Reasons Why It Takes 7 Days To Count Votes Today

 1.  There's only one pony and one rider to get each polling station's ballots to the central warehouse.  Also most of the riders are blind, and have gall bladder problems.

2.  Ballots occasionally are written into Chinese language and have to be translated by certified experts.

3.  Counting people sometimes have a problem going past one-hundred.

4.  Some of the women counters show up in revealing clothing and distract the male counters from their job.

5.  Poll managers are afraid to admit that they never made it past the sixth grade.

6.  More than 40-percent of all ballot counters are members of a highly secretive cult. 

7.  Seven out of ten ballot counters....have a phobia about handling paper.

8.  Half of all Arizona ballot counters, if they hear any David Hasselhof tune.....reset their count to zero, and have to start all over again. 

9.  Some odd feature has been noticed where you run a stack of 100 blank ballots through five times, and you get a different number instead of zero....each time.

10.  Someone keeps bringing in a case of Captain Morgan Rum to start a four-hour shift.  

My general solution?  Hire up 175,000 Germans for three days (starting on Sunday)....fly them into the various locations, and let them handle ballot counting. Then give them the return ticket for Wednesday afternoon.  The vote will be complete by midnight Tuesday.  

This One Odd Aspect of the Election

 Various news groups did a poll question to ask folks....as they wrapped up voting....how do they feel about the nation.  From three networks, the general answer in the 75 percent range.....the nation is 'somewhat or extremely screwed-up'.  Usually....less than 20-percent said the nation was on the right path.  

So the question is....if this was a non-wave election....why feel disgruntled over the direction the nation is going?

Maybe they ought to qualify the question and add.....are you employed and feeling disgruntled?  Are you unemployed and feeling disgruntled?  

Maybe they sought to ask....are you a Democrat and feel disgruntled?  Or, are you a Republican and feel disgruntled?

Perhaps at the end of this discussion....it's not really the party business at fault....that the blame shifts over to President Biden?  

My suspicion?  Depending on which state or urban area you live....qualifies you on the disgruntled business.  If you live in Florida....in a non-urban setting....you probably aren't that much on the disgruntled business.  If you live in the heart of Seattle, affected by crime and homelessness....you are super-happy with things, and just grin when asked about your lack of disgruntledness.  

There's a problem here, but you just don't know what it is.
