    Millions have people have died so people could vote. I don't know if I agree with this.

    More will die if they allow people to go out a vote tomorrow. They are going to have to find another way, people are going to have to mail in.

    I'm fine as long as it doesn't trigger a Constitutional crisis and people can get their votes in.

    They didn't cancel the primary. There's still plenty of time before the convention to hold a vote.

    Millions haven't died yet but big crowds going out to vote might get us there quicker.

    More people might die if they go out to vote tomorrow. It just depends on who they vote for!

    Bernie needs to drop out. He’s not going to win and now he’s shortening Biden’s campaign season unnecessarily and helping Trump.

    This is interesting. Governor tried to do it earlier today, and a judge overruled him - said the proposed June date could be even more dangerous. Then the Gov tried another route. It's sort of unclear what happens tomorrow and if a judge overrules tonight, or if that's even an option with this declaration. I don't know feasible it would be, but maybe they could mail everyone an absentee ballot and let everyone vote by mail. One Arizona county wanted to do that but was denied by the state.

    Now it’s Illinois, Florida and Arizona’s turn.

    The idea of waiting in line and going into crowded spaces defies everything the CDC has been recommending.

    Turnout is going to be historically low. There’s no upside to this. Postpone the damn thing.

    The June thing was rejected by the courts - Governor can't just do that on his own. As of now, the election is still tomorrow but the polls are going to be closed. They are working on coming up with alternative solutions.
