REPLY Election officials report ~260,000 early ballots left to process. We are concerned some may have a curable error. If counts continue past the Nov. 10 deadline, some voters may not receive notice about their curable error in time to correct it.

President-elect Trump will keep his promise to target the 'enemy within,' a.k.a. anyone who disagrees with him. He is dead serious about seeking retribution against political opponents and deploying federal law enforcement to shut down protests. But we have a 105-year track record of fighting such abuses of power.
