@charlieb8788 .. is that true? I will vote in person in a couple days, as I have ZERO faith in voting by mail. I see about a 15% chance that the association of my name, which is printed on the ballot envelope, and the it being on the conservative list of registered voters, would see my ballot be counted! It really troubles me to feel this way, but there will be one sure test to the legitimacy of this election. We know that 2M people hand-signed an initiative to recall Grewsom. If we get little more or God forbid LESS than that number be counted as a "YES" for recall, we will know the fix is in. Sadly, I would not put it past the Demoncrats to actually have such poor forethought as to make sure that tally falls well short of 2M recall votes. Even if it did, the GOP wont have the ballz to make a legit argument for recount or accusation of fraud.
.
I saw a video, in which a ballot envelope had a 1/4" hole to which you could identify a specific check-box once the ballot was placed in side and oriented correctly. That hole showed very clearly the black mark where the "recall Grewsome" box was filled in. I checked my envelope and sure enough, it had that same hole, but there happened to be no configuration in which that hole exposed ANY particular vote within. Not sure what that means, but that video is what convinced me to vote in person!

@es83stevenson88 ... Like our man Ben Shapiro says... "Facts don't care about your feelings" :)
Storytime, with the Lil' Ninja: About 1 hour ago, my phone rang and answer machine had one of those voting promotion calls and was from conservative party (as I am registered that way) and sounded like a LIVE person. Sure enough, we spent literally 1/2 hour on the phone and we were on the exact same page on EVERYTHING. While I do everything I can to NOT be within an echo chamber with news and such, I cannot say how pleasant it was to not get ANY disagreement on anything. She and I are both moderate conservatives who want sane Democrats and GOP to not be dominant in any branch and actually work together, so that America gets to have open debate, dialog and comes to a decision that is a fair compromise for a good path forward. Oh, she told me of a press conference at 1PM (PST) with Larry, but no idea the channel or station, but likely on Fox.

DAMN.... I long for the days when I was not told to STFU, every time I shared an opposing opinion to someone :)

@surfingtheoceanoftheinterwebs ... WOW... but it sadly does not surpise me :( I live in Marin Co. and is probably a bit less liberal than your area, but is quite bad. As I mentioned in an earlier comment, there is NO reason whatever to print up different ballots regardless of mail-in or in-person. This is a special election with only 2 boxes to fill in. There can be no possible doubt that Democrats are behind the variations in all this stuff, if for no other reason than to inject confusion and such into the process. I have lost an insane amount of faith in what is, on paper, far and away the best way to elect a representative government.
.
Of course, the rules bear very little to the outcome we get at the end of the day! The more this goes on, the more I begin to think that the current system for the last 250 years is going to have to be completely destroyed, as the Demoncrats are absolutely trying to do. THEN... we will have some twisted, psychotic semi-socialist utopia that will take 100 years to finally implode. At that point, some hermit scholar will be looking through a long lost civilization and come across the founding fathers documents. Like a lightning bolt, those documents will be "re-discovered" as the miracle that they truly are and our nation will start anew.
.
That is an EXTREMELY ugly variable in all of this, but the alternative is even uglier...
