In Ohio you have to vote early at the county election board and last I checked it was only open regular business hours. For me that means 30 minute drive in, pay for parking, 30 minute drive home. Waiting until election day I can walk to my piling place in 10 minutes, wait in line for 30-45,then walk home in 10 minutes. For a lot of places it's not as easy as voting on election day.

Make the mandatory minimum fine 105% of the estimated revenue.

This is how it is supposed to be taught. Common core has this exact quality of numbers explicitly shield or in primary school curriculum. Numbers are not static objects but the composite of infinite functions that can be used to determine the value in whatever base number system you want. Next time someone says school didn't teach math remind them that the US is something like 30th in the world at math and when the department of education tried to do something about it parents said it was too hard to understand and we just kept falling backwards.

I loved my LG v10 and galaxy s5. Those phones just worked and worked great for a long time.

I don't want a dumb phone. I want a circa 2014 smart phone that is not expected to replace my laptop and serve as a constant data stream for corporations. I want to be able to visit a website on my phone and not have it try to get me to download an app, be ads on 70% of the screen, or just be unreadable formatting. Let me call, text, do a basic online search, play a stupid flash game, and take my money. Stop being greedy and trying to make everything I do monetizable

Short answer is yes. Long answer is yes because of cash bail and how expensive it is to mount a defense

Dude a news article from over 4 months ago without noting the time period is bad form.

I'm just glad someone finally decided it wasn't worth the time or effort to "understand Trump supporters" like there is some magic words to get the to realize he's a con man. It's been over 8 years, if they are MAGA now they will probably never stop. Focus on the Haley voters and win the elections you can.

The state needs to ask for federal involvement in these situations. And I'm not just saying that it's on Ohio to ask, legally how the system is set up is the state needs to ask in order for any release of aid. DeWine (R) did not ask. The white house and federal agencies did everything they legally could to assist and be ready for the ask, DeWine just didn't.
