    I'm speaking of everywhere. If they have your ballot you cannot vote at the polling place. If they don't then you can vote then and your mailin will not be counted or a provisional in case it doesn't show up in the time limit after, which there should none they are due on the day of the election and not later, and if it does the provisional will not be counted, depends on the particular state.

    You realize that your claiming that a person can vote by mail and then go the polling place and somehow vote again is making an argument AGAINST mail-in voting.

    Then what's the problem with a person going to the polling place and asking a worker there to verify they received it and will be counted? And if I put my ballot in the mail and I check on election day and they don't have it then what, or if they give it 2 days after the poll closes and they don't have it are you out of luck or what?

    Is it illegal to go to a polling place to confirm your vote was received? How can a person who votes by mail vote again at the polling place, your making the case to NOT have mailin voting.

    No. But it is illegal to try and vote twice.

    Because it's Billy the bag man.

    Facts First: CNN could not find an example that fits all the specifics Barr mentioned.
    In 2016, Hill County in Texas reported roughly 1,700 more votes than voters in their March GOP primary but an investigation by the Texas Attorney General's office found "that a series of negligent errors on the part of election officials caused the skewed ballot count," not fraudulent ballots like Barr suggested.

    Your turn.
    Show me where it happened. :)

    I guess they got you. :roflol:

    Russia has sought to “amplify” concerns over the integrity of U.S. elections by promoting allegations that mail-in voting will lead to widespread fraud, according to an intelligence bulletin obtained by ABC News, again echoing a frequent and unfounded complaint raised by President Donald Trump.

    Analysts with the Department of Homeland Security’s intelligence branch issued the warning on Thursday to federal and state law enforcement partners after finding with “high confidence” that “Russian malign influence actors” have targeted the absentee voting process “by spreading disinformation” since at least March.

    Oh geez. Is this Muh Rusha Clooshun 3.0 or 4.0 now, lol?

    I've lost count. Anyone with two brain cells can see mail-in-voting is risky, to say the least.

    Ask him I don't speak for him that doesn't sound like what he was talking about he wasn't AG in 2016.

    Lets repeat this again because youre not seemingly getting it.

    What Trump described is perfectly legal.

    There are numerous checks in place in North Carolina that prevent people from double voting. Electronic pollbooks with information about who has already voted are used at every early voting site. If a voter tries to check in who has already voted, they will be prevented from voting a regular ballot. A voter will be offered a provisional ballot if they insist on voting, and this ballot will be researched after Election Day to determine whether it should be counted.

    On Election Day, voters who have voted absentee are removed from the pollbook, which is updated before voting starts at 6:30 a.m. Absentee ballots that are received on Election Day are not counted until after the election, and this prevents double voting.

    Sure you can. If the mailed ballot has not been recorded on election day and you cast a provisional ballot at the polls to ensure your vote is counted. Perfectly legal. The procedure is already in place.

    AG Barr was LYING his fat ass off with that bovine excrement!

    https://edition.cnn.com/2020/09/03/...-wolf-blitzer-interview-fact-check/index.html

    Even the DOJ was FORCED to admit that it was LIE afterwards because Barr lacks the honesty and integrity to admit that he was LYING.

    My state CONFIRMED that they had received my ballot request for mail in voting. They will CONFIRM when they receive my completed ballot too.

    Mail in voting PROMOTES voter PARTICIPATION.

    States that have been using ONLY vote by mail for YEARS have had negligible issues with it.

    In essence all you have is FEARMONGERING because there are no FACTS to support your baseless allegations.

    AG Barr's LIES have all been DEBUNKED!

    PROVE that "20 percent of New Jersey's mail-in elections were plagued with fraud" with a CREDIBLE source because there is NOTHING to support that in your disinformation link.

    Of course it has been DEBUNKED, and Everybody Knows that it has been debunked.

    I still can't believe that Trump (and Barr) just keep repeating these FAKE Claims (and people keep spreading them).

    Hard to imagine.:smh:

    Haven't you caught on yet? Barr and Pompeo are the Ehrlichman and Haldeman of the trump gang. Their names will go down in infamy for enabling a crook like trump to damage our country.

    I sort of prefer Goring and Ribbentrop, given the circumstances.... Nixon is another politician whose career has been mitigated by the current criminal in the WH.

    But speaking of Barr and his idiotic comments the other day, here was Ted Lieu's official letter to the office of the Attorney General of the United States yesterday...

    I mean, I didn't know the exact statute either, but then again, I'm not the acting AG of the United States...
