The debate commission says it will mute Biden's and Trump's microphones to prevent interruptions while the other gives two-minute initial responses

North Carolina issued new guidance on fixing absentee ballot problems. Here are the key changes.An election worker stuffs absentee ballot applications at the Mecklenburg County Boards of Elections office in Charlotte, North Carolina, on September 4. Logan Cyrus/AFP/Getty Images

In a previous memo, dated Oct. 4, the NCSBE directed county election boards to take no action on absentee by mail ballots with deficiencies on the return envelope, to avoid confusion while several lawsuits around which ballot envelope issues can be cured played out in various courts. There are three listed deficiencies in the new memo that require a new ballot be issued because they cannot be cured by certificate:The envelope indicates the voter is requesting a replacement ballot

The memo instructs that county boards must notify voters in writing within one business day of identifying the deficiency and include a cure certification or a new ballot, depending on the issue being resolved. The written notice must also include information on how to vote in-person during early voting and on Election Day, as a voter can choose this option instead of fixing or filling out a new ballot.

old news, however. the mute button was a farce. To be effective one must push it.I wish I could have been timer and enforcer. Bit better than before but far from what we were promised

Just mute both of them we wont miss much.

johncusack Should be interesting for the first 15 minutes. If it goes off the rails again with the open debate portion, I'll be pressing mute.

Will they let them talk about Hunter?
