Your governor seems to want the over 65 trend to continue. He seems content to kill a few more of you off

He is trying, but some of us are refusing to die just to please him.
I'm just tickled to see the younger set getting registered. Now, we will have to remind them to VOTE either in early voting, by mail or in person.

I am 100% certain Kemp and his buddies have come up with a complex scheme to minimize the 'urban' and youth vote. Broken voting machines, sudden power outages, all the red lights in Atlanta stuck on red. I'm especially sour today because of a news story about Perdue, a current GA senator, doctoring the Dem candidates' picture to make his nose longer and broader (Ossoff is Jewish) and sticking the picture next to a photo of Schemer. www.cnn.com/2020/07/28/politics/david-perdue-jon-ossoff-takes-down-ad/index.htmlThen in our tiny local newspaper, a local candidate for state rep went off on Stacy Abrams and how she is against all things American. Damn I need to move someplace less beet red.

And very crowded. My sister lived in CT near New Haven and while the area was beautiful, also a lot of people per square foot. On the other hand, Maine (the parts I've seen) are fabulous. But the winters! Of course, I suffer through the summers down here, so I guess that evens out.

As you go further north and south the number increases. And there are plenty of parts of CT and MA that are quite rural. You just have to go to the northwest parts of CT and western MA

unfortunately, I don't think GA is very vulnerable. it is one of the most rigid electorates in the US.

I caught myself for years after my kids left the nest saying everything twice and then repeating myself within a few minutes. Had anyone paid attention at the time I might have ended up in a memory care facility. So yes, I second this sentiment!

My DGS told me "I heard you the first time."....to which I replied...well, get registered and I won't bother you any more until closer to Nov. He is in N.C. & DGD is in Ca.

Unfortunately in the rural areas of the state the younger voters, those less likely to be rigidly far far right, tend to graduate HS and move (not many jobs here). Which is why our areas are so bright red. So unless I start sneaking around murdering Large numbers of old conservatives ( which I can’t do for religious reasons but wouldn’t that make an awesome Dexter type TV series?) I’m stuck.

The key will be voter participation in urban and suburban areas, which is why Keep is plotting voter suppression in those areas. If those voters are motivated enough to get to the polls in large numbers we could go blue.

I recognize that, and I am just having some fun. Used to live in NC, so I do feel your pain. And yes, Kemp sure seems to be a friend of the coronavirus.

But children don't get sick, so it is not a big deal. That is what the president and some governors think, from what i see. But what do I know
