I noticed the day’s news yesterday evening; it seemed to stay about even on the good news-bad news bit. For instance, over the weekend, we got the story about the Portage Co. OH sheriff harassing people with Harris-Walz signs, and being outright political. It was separately reported, and I can’t find it now, but when some people tried to get the state’s SoS to somehow stop or discipline the sheriff, the SoS, who truly has no authority in these matters, reportedly declined because of how soon the election is, then also made a political statement, which is unethical in most states, but likely not illegal in a Republican state. Anyway, Monday there is a wonderful story; the Portage Co., OH elections board went to work on the issue.
In Texas, it is quite legal and just fine for citizens to surround traveling vehicles and harass the people inside to the point of fear for their very lives. The harassed bus driver was awarded a small amount, Not sure what else we expected, maybe due process of law and respect for human life on the highways of the United States, but I guess it is TX, after all. Who needs stinkin’ laws, anyway…
So back up North in Nebraska, there is a Republican with a conscience who honors his oath of office. This is good news, because, of course, because we’ve already read that GA will be required to hand count the number of ballots cast to be sure their number of ballots equals the number of votes tallied. That will surely go well, says the year 2000 …
Finally, one of the worst people in the world exists in the US. Here to give us balance is someone rich who seems to be good.
I’ll wrap this up for now. Who knows what will happen later today?
