OUCH!

Sorry to have been away.  Sprained my lower back.  For several days I was completely incapacitated. As things stand now ("stand" HA.) I can only remain upright for short periods of time before muscle spasms start up again.  Nights have been impossible; can't remember when I got more than an hour of sleep uninterrupted.  This is gonna take time, and I simply do not heal the way I did even as few as five years ago.  So I'll be back when I can.

Meanwhile, please remember:

VOTE on Tuesday, November 6th.

If a sudden emergency calls you away from your polling place, be it illness or an unplanned trip for your work, here in PA you can request an emergency absentee ballot.  Details available from the League of Women Voters.  Don't let your vote go uncounted.

If you are still in line when the polls close, you still have the right to cast your ballot.  They are legally required to stay open until everyone who lined up before closing time has voted.  Demand your right if it turns out to be necessary.

If you get to your polling place and find that for some reason you have been removed from the voter rolls, you have the right to demand a provisional ballot.  Don't be afraid to do it.  In PA the criteria for provisional ballot voting can be found at https://www.votespa.com/Voting-in-PA/Pages/Voting-by-Provisional-Ballot.aspx

VOTE!
