Dr. Kelly Sennholz: Biden is going to save so many lives because he'll be able to get a grip on this virus. We've got to be willing to prosecute & get rid of those who allowed COVID to continue spreading.

Robert S. Weiner: The states are clever, counting quickly to beat the court so they can't be told to stop counting. I think that's what's going on here.

Aixa Rodriguez: We want to make sure kids get recess & emotional support. We need to use our contracts to make sure the kids' needs are taken care of. When my students have all their needs met, they're better students for me.

Bob Ney: I don't see the Supreme Court getting involved unless say, PA has a county with a 500 vote difference & it becomes a Gore/Bush deal. That's the only way I see the Supreme Court coming in. What Trump did was outrageous.

Khary Penebaker: MLK is yelling at us now for what we've allowed to happen--the underbelly has crawled out & taken over while we hide in the corner. This is not okay. We're better than this.

Abe Amoros: Once we have a forward-thinking legislature [in PA] that allows us to open the mail-in ballots early to start counting them like other states do, we'll be in a better position.
