30 days left until the election (#4264)

     30 days in the hole more appropriately. Like being banned off Facebook for 30 days or like actually singing along to the song by Humble Pie. Either way 30 days will blow by in a bat of an eye. Tomorrow we here in California officially begin to receive our ballots but some have already gotten theirs. Which is great in my viewpoint. We here in California should have updated our election laws this past legislative term to increase our early voting days to at least 40 instead of 29. Given that we have the largest state by state electorate and our official count usually takes about 14 days after the election to be finalized it would have been nice to have a more updated set of rules to tabulate our early votes.
     Yet it is what it is and we will likely be all over the count given the significance of getting our vote out there for the rest of the nation to know. That trump is sidelined due to his own ineptitude and arrogance is not a concern for we democrats. I am okay with Joe Biden not running negative ads against trump for a period of time because now we get to see ads that focus on our policies for we the working middle poor class. Which is how political campaigns should be run anyway. Attacking our personal lives is not a measure of the needs we have out here in the real world of our society.
     Regardless of all of that though getting our votes in and secure is our number one priority. I say that because in my heart, mind, and soul I know we the many will blue wave the vote beyond anything trump can muster. So getting those votes into the final count everywhere as quickly as possible is paramount. We the many have much to lose if we all aren't laser focused on our duty to make sure we are counted. Just like with the census, we have to be counted. 30 days left until the election is just a moment in time and for all those who haven't made a plan yet to vote as soon as possible, I say do it now and then get your vote in because when the history of this time is written it will shine gloriously on those of us who fought back against the forces that would have destroyed our democracy. You want your name written in amongst those of us who cared for all of us and saved our democracy.
