Pedestrians walk on a nearly-empty Alki Beach in Seattle Monday, March 23, 2020.

I apologize for this brief diary, but thought that the information was important enough warrant timeliness, rather than wordiness.

If there is another and more complete diary on this subject already published, please let me know in the comments and I will take this one down.

Thank you and stay safe !

Diarist note: “I saw this on DU and I haven’t seen any other diaries on this subject. If there are, please let me know and I’ll be happy to take this one down. Thank you !”

Crossposting a thread from the Virginia Group. **this is important**

Thanks to DU'r ehrnst for starting that thread. I have been alerted by friends in Stafford that there are shenanigans going on and while I posted there, I wanted to bring it to GD for more eyes to see.

https://www.democraticunderground.com/10814469 is the thread.

I posted there this information:

There is a SERIOUS PROBLEM RIGHT NOW:

Per a friend in the city:

Stafford County Registrar Greg Riddlemoser has thrown out over 1000 absentee ballots on a technicality. He has also refused to release the names of provisional voters in defiance of the State Board of Elections order.

Washington Post has been contacted as has NBC4.

I personally reached out to Dave Wasserman at the Cook Political Report and Benjamin Tribbet -- both of whom were intrumental in making sure Herring's recount was done properly a few years ago.

If anyone knows of a lawyer, let's get a judge to clear this up!

As I was driving home from work this afternoon and listening to KTPK AM1090, I heard of this latest Republicon effort at voter suppression in advance of next year's elections. Inactive voters; in other words, those who didn't cast ballots in 2010, would not be mailed ballots but would instead have to go to the county clerk's office or polling place to get their ballots by the directive of Colorado Secretary of State Scott Gessler. Any voters so affected would be out of luck. Including men and women in the armed forces.

More below the Orange Squiggle.

It always begins in the same fashion: "This is my first diary, please go easy on me."

And so I make obeisance to tradition.

This is my first diary, please go easy on me.

It's teh silly season, the dog days of August; whatever the hell we agree to call it, the stresses of change on our national stage are slowing driving us barking howling-at-the-moon mad....
