Whether you buy this argument or not, the creepiness of post-election ballot-curing campaigns is yet another aspect of the still-unfolding corrosive effect of mail-in voting.

Pretty much anybody can get themselves to the polls, no matter how much money on one side or the other. But not anybody has the cash to wage a selective campaign to change the score after the game is played. Seems like this should be done even-handedly by election officials.

There’s something a bit creepy about coming in with big money and correcting only Democratic ballots, no? It’s one thing to pay to get your voters to the polls. It seems like another to pay to have only your side’s votes counted. https://t.co/JWSmDhUZCQ

It looks like opponents of Newsom’s big mental health bond have come to their senses and unconceded, as Newsom wages desperate and expensive effort to “cure” rejected ballots–just Democratic ballots! https://t.co/Jiwod7j53K https://t.co/89N6p3cCiu

Very useful if-you-read-one-article article. Turns out there is a whole lot Biden *could* do without new legislation. (I didn’t know about “G-Verify.”) https://t.co/5b22YzMcSK

Isn’t everyone ignoring how Trump could most easily serve (in effect) a third term–by running a figurehead candidate who would let him keep running the government? Seems legal. And it has worked before elsewhere: The Lurleen Medvedev strategy. https://t.co/77858wjZZo

CA Gov. Newsom’s signature mental health bond measure is only ahead by 20,000 votes–with 25 days of counting left. https://t.co/G6R6QCiW92 That’s less than a .1% difference. So why have opponents conceded? https://t.co/ES76QpFIpY

I actually listened to Kerry on @NPR the other day, and it was a shock. I don’t like him, he was talking about a dreary subject (global warming) and yet was way more entertaining and intelligent and subtle than Biden (at least the public Biden). https://t.co/hqC4jbssDN

Most troubling aspect: Biden thinks his record is a lot more FDR-like than it actually is (“policy achievements that eluded past presidents”). Maybe if his industrial policy (eg CHIPS) pans out. Past presidents have done infrastructure. https://t.co/Zskc5OMZlt

Obamacare–there was an achievement that had eluded past presidents. It was a BFD–and still not as big a BFD as Medicare (LBJ) or welfare reform (Clinton). Nothing Biden’s done is such a BFD. Problem is not “communications strategies” about his fabulous success. https://t.co/igzNBrwpKh
