Skydiving may not be a thing for you these days, but for 40,000 USPA members it is. Besides, after tomorrow the "real election" will be over. The USPA election goes on through the end of the month.

I voted for Melissa Lowe. She will help stop the USPA BOD from wasting anymore USPA Members money on the failed building of the International Skydiving Museum building. This is NOT about the "skydiving hall of fame", it's about a building that has no location or plan and no money, other then USPA Members. Our USPA money would be more productively invested in Airport Access and the USA Team's.

It's not a democracy when a citizen in Wyoming has 40x the amount of clout as a voter in California. It's not a democracy when voters in only a handful of swing states determine who the president will be. The system was set up explicitly to protect the interests of slaveowners some 240 years ago.

...I hope it's not close.

Oh sure, your comments have appeared so bipartisan.

er... the GOP would have to step up gerrymandering, lawsuits, courts stacking, etc. "In Pennsylvania, Democratic candidates took 51 percent of the vote across the state’s 18 districts, but only five of the seats. In Wang’s model, the odds against Democrats emerging at an eight-seat disadvantage are 1,000-to-1. And Pennsylvania was not alone. According to the Election Consortium analysis, gerrymandering helped Republicans secure 13 seats in just six states – including Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Virginia and North Carolina – that, under normal rules of engagement, Democrats would have won." trump Supporters airdvr and turtlespeed go to heaven St. Peter greets them at the Pearly gates and asks if there is anything in the universe they'd like to know before meeting God. The fist guy asks, "What was really in Hillary's emails?" "Nothing incriminating really", replies St. Peter. turtlespeed turns and whispers, "Wow, this goes higher than we thought."

Obama! Are you new?

It was just a fluke.

Why are Trump supporters usually first to the ballot box? Because they’re always Russian

Which is why he must be hammered flat by the courts post election.

Don’t worry, it’s irrelevant. Won’t hit central Pennsylvania. Wendy P.

Let's have them. Which ones do you suggest show Biden is a white supremacist?

The Trumpists have convinced me. I'm NOT voting for Hillary or for Hunter.

Ron, A Trump supporter dies and goes to the pearly gates… There he sees St Peter and gets excited and walks towards the pearly gates. St. Peter says, "I want you to know, on the whole you were a good person, that's why you're going in. But we almost had to send you to hell because you voted for Trump." "What do you mean? Trump is the best president ever and a devout Christian!" St. Peter snorts and says, "He's nothing of the sort. He's vain, greedy, an adulterer, racist, and corrupt. As soon as he dies we're sending him straight to hell." The Trump supporter shakes his head, his eyes wide and mutters unhappily, "Oh my gosh. I didn't realize the deep state went this far!"

Well, wasn't it McConnell who said something to the effect of 'our primary objective is to stop anything Obama wants, even if it hurts the country'? That's not something that was 'filtered' by the news outlets, the actual quote from McConnell is readily available. Wasn't it McConnell who sat on hundreds of bills that the D controlled house passed? The Ds passed the bills, and then sent them to the Senate (which is how it's supposed to work) and then they just sat there. Like Garland's appointment, McConnell refused to schedule hearings for them. (that's NOT how it's supposed to work). To pretend that the lack of bipartisanship is a bipartisan issue is a pretty solid example of 'both-siderism'.

Hi heels, I was talking to my son about this very thing. No rush; never has been a rush. Unless you are a national news network. Jerry Baumchen

Just imagine if those were the Democrats, shutting down absentee ballots when the veterans' ballots haven't been received and/or counted yet. Wendy P.

Whatever happens it will be interesting. We'll hear plenty about illegal voting, lost ballots, and whatever else the losing side can come up with. If Trump wins that will tell us something about the validity of polls. If Biden wins that tells us other things. Both sides will list a whole bunch of excuses or reasons for what happens. It will be interesting to see the reaction in certain foreign countries, if any is allowed by the government. I may be dreaming but whatever happens I hope the political infighting will decrease and the government will get focused on writing a comprehensive healthcare bill that works, addressing homelessness, economic stability, jobs, and other things that are important.

Tough choice: an intelligent, articulate, accomplished woman, or an elf on a shelf.

This! What na incredibly fucked up system that allows for this to happen. Inhumane by every measure.

What, you mean downplaying it, lying about it, ignoring it, blaming others isn't the way to a landslide re-election? Quick, someone tell Trump!
