Morning Reads for Monday November 2, 2020
Merry Election Eve! If you have early voted, awesome. If you have not…GET UP AND GET IN LINE TOMORROW. If you live within an hour of me and need me to come watch your kids or take you to the polls, I’ll do it. And if you live further away, I will find someone to come help. This is not a drill, it’s not a right we choose to not exercise, it is a duty as a citizen of this country. I’ll get off my soapbox, but y’all, please go vote tomorrow.
Finally, choose kindness. We don’t all agree. That’s ok. It would be super boring if we did. But, kindness, we can all agree, is important. Tomorrow and the days that follow will be as emotionally charged as anything we have seen in the past weeks, choose peace and kindness.
“I am not interested in which party you vote for on Tuesday. I am more interested in how you treat people who don’t vote for your party.”
Eph. 4:32 – Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God in Christ forgave you.

Exodus 18:21
“Moreover, look for able men from all the people, men who fear God, who are trustworthy and hate a bribe, and place such men over the people as chiefs . . .”
Good morn. I’m not sure if I just hadn’t notice before, or if it’s a symptom of all the national swing state attention, but I have been getting calls and such from both parties. While I very well may be on some lists of both parties, I never got the volume of attention from both. You think that there’s just more attention being paid to the lists, like going deeper even into “unlikely voters”, or is it fair to think that one party’s list was procured and is being used by the other?
Both campaigns get a voter list from the SOS office as well as other interested parties,
“By law, voter registration lists are available to the public and contain the following information: voter name, residential address, mailing address if different, race, gender, registration date, and last voting date. Pricing is set by the Secretary of State’s Office. Such data may not be used by any person for commercial purposes. (O.C.G.A. § 21-2-225 (c))”.

I’m getting calls from both sides as well on my land line, none on my cellphone.
I think they are calling everyone they can.
I suppose they might be using the SoS list, especially if it’s limited to landlines. I was thinking parties were getting the other parties’ proprietary lists, which would have some cell #s. Even so, the SoS list has which primaries ppl voted in? Because of that’s the case, then they are digging into the list and calling anybody, not just regular party-primary voters.
