EARLY VOTING GOING GREAT GUNS

It was reported today that early voting nationwide is slightly above 50 million.  If I recall correctly all votes cast in 2020 numbered about 159 million.  Also the powers that be reported that voting is proceeding very nicely in the areas devastated by hurricane hits recently.  All legal votes should be counted.  People who are legally registered should certainly be allowed to vote even if their homes and their cities are gone.  I am gratified that the system seems to be working.
