General election will soon be cast. A handful of states are scheduled to mail out Absentee Ballots in the coming days. North carolina was supposed to be the first state to send out Ballots Yesterday, but that was delayed last minute due to a lawsuit filed by Robert F Kennedy junior who dropped out of the president ial race two weeks ago, but now he wants his name removed from the ballot to prevent spoiling the candidacy of Donald Trump. More than 130,000 voters registered in North Carolina have requested Absentee Ballots so far but it is unclear when they will receive them because the state may have to reprint the ballots which is an effort that could add days to the delay.

But just in the context of this hearing, id like to point out that the board has been so far, from what ive heard, asking a lot of questions about identifying sort of superfluous elements of the Police Budget such that can be cut, particularly in the light of this budget deficit. And these are only symptoms of a much broader problem, and lets not forget that the Biggest Issue with the police is that this is an institution that directly targets black and brown people and that the time has concluded. Thank you for your comments. Next speaker, please. Hello. My name is ryan. I live in district 4. I urge for divestment of the sfpd.
