Hello Readers,
Election season is in full form. No one knows who will be our next president. However, Joe Biden is leading in the polls by more than 9 points over Trump. Also, the senate race is critical for the Democratic Party. The Democratic Party must win four seats to be in control of the senate. The election will be on November 3, 2020. Chances are the results will not be declared on Election Day, as like all other elections. Due to mail-in-ballots, they will have to wait from two days to one week depending upon the state. They will start counting the ballots right after November 3, but it will be a while before a winner is declared.
The way the parties are divided, it seems like neither party will accept the election results, if it is against one candidate. So, chances are there will be riots in our county, unless one candidate wins by a landslide.
Trump is just recovering from COVID-19. As a regular citizen, if it happened to one of us, we would not get out like him. It can be a credit to him or discredit him, because people follow the actions of the president and they might not have the same spirit, and they might get sick. As shown on TV, thousands of people in Florida were without social distancing and majority of them without masks. That is dangerous in this pandemic. Trump claimed that he is free of COVID-19 and he is immune to it now. However, there is no backing about his claim. Also, he expects the same kind of gathering when he visits places like Iowa and Pennsylvania. He will have multiple state visits until November 3, as he is behind in the polls big time.
According to the New York Post; “Hunter Biden introduced his father, then-Vice President Joe Biden, to a top executive at a Ukrainian energy firm less than a year before the elder Biden pressured government officials in Ukraine into firing a prosecutor who was investigating the company, according to emails obtained by The Post. The never-before-revealed meeting is mentioned in a message of appreciation that Vadym Pozharskyi, an adviser to the board of Burisma, allegedly sent Hunter Biden on April 17, 2015, about a year after Hunter joined the Burisma board at a reported salary of up to $50,000 a month. “Dear Hunter, thank you for inviting me to DC and giving an opportunity to meet your father and spent [sic] some time together. It’s realty [sic] an honor and pleasure,” the email reads. An earlier email from May 2014 also shows Pozharskyi, reportedly Burisma’s No. 3 exec, asking Hunter for “advice on how you could use your influence” on the company’s behalf.”
Biden has denied it, saying, “I did not know about thar he is on the board… My children will not in foreign affairs.” This was stated by Biden in the interview with Judy Woodruff, PBS Newshour.
In New Jersey, Coty Booker should win easily against Rik Mehta. Booker is leading by about 25 points against Mehta. Booker is smart, charismatic and organized person and he thinks about people.
Have a wonderful week.
I’ll talk to you next week.
