People celebrate Joe Biden's lead outside of the Philadelphia Convention Center as the counting of ballots continues in the state on November 06, 2020 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.Once again, Pennsylvania played a critical role in the presidential race, as it did in 2016.
Four years ago, my state was thrust into the national spotlight when it became one of the key swing states that showed President Donald Trump would achieve a victory by the slimmest of margins. And it wasn't just the state that got a lot of attention. My county specifically was singled out, as Trump– a surprising feat, considering it had long been a Democratic stronghold.
For those of us who have watched in horror and sadness at the damage Trump inflicted on our country and despaired about our loved ones'We felt remorseful, wishing we had done more to encourage voter enthusiasm and participation on behalf of Hillary Clinton or tried harder to help those who had become enamored by Trump during that first campaign to see how destructive his presidency could be.
bobbidempsey As long as there is mail in voting, no one will ever trust the election process again. Easy and convenient also means it’s easy to tamper with.
bobbidempsey good
bobbidempsey And it shouldn’t be like that to begin with. Why should a handful of states dictate the rest of the country’s direction when it comes to voting for the “country’s” leadership? AbolishTheElectoralCollege
bobbidempsey Black Loafers Matter will riot in the streets regardless of outcome. High comedy.
bobbidempsey Your electoral system is seriously flawed. You need National Standards. Grateful every day for Elections Canada. 🇨🇦
