I cant get the dmv to answer the fone lol
I was asked to mail a letter from grand forks nd to fargo nd.That letter never showed up.Yes mr trump has cause for concern
As someone who has health issues it would not be safe for me to go to a polling station to vote. We have been talking about mail in votes for months so my question for our president is why has he done nothing to prepare for it? Instead of standing at a podium talking about all the things that could go wrong, why hasn't he put a team together to make sure it goes well? I want to know why nobody has asked him that.
Thank you Neil for highlighting this topic! 😊
The farther we get from voter id's, the closer we are to having the hammer and sickle on our flag. Stop being communist and be American!
Says the guy standing outside with no mask or fear ?! Go vote , you liberals will not steal this election !
The USPS is $160.9 BILLION in debt from what it owes in retiree benefits, see the Washington Post article from 4-15-20. The USPS lost $8.8 BILLION in fiscal year 2019 alone, the 13th consecutive year of losing money.
Jeff Bezos, a billionaire and owner of Amazon (and the Washington Post), uses the USPS to deliver packages at low rates.
You need to really learn how to do some better research. Over 250,000 ballots go missing every year. Go gaslight someone else with your spin and learn the facts for your viewers.
