Reporter no matter where you live the ballot will include a set of instructions, its fill out the ballot and tear off the receipt. And then the step that is most likely to get your vote disqualified if you do not sign your envelope your ballot will be rejected. Last election we had over 4000 challenged ballots, of those 4000, 2000 were no signature on the balance. Reporter said three is mail the ballot in but people are not taking chances this year. Ive always voted by mail for the last 10 years but with all the controversy i debated between voting in person and dropping it off personally. Seems pretty safe to drop it off. Reporter one after the other people told us they were longtime million voters now opting for personal delivery. I decided that i was going to bring it in this year, to make sure it got into the right hands. Because every vote matters. People have to vote. Its important. A missing signature is set to be the biggest problem, what else gets ballots challenged . We heard the 2000 are challenged because of no signature that effectively means that they are largely in trouble, more than 1000 about 1300 had questionable signatures that the signature maybe did not match the signature on record with the state, if you want to check that look at your license or go through the state and look it up and see what your signature on record looks like because theyre going to match those signatures from the ballot and the one on file. Thats where other people gets into trouble so make sure the signature is there and try to recreate whats on your license or your id. Thats a great tip. Is unexpected every voter in their state is going to mail in their ballot the number of those who do is certainly going to be much higher. What that means is final results for the key raises are most likely going to take even longer to tabulate. We are allowing them to start the ballot processing earlier, we wont hear any preliminary results before the polls close on election day but we are allowing counties to start processing even earlier so that theres less catchup that they have to worry about on Election Night and the days after the election. For extremely close raises the final results could be delayed a couple of weeks passed november 3 but he adds its more important to get it right stent to get it fast. A major ballot blunder in southern california, thousands of voters in la county searched the election materials that they just received in the mail and found one key race missing. My wife notice first that something with god, she checked it 16 times and asked me to check it and i looked and theres no president ial election. Ears page 5 continue voting on the other side. So i would go to page 6 and it says this page is intentionally left blank. The county says it was a printing error that only impacted one precinct in woodland hills. About 2100 voters, they are being notified of the air and will be sent new ballots. Now that you have your mailing ballot if youre looking for information of all the campaign measures we have you covered with our boat smart guide on our website. Kpix. Com. We will bring extended remarks from the candidates on the campaign trail, today joe biden was in gettysburg pennsylvania, he called for unity while overlooking the battlefield where Union Soldiers shifted the momentum of the civil war. We have too much work to do, we have to write a future to have it shipwrecked on the soles of anger and hate. And division.

Tomorrow Vice President mike pence and Harris Square off in their one and only debate, the Vice President landed yesterday, senator harris has been in utah since the weekend. Both tested negative for covid 19 yesterday, the Commission Says the candidates will be 12 feet apart and they plan to have plexiglas around them as a precaution. But now cnn is reporting the Vice President can debate without the barriers after he objected saying that they are not medically necessary. Senator harris and a moderator will be allowed to use barriers once the three are on stage they will not wear masks. You and whats transpired how does that change the importance of tomorrow nights Vice President ial debate . Arguably its gone from the real undercard in the series of debates to perhaps the most important one of all, because if anything its a reminder to Many Americans that either of these people could very well be one heartbeat away from taking over the presidency from a man in his 70s, both trump and biden have had issues in the past, the 55yearold harrison the 61yearold Vice President are far less known by americans so its a good chance for everyone to tune in and hear from them, perhaps learn more about who they are and what they would do. Was this always going to be a very different debate than what we saw and heard in the first president ial debate mark we can hope that they will each other vintage their sentences and perhaps hold back a little bit and let the other person give an answer. For pence there is an interesting dynamic at play, hes debating a woman, is not done that before and there are always sensitivities in those situations, thats not meant to be sexist in any way it just can be a factor we have seen it in the past and the bates with udebates that involve male and female opponents, it can manifest itself depending on how things go. The president s tweeting that she will involve stimulus. Theres a big risk because obviously it has adverse effects on millions of americans across the country and also in more competitive battleground states like nearby arizona out in ohio, michigan wisconsin pennsylvania, frankly in some ways the ads can write themselves, the president is not interested in negotiations that could help you in that interested in making sure the Supreme Court nominee gets on the bench because that is his instruction, focus on getting Amy Coney Barrett confirmed to the Supreme Court. Easy political attack for democrats and we will see whether or not any republicans in the next few days put some does it distance between the president s decision and what could potentially happen notably because this is a measure the president likes attract some of the announcement sent the stock market nosediving this afternoon, a signal that at least the markets and the broader economy are not pleased to hear the president is postponing the stocks.
