The schedule for N.C. was to begin sending out mail ballots this Friday. I learned this fact from listening to NPR and made the meme planning for this day. Today apparently there is some temporary delay due to some RFK.jr nonsense, but N.C. is going to continue with the election, it's not like RFK.jr can stop us from voting.

You are taking some pedantic position to call my post "misinformation". There is little being added by your comments. While my comments and posts are getting deleted without regard, and I'm still waiting for an apology for mods deleting my last post and messing with my comments here.

WTF is up with the moderation in this place. Let's see how long it takes for this comment to get deleted too.

Your source literally started out by saying it's not happening...

This election is important man, just take a second before posting to vet what you're saying. It honestly seems like you have good intentions, but that's not enough bro.

You need to make sure what you're saying is factual. Even people making innocent mistakes can cause issues down the line. Just added confusion about the voting process has been shown to depress turnout.

Are you the mod here messing with my account? because I want to file a formal complaint with whatever the systems are on this platform. It's one thing to correct people or ask for clarification or edits, it's another to start nuking people's posts and comments without asking and making stuff just disappear.

BTW, PBS Newshour just reported on their daily broadcast

"As the campaign enters the final 2 months sprint, voting can officially begin as the first absentee ballots hit mailboxes in North Carolina today"
