If you haven’t voted yet, you can vote safely Tuesday if you use a little caution

On Tuesday, many of us will vote.
Of course, here in Chester County, more than 100,000 people have returned their mail-in ballots (that number is probably low — I assume many more ballots will have shown up, maybe 40,000 more, by the time you read this — if you have a ballot, please take it to a drop off box right away).

“If you fool us once, then shame on you. If you fool us twice, then shame on us.”
Houlahan has fooled us once, so shame...
The going is about to get tough again, but hang in there, there is an end in sight
By Mike McGann, Editor, The Times @mikemcgannpa
With slightly more than two weeks until the election, you’re probably tired of hearing about it, tired of wondering when we’re going to beat this pandemic, tired of working from home, tired of teaching your kids and frankly, just tired of it all.
I don’t blame you, it’s been an exhausting year.
You can’t make plans — who knows what’s going...
