Probably going to be a lot of random police check stops tonight as well. He might be sober, but will still get hemmed up. He should probably stay wherever he is until tomorrow if possible.

I was born in 86 and wasn’t interested in politics until more recently. It is a complicated system that I still don’t fully understand. What is your opinion on mail in ballots? I didn’t vote that way, I don’t know how they look or how they are counted. If you have any insight I would appreciate it. It seems plausible to me that these could be some of the ballots you mentioned having to be inspected by a person?

That’s all I’m saying. Thank you for sharing your insight! I have learned some things I didn’t know today

I get what you are saying, it can’t go on recounting forever and a vote or two isn’t much. The fact that counts can’t ever be verified to specific numbers is scary to me, and leads me more into lacking faith in our election system

I think I understand what you are saying. My point was that when two separate counts don’t add up the same sum, most people would count again to at least try to verify the first or second count. I dunno, that’s what I would do. Maybe they should recount the ballots that changed the outcome of the original count a month ago?

Well that’s scary! I didn’t know that, and it doesn’t make sense to me. Thank you for enlightening me

If I counted 123 grapes and upon counting again I had 124 grapes, I’d have to count at least a third time, to feel confident in my count. With such a close discrepancy, I might count a total of 5 times to feel confident in the count. I know it doesn’t shed a good light on our voting systems. The damage has already been done.

I think we need to see the results of a tie breaker count.

So why would they even declare an outcome knowing it isn’t yet accurate?

I understand. The first count had an outcome, the second count had a different outcome. Would a third count have a different outcome than the second count or first count? How was the first count incorrect?

Will another recount come up with different results? I thought machines counted.

Me too! It seems like the most reliable cleanest source of power imo. We should be using the keystone pipeline to invest in nuclear plants

Reply to Water st. Downtown Boston. Were the sidewalks built this sloped intentionally or did they extensively settle? by echocomplex
It’s so that the water moves off the sidewalk and into the street where they have drainage next to the curb. The street also pitches down from the center towards the curb. Although it might not seem great when it gets really cold, when properly cleaned and salted it definitely helps in drying the sidewalk. Watch out for anything metal on the sidewalk, I’ve almost busted my ass a few times walking on metal lids in the winter!
