    Today, Friday Sept 6, North Carolina started sending out their mail-in ballots. https://www.newsweek.com/how-kamala-harris-could-win-north-carolina-first-ballots-are-mailed-out-1948902

    BTW, the eagle’s name is Fiddy. He lives around the block from me in Raleigh. The picture was taken when Fiddy was about to deposit his ballot, I asked him to pose for the meme. Fiddy says he doesn’t eat rodents because “that’s cat food,” but I’m pretty sure I saw him catch a huge rat in the alley behind my house, and he just acts like that never happened.

    But he voted early so mad props to Fiddy.

      Today, Friday Sept 6, North Carolina started sending out their mail-in ballots

      Still not true…

      Democrats are hoping that Vice President Kamala Harris will flip North Carolina in this year’s presidential election as a court order delayed the Tar Heel State from mailing out its first 2024 ballots.

      A plan to begin sending out mail-in absentee ballots was interrupted on Friday by a North Carolina appeals court judge ordering election officials to update the already-printed ballots to remove independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as an option

      But at least you’re not telling people the wrong election dates.

      Still disappointing so many people just blindly listen to you.

        The schedule for N.C. was to begin sending out mail ballots this Friday. I learned this fact from listening to NPR and made the meme planning for this day. Today apparently there is some temporary delay due to some RFK.jr nonsense, but N.C. is going to continue with the election, it’s not like RFK.jr can stop us from voting.

        You are taking some pedantic position to call my post “misinformation”. There is little being added by your comments. While my comments and posts are getting deleted without regard, and I’m still waiting for an apology for mods deleting my last post and messing with my comments here.

        WTF is up with the moderation in this place. Let’s see how long it takes for this comment to get deleted too.

          Your source literally started out by saying it’s not happening…

          This election is important man, just take a second before posting to vet what you’re saying. It honestly seems like you have good intentions, but that’s not enough bro.

          You need to make sure what you’re saying is factual. Even people making innocent mistakes can cause issues down the line. Just added confusion about the voting process has been shown to depress turnout.

            Are you the mod here messing with my account? because I want to file a formal complaint with whatever the systems are on this platform. It’s one thing to correct people or ask for clarification or edits, it’s another to start nuking people’s posts and comments without asking and making stuff just disappear.
