Michelle Obama urges Americans to vote early, by mail
The Hill ^ | 08 11 2020 | Rebecca Klar

Posted on 08/11/2020 10:17:21 AM PDT by yesthatjallen

Former first lady Michelle Obama urged Americans to vote by mail or vote early ahead of the approaching November elections amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Obama called on Americans to make sure they and those around them are registered to vote and are educated on their options for early voting or voting by mail. Her message was part of a video message released Tuesday by When We All Vote, an organization the former first lady helped launch in 2018 to boost participation in elections.

“Fair and safe voting is gonna be more important than ever this year, and that’s why When We All Vote is fighting to expand vote-by-mail, in-person early voting and online voter registration,” she said.

Obama also called on Americans to “just spread the word.”

“Make sure your friends, families and communities are registered, know their rights and are fully prepared to vote by mail this year or vote early in person,” she said.

“Let’s get more folks across the country trained with the tools, the resources and the information they’ll need to vote, because this election couldn’t be more important,” she added.

“...and if you are a Republican, write that on the outside of your ballot envelope so we can throw those in in shredder bin...”

Aside from the fear of the debates, what else is driving these people so hysterical?

October surprise?

Durham?

What?

These people have emptied their clips on Trump and they’re out of ammo. But Biden? He is on the tee

Early voting should be illegal.

A lot of Democrats are too lazy to vote by mail. It not a win for them anyway since 25% of the ballots will be lost. I am going to the polls as are most Republicans.

She’s in the news. It’s her. She’s going to be the Vice Presidential nominee. It just makes sense.

Yeah! Hurry up and vote before you see that Joe Biden is a living vegetable. Because once Oatmeal Joe hobbles out of his basement and starts publicly yelling at clouds every sane person will freak out.

I propose that any further stories about or concerning Michelle Obama include the following: “Angry Black Lady Alert”

In fact, we should have a list of Angry Black Ladies. Maxine Waters, Michelle Obama, Sheila Jackson Lee, pretty much all BLM black females, etc

Why is it important to “vote early”? What is the advantage?

I can think of two things:

1) The Democrats need to know how many votes they will get from the People, so that they can calculate how many votes they will have to manufacture.
2) The Democrats are afraid that an October surprise will horrify potential voters and they need to get their votes early because they sure won’t be getting many votes at the end.

3) Vote early so that they can gum up the Postal Service right before election day so only their votes will be counted.
