It matters because the Republicans are going to try sneaking some constitutional amendments onto the ballot when nobody's paying attention.

It doesn't seem like a serious article though. The spotted lanternfly is also on the list.

I wouldn't exactly call him stylish, but who cares?

I agree that this law is very vague. "Ordinary family sensibilities" is practically meaningless.

This is silly. Not everyone is religious so people have different views about what happens to you after you die. To me a corpse is just dead organic matter with no significance whatsoever, so I don't care what happens to my body. You disagree, which is fine - your preferences should be respected. But there's no reason to impose them on everyone else.

Because Casey is also a PA senator and voted to break the strike?

I think most actual leftists (i.e. socialists) are upset with the Dems for making this move. I'm not a socialist personally, but I'm also upset with this move.

Republicans are terrible, but that doesn't absolve Democrats of criticism. Dems are in charge and voted along with the GOP to throw workers under the bus.

Two times actually. 2010 and 2016.

I thought northwestern Lehigh was a decent school but idk. I went to Parkland (and grew up very close to the Lowhill border, actually) which is considered one of the best schools in the area and honestly, I feel like "good" schools are somewhat overrated. The teachers at Parkland were hit or miss - some were really good, but there were just as many that didn't teach much. The worst was one of my French teachers, who did absolutely nothing at all, except occasionally give us projects to complete.

I did well academically and got into a "top" university, but that was mostly because of stuff I did outside of school, because my parents pushed me to go beyond the school curriculum and compete in math/science competitions. I don't think I would have been any worse off going to an "okay" high school.

The State College school district is definitely good. I did math/science competitions in high school and some of the best students in the state were from there.

Is this really a bad thing? Most kids don't really care about education and I don't see why we should force them to go to college for the sake of getting a job that most likely could have been done without a college degree.

Hyperinflation is when the monthly inflation rate exceeds 50%, or the yearly inflation rate exceeds 12874.63%. The current inflation is a problem, but it's certainly not hyperinflation.

They are seeking asylum legally.

They're not hard, considering that the average student in PA is expected to be able to pass.

The PA GOP had several proposed constitutional amendments that they wanted to place on the ballot in May 2023. They won't be able to do that if Dems take the PA House.

Too late for USPS at this point. It has to reach the county's board of elections by tomorrow at 8 pm. Did you use the secrecy envelope, and sign and date the return envelope? Honestly it might be best to just drive to your polling place and vote in person tomorrow.

You're right. I'm not sure how exactly they determine whether a date is incorrect though.

I don't think it should matter, but you can call your county elections board to make sure.

I agree with you, I'm just stating what the law is.

Lehigh County's envelope is definitely different from Allegheny's, but it's still pretty clear that you have to fill out the date.

Postmarks don't matter, by the way. Ballots have to be received by election day. And they don't actually care what date you write on the envelope, as long as it's not blank.

It actually doesn't matter what date you write there as long as you write something. The counties receive ballots with people's birthdate, and they are counted.

Edit: I'm wrong, as one of the replies below states.

People from around the country are volunteering for campaigns. I've done the letter writing thing before, back in 2018. Yesterday I went to Milwaukee and knocked on doors to get out the vote for Mandela Barnes/Tony Evers.

Last year I didn't get my ballot until the day after the election, 4 weeks after it was supposedly sent (Lehigh County). Although the postmark was several weeks after the date the county claimed to have mailed it, so I suspect it was just sitting there for weeks. Unfortunately I would have had to travel 600 miles to vote, so I didn't vote. I don't think there is any recourse for this situation.

Edit: By the way, I think the ballot status page is not very meaningful. I completed and mailed my ballot back to Lehigh County two weeks ago, and they received it last week. But the "Ballot Mailed On" column is still blank.
