Why mailing a ballot close to Election Day may get it rejected for a late postmark
If you're using the U.S. Postal Service to return a ballot close to Election Day, officials recommend getting it postmarked at a post office to avoid getting caught up in mail processing changes.

I know Rahm Emanuel. I worked with him for years in the Clinton administration, and then when he was Obama’s chief of staff. Rahm Emanuel represents everything that’s been wrong about the Democratic Party for the last 30+ years. Be warned. robertreich.substack.com/p/the-rahm…

50 days away from creating a future where Ohio’s working families are put first. A future where everything costs less, you get to keep more of your paycheck, and your hard work pays off.

Ohio’s public schools should be preparing our kids for their futures, not struggling every year for the resources they need to help our students succeed.

Black Americans are being found hanging in 2026. For generations, Black people were lynched while institutions stood by and did nothing. We cannot repeat that history. I’m demanding a full investigation from the DOJ.

As someone who specializes in modeling the behavior of coupled systems (where "cause" and "effect" aren't easily distinguished), I can assure you that this is a classic example. Their worldview has been carefully molded by Fox News & the right wing media echo chamber.

The "common good" is a set of shared values about what we owe one another as citizens who are bound together in the same society. A concern for the common good—keeping the common good in mind—is a moral attitude. It recognizes that we’re all in it together.
