    One of the reasons very early voting does not appeal to me...Let's say we have a major terrorist incident by terrorist or terrorists who illegally came into the country via the southern border... Would that cause a major swing in the election (Congress and President) if it happened before November?

      "October Surprises" don't have the clout they used to.

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        Conversely, should people really be voting based on their emotional reaction to something that just happened?

        I was only joking

          No, but information is not emotion. Not always.

          Consider how people would have voted, had they known Hunter's laptop was real. That story was covered up like a cat pawing litter.

            Stuff always happens. Stopping early voting because of stuff that may or may not occur during the two weeks before the election doesn't really make much logical sense.

            And it works both ways. Either candidate is more than capable of saying something monumentally stupid or crass a couple of days away from election day which could also make people regret their vote.
