. Not every three days.

The USPS is a public utility more then a business and should act in a capacity that allows for a quick election count.


Except for Sundays, holidays, etc.

Their job is to deliver mail, not run an election. There's no reason they ought to be prioritizing standard rate mail over any other standard rate mail.


That's why I specified weekdays. But thanks for that. You tried.

Actually, delivering ballots is covered by "delivering mail". The election is run by every states SOS, even if it is primarily done by mail. So your're wrong again. And yes, the USPS can be used and has been used as a tool for elections forever. Including in many states like Colorado. So try again, it already operated in that capacity before, now Republicans are trying to sabotage it.

But again, your motives are bad, as you've already admitted. So you're fine with being wrong.

So? You certainly think anyone who disagrees with you is a monster who hates democracy, fun and a traitor.

Funny he said "human rights abuses". Belarus's leader has violated human rights for years and has actively rigged elections against his opponents. Telconi supports this very thing.

Ironic...

You didn't, "everyday" is literally in your post.

Yes, delivering ballots is delivering mail. And? Did the USPS say they wouldn't deliver ballots?

Oh, no, I very much dislike being wrong.

It's not merely bait, my good CTOAN. I live in an area where Tel's line of thought is commonplace among people.

My original post specifies "three weekdays" and yes it took three weekdays. No holidays either. Not to mention, we didn't even get regular mail.

They have acted for years to have clean, fair, and expedient ballot deliveries. And have helped carried elections in many mail-in voting states. So you were wrong when you said it wasn't part of their job. In fact, it has been for years. And new rules have made said process harder. Even USPS workers have spoke up.

Apparently not. I guess unparalleled dislike for people who disagree with you can cause an illogical thought process. Who would of thought?

Good faith? Not really, no. But you and I have both been around here long enough to know when even those in bad faith are being honest.

Not sure what difference that's supposed to make, but now we're in the trap where bitching about someone who drags the thread is in itself a drag, so if you cats want to dry hump Telconi and think that will not just be doing donuts, knock yourselves out.

Fair enough...let's see what we've got news wise....

Well, Trump narrowed his convention speech locale to either the South Lawn or Gettysburg: https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-convention-speech-white-house-gettysburg

Well we shouldn't be surprised: the USPS has been strapped of cash. Not only that, we do have an administration suspected of rigging system in their favor- by making it as difficult as possible to vote. If Republicans lose in spite of this, I can guarantee you that Democrats will seek political vengeance; we may very well see some people going to prison.



Not necessarily: they can try to cheat, which may/may not be successful. I'm convinced they won't be as successful as they think they will be. Simply put it, if they cheat and fail and get caught, the GOP will royally suffer.


What real reason is there to avoid cheating, or at least attempting to cheat?


Why'd you even come back if you're going to make even poorer quality lies? C'mon, man.

So cheating in an election is not a human rights abuse?

Fine, how about "how limited government, freedom of speech, and freedom of association of you."

Because those three things are inextricably tied to open and honest elections.

*shrug* Reasonable limitations on freedoms are a necessary part of any society.
