You'll get no argument from me. Not to pick on Texas---but the "rule" of only one drop box per county just might have won the dumb ass of the election stunt to limit voting.
An unrelated story that has come to my mind as I try to follow the twists and turns of this election takes me back to 2000. I had voted for GWB via absentee ballot and found myself in Germany on election day. That night---and 6 hours ahead I spent the entire night watching the returns---which for me began at midnight---and by morning I didn't know anything more than I did the night before----and I wasn't to find out who won until the SCOTUS "voted". I'm about as sleep deprived with this one as I was in 2000.
