"They can pass all the laws they want, the people themselves are the true and proper arbiters of their validity." T. L. Davis

Great article! It's up to each individual to rebel against this evil, this great evil that rules over us. Voting in local elections where liberty candidates and resolutions have a chance to win is a great idea. We don't have that in California. It's all Democrats all the time. Do you vote for the red commie or the pink commie? All the referendums on the ballot are for the benefit of lawyers, politicians, developers, Indians, or some other special interest group no matter if you vote yes or no. The last proposition for the people was Proposition 13 passed decades ago. It still limits property tax increases. The government hates Proposition 13 and keeps trying to amend it.

But you did get to vote! I am a snowbird, and spend time in the north (legal residence) and time in the south.

Prior to leaving the north, the wife and I filled out the paperwork for absentee ballots. Before we left for the south my wife's ballot request came back to our primary address marked "postage required". Apparently the envelope was run through the machine backwards as the cancellation was clearly on the back. To get back to my house, someone at the post office had to turn the envelope over to see the sender address, thereby exposing the correct postage.

We physically delivered the request to the voter services at the court house and showed them the cancelled envelope. Their response was, "the post office must have scanned it backwards". DUH, you think?

Now we are in the south, and she received her absentee ballot a week after we got here. Mine? Nothing for over 6 weeks so far. So, being the conspiracist I am and living in the battleground state of PA, I wonder if the postal union could be involved? It is PA after all!
