Joe Biden's campaign released ad on YouTube last week featuring bar owner Joe Malcoun who is co-owner of The Blind Pig, a popular Ann Arbor concert venue. In the ad, Malcoun blames Trump for widespread bar and restaurant closures saying Trump's handling of COVID-19 forced bar owners to close businesses. But ad doesn't mention Malcoun is also wealthy 'angel investor' in tech startups, and his social media shows his support for lockdown measures imposed by Governor Gretchen Whitmer - a Democrat who actually prolonged bar closures. After Malcoun's wealth was revealed, Biden campaign pulled ad from YouTube.

Really good "no spin" interview with Republican strategist Ryan Tyson who forecasts a Trump victory in spite of the flawed Biden polls (poor turnout models, shy Trump voters, etc.) He doesn't think Biden will be able to turn out enough of his voters because while they are driven by their hate for Trump; our side hates the left just as much. But the turnout advantage goes to the candidate who is loved by his supporters and that's Trump. https://stpetecatalyst.com/political-party-with-adam-smith-will-the-polls-tell-the-tale/

North Carolina can accept absentee ballots that are postmarked by Election Day for more than a week afterward, a federal appeals court ruled Tuesday. The 4th Circuit Court of Appeals declined to block an extension for accepting the ballots that was announced in late September. The State Board of Elections decided then that absentee ballots could be accepted until Nov. 12 as long as they were mailed by Election Day, lengthening the timeframe from three to nine days. The change was made as part of a legal settlement with voting rights advocates.

On Hannity tonight: Robert Cahaly (Trafalgar) addressed the shy Trump voter and efforts they make to find anonymous ways for them to disclose who they are voting for and has been "doing a lot of digging around looking at these 'low propensity voters' and they are clearly in favor of Trump. And these are people who have only voted once or twice in the last 20 years and we see a strong enthusiasm for them to turn out and they are not being measured." "I've said for a while I see the President winning with a minimum of high 270's...

In the country, there are different things that you care about as your top issues. We talk to miners in the Iron Range who are in unions who typically endorse democratic candidates—but not in 2020. See why they're supporting President Trump

Bevan Cooney, the former business associate of former Vice President Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden who flipped on the Biden family, has been moved from his cell, sources familiar with the matter confirmed to Breitbart News. On Tuesday, several days after emails Cooney provided to Breitbart News senior contributor Peter Schweizer and journalist Matthew Tyrmand became public, federal agents moved him from his cell to protect him. Tyrmand, who is in contact with members of Cooney’s family, told Breitbart News that Cooney was moved from his cell in a federal prison in Oregon around 11:00 a.m. local time on Tuesday....

Picture it: You're ninety-five years old. You put your life on the line and served your country. You bleed red, white and blue and revere the voting process. But your nursing home confiscated your ballot, your voter registration card and won't give them back. If you get upset, they sedate you. That's exactly what's happening in care homes across the country and it stinks to High Heaven. Thankfully, @lemonmaid3 is raising awareness in her Twitter thread. (Sorry for the excerpt but most of this article is Twitter screenshots which I can't include here.)

Hearing that Bevan Cooney has just been removed from the federal facility in Oregon that he has been detained in since last year.

watch this hilarious video of pro-Trump demonstrators show up at a Harris rally with flags, signs, horns, and whistles. The Harris rally had not been publicly ennounced, there was only about 20 cars.

What are the penalties for voter fraud? What should they be? My search of the internet came up with a confusing conglomeration that was hard to sort out and follow. States vary with laws and enforcement, and I think there is another designation specific for federal elections. Do any Freepers have a clear understanding of this? Seems there aren't that many convictions for voter fraud, and penalties for those few convictions are light. This is a big issue. There should be a severe enough penalty that would make people think twice before committing this crime. If Congress could get serious...

Once you have cast your ballot, list your username and state.

There are two schools of thought for voters driving this election; voters who believe America is good and voters who believe America is bad.

Kirstie Alley has doubled down on her support for President Donald Trump, accusing his rival Joe Biden of making 'pretty constant' racial slurs. In an interview Monday night with Fox News' Sean Hannity, the 69 yr. old actress laughed off the criticism since her Saturday night tweet declaring she was voting for Trump. She also slammed Democratic nominee Joe Biden, and suggested he might be racist. 'When your gaffes are constantly - when he said, you know, 'you ain't black if you're not voting for me,' and you know these constant gaffes that have these actual racist overtones,' Alley said....

Gov. Phil Murphy signed a first-in-the nation bill Monday reducing sentences in a prison system with the highest coronavirus death rate in the country — a move that will release at least 2,000 inmates beginning next month.

Rapper 50 Cent has endorsed Donald Trump for president because of his favorable tax policies for the rich - and said he doesn't care if the Republican 'doesn’t like black people'. The 45 yr. old tweeted a shot of the tax rates proposed by Democratic candidate Joe Biden and running mate Kamala Harris. Biden's proposals could see those earning more than $400K a year hit with rates of 62.6 % for California residents, and 62 % for people who live in NYC. The rapper wrote: 'WHAT THE F***! (VOTE ForTRUMP) IM OUT. F*** NEW YORK The KNICKS never win anyway.'...

Gaggle is currently used in hundreds of districts across the U.S., relying on artificial intelligence and a team of moderators paid as little as $10 an hour to scan billions of student emails, chat messages and files each year in search of references to sex, drugs and violence.

DURHAM, N.C. — More than half of the nearly 1.4 million absentee ballots requested in North Carolina remain outstanding with 15 days left until Election Day. Mailed ballots must be postmarked by Nov. 3 and received by county election officials by Nov. 6 to count. So, with time running short to get those ballots in, WRAL Investigates again put the U.S. Postal Service to the test to see how long it takes "ballots" mailed from different parts of Durham and Cumberland counties to get to a central location in each county.

https://www.wnd.com/2020/10/gallup-gop-overtakes-dems-party-affiliation/ From Robert Barnes: Gallup's question about self identifying political affiliation is an interesting historical indicator of election outcome that has been consistently accurate. The gap between D and R widens leading up to an election where the democrat wins and narrows going into an election when the republican wins. He believes that it is actually an enthusiasm indicator. It has recently undergone a major shift resulting in the closest gap since 2004. Strong sign it is going to be a Republican election.
