Littley be allowed a editorializing, i would like to say a few words on behalf of my husband on the importance of the american election. Thatbelieved selfgovernment was the only moral government and every human being on earth was entitled to it. He believed it was americas great because in the world and he served it with unwavering dedication. He loved nothing as much as traveling abroad to observe the first free elections held in countries emerging from decades of tierney.

Organization youre involved with and what your efforts have done so far in the 2020 election. Guest sure. So about four months ago, a number of us former federal officials pulled together the National Council for election integrity. We now have over 40 members of this council.

In arizona, the remaining balance seem to favor trump. Advantage thatte joe biden had at the start of the day will be whittled down, but i believe by the time all of these percentages, if they hold, based on what we know, netnet, biden will finish out the victory in arizona by maybe 50,000 vot
