If Newsome was a republican this would absolutely be the media story and we'd hear about it endlessly for days/weeks.

Course he is a democrat so I expect this thread to be incredibly lonely.

As I and many others have been shouting from the rooftops for months the democrats will do ANYTHING to prevent Trump supporters from voting for Donald Trump. Must I really review, again, the actions taken by democrats to date to prevent a Trump reelection? So ask yourself, please, the following. If democrats, in collusion with communist China, were already willing to murder two hundred thousand plus Americans with lockdowns over a fake pandemic, what will they NOT do in the coming month to prevent our President's second term? Expect floods, fires, earthquakes, meteors, nuclear weapon detonations on US soil . . . expect anything and everything.

A very gross distortion of the facts.
ALL REGISTERED VOTERS IN CALIFORNIA HAVE BEGUN TO RECEIVE VOTE BY MAIL (V.B.M.) BALLOTS...FACT.

Each county in the State of California has set voting centers/drop boxes and for in person voting precincts will be open.....FACT.

In the State of California, any registered voter can drop off his/her Local Precinct/Drop Box/Registrar of Voters. Further, a Registered Voter can also drop off his/her ballot at any Precnct/Drop Box/Registrat of Voters in the State of California. The date on the return envelope must be filled out by Voter and the name and address of must signed by the voter. The signature in the signature block must match the signature on file at the Registrar of Voter's Office.

Drop Boxes for Ballot are set up by the Registrar of Voter's Office and that office will determine where the locations will be. When in doubt, the V.B.M. can be delivered to Registrar of Voter's in that respective county.

The Registrar of each County will make public the location of Drop Boxes in that county, as well the location of respective Voter Precincts for those Individual Registered Voters who wish to vote in person. Any vote who wants to do so can, if they wish vote in person at their respective Voting Precinct. They can bring their V.B.M. Ballot to their precinct, tell the Clerk at the table they wish to vote person. The Clerk will take that V.B.M. from the voter, tear that ballot and write "Surrender" on the ballot and then the voter will be issued a new ballot and sign the Voter Register. The Voter can use their Surrendered Ballot as a voter guide and then return the surrendered ballot to the Clerk who will place that ballot the properly designated bag for return to Registrar's Office.

Some precincts will be combined, please check the voter guide you receive in mail for the location of your precinct.

This link is deliberately distorting facts. I am a Deputy Judge for the Marin County Registrar of Voters, I know the facts as I have attended classes and served at my local polling station for over 20-Years.

At NO time was there been an attempt to restrict or suppress the vote, that is a lie.

Please Note:

1. Any person over the age of 18 on Election Day who is Registered Voter can Vote in the November Election.

2. No person, who is a Registered Voter in the State of California can be denied their Constitutionally Protected Right To Vote based on their Race, Religious Practice, Ethnic Heritage or Background, their gender or gender practice.

3. Harassment/Intimidation of Voters in California is a felony. Any person who is harassed or subjected to Voter Intimidation should report such harrassment/intimidation the Judge at the precinct and call the local law enforcement authorities.

4. Electionering within 100-Feet of a Voting Precinct is agains the law. Observers can do exactly that, but they cannot encourage a person to vote for a particular candidate. Nor is a person allowed to enter the precinct wearing clothing from a particular campaign or candidate. Use of cell phones is forbidden.

5. If you are a voter who requires assistance in voting, just ask and you will receive the assistance you require.

6. IF you are a voter who needs language assistance, just ask and that assistance will be given.

7. IF you are voter who makes a mistake on your ballot (i.e., mark the wrong candidate e.t.c), return to desk where you received your ballot and tell the Clerk. The Clerk will tear the used ballot and write "Spoiled" on it and give you a new ballot. You only three attempts to vote. IF you need help marking your ballot as a Clerk and he/she will assist you.

8. In California Poll's Open at 7:00 AM and Close at 8:00 PM. IF you in line when the polls close you can vote, running up to the door does not count.

9. Be kind to Clerks and Judges at your precinct, they are having a long day.

10. The Saturday and Sunday Before Election Day Polls will be open. You can vote early.

Have a Safe and Happy Election Day.

An edit. In the enevlope in which you receive your V.B.M. will be notice of all avaiable sites where Drop Boxes will be. There will be additonal sites added as needs arise. If you are unsure of where you drop off your ballot, call your Registrar of Voter's Office for assistance. There is no attempt to limit or suppress the vote in Califorina. Only pissed off Repubicans who could get the vote suppressed.

As I suspected. Mums the word.

As regards what? In one respect I was wrong, it is not Republicans did not V.B.M., they wanted a better procedure. After securing that procedure, the bill signed by Governor Newsom had bipartisan support.

The current precautions insure a safe voting process. People can vote in person if they wish, or they can Vote By Mail. Please remember to sign your ballot, without you signature your ballot with no be counted.

The upfront process insures security for voters and the ballots. Harassment and Intimidation are felonies. The only people not happy with Vote By Mail are the idiots who believe the lies of 45.

Newsome is allowing mail in voting so there is a major difference. You attack Newsome for allowing mail in voting. You can't have it both ways.

I'll wait....

Governor Newsom supported Statewide V.B.M. because of COVID and this is a one off election. The California Republican Party supported the legislation signed by Newsom (I admit I was wrong in my original post). This bill allows for In-Person voting if the voter so desires.

Drop Boxes are available in each county. I checked the one down by the Marin City Branch Library and it is available for ballot drop off. There will also be an In Person Precinct at the Marin City Community Services Office (which is where I have worked in the past on Election Day). Ballots can also be dropped at the Marin County Registrar of Voter's at the Marin Civic Center in San Rafael.

At no time have Democrats acted to restrict Voting in our State. The OP's question is not based on available facts. The legislation was supported by the California Democratic Party and the California Republican Party. There is no attempt to Restrict Voting nor is there active Voter Supression.

Absentee Voting in California has started and Voters will allowed to Vote In Person starting on the Saturday and Sunday before Election Day.

The legislation did not restrict or close Polling Stations. Some Polling Stations have been consolidated, but that has been an ongoing process before the 2020 Election and is NOT a fair representation of legilation is attempting to do in light of COVID.

I would also note that the report used by the OP is from a Conservative Station along the Central Coast of California and a Republican Strong Hold. The report did not include all available facts.

We.... the Conservative Republicans, don't care. We're not worried about it at all.

That's not the point the original poster is making.

The point of the entire thread, which is 100% correct.... is that if Newsome had been a Republican, and had signed a law reducing the number of polling stations.... the Democrats and left-wingers, and Socialists would be absolutely melting down right now, SCREAMING... about how this was disenfanchisement, and we were blocking minority voters, and they would have carefully scrutinized every single polling place that was closed, to determine if the ones that were closed, were in minority neighborhoods, and the ones left open were white (which I can guarantee you right now, they are), and would have been belting out blood curdling howls about racism racism racism!

But Newsome is a Democrat, so magically racism in policy is impossible.

There is no junk mail voting. Newsom is giving voters a opportunity to vote by mail unlike Trump.

He is encouraging mail in voting so he is not disenfranchising voters. Republicans are trying to do it but Newsom is not.

Because they damn well know they can't win fair elections with taxpayers, contributors to society and truly qualified voters only voting.
