• Aaron Coleman, a 20-year-old progressive Democrat, won Tuesday's election to represent Kansas' 37th District in the state House of Representatives.

• Coleman's campaign has ben plagued by scandal. In June, he admitted to spreading revenge porn and harassing girls online when he was 14, and in July, he made insensitive comments about the COVID-19 pandemic.

• While Coleman initially dropped out of the race after beating seven-term incumbent Stan Frownfelter in an August primary, he decided two days later to continue his campaign.

• However, Coleman had by then lost support of the state's Democratic Party, which scrambled to find a replacement, which included backing a write-in campaign for Frownfelter. 

• On Election Day, Coleman ran unopposed in the Democratic stronghold district, winning 3,496 of the votes. More than 2,000 write-in votes were cast, but it's unclear what names were submitted. 

The 20-year-old Democrat who earlier admitted to circulating revenge porn and harassing girls online in middle school has won a seat in the Kansas state House of Representatives.

Aaron Coleman, a dishwasher and community college student, ran unopposed in Kansas' 37th District, which encompasses part of Kansas City.

Coleman won Tuesday's election with 3,496 votes, KSHB reported. More than 2,000 write-in votes were counted, but it's unclear what names were submitted.

In June, Coleman admitted to allegations that he bullied and threatened girls online when he was 14 years old, including calling one girl fat and saying she should kill herself, and circulating a nude image of another girl when she refused to send him more pictures, according to The New York Times.

In July, he was also widely criticized for making insensitive comments about the COVID-19 pandemic. According to the Kansas Reflector, Coleman mocked the death of former GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain -- who died of the coronavirus -- and said he would "giggle" if former state GOP Rep. John Whitmer caught the virus and died. Coleman later apologized for his comments.

Despite the scandals, Coleman beat seven-term incumbent Stan Frownfelter, also a Democrat, in the August primary, albeit by a narrow 14 votes.

Coleman apologized for the bullying and revenge porn in a statement to The Kansas City Star after winning the primary.

"I made serious mistakes in middle school and I deeply regret and apologize for them. I've grown up a great deal since then," Coleman said.

But this wasn't good enough for the state Democratic Party, which refused to back Coleman as a candidate.

Coleman actually dropped out at one point after the primary, but continued with the campaign two days later, saying the fact that he won even with his background was a strong message from voters.

"They said that they did not vote for me expecting that I was a perfect person," he said in a statement on Twitter, according to The Hill. "They told me that all of us have sinned, and we all make mistakes."

"Voters do not throw out a 7-term incumbent for a person like myself unless they are deeply frustrated with their lack of representation and demanding a change."

The state Democratic party scrambled to present an alternative candidate, backing a write-in campaign for Frownfelter, KSHB reported.

On Wednesday, Coleman tweeted: "Thank you to all of my supporters. This campaign would not have been possible without you. I promise to work hard to serve the residents of this district."

The USPS can't account for 300,000 absentee ballots, but that's probably not as bad as it sounds

Peter Weber

The Week•November 5, 2020

U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan was furious Wednesday that the U.S. Postal Service had defied his order to sweep postal processing facilities in 15 states Tuesday to find missing absentee ballots and deliver them on time. The USPS had said in a court document that 300,000 ballots had been scanned into facilities but not scanned out, suggesting they were misplaced.

Instead of complying with Sullivan's order, the USPS kept to its own schedule, raising concerns that tens of thousands of ballots would not be delivered in time to be counted. "It just leaves a bad taste in everyone's mouth for the clock to run out — game's over — and then to find out there was no compliance with a very important court order," Sullivan said. He suggested he would demand a deposition from Postmaster General Louis DeJoy.

Notably, there were 81,000 untraced ballots spread across postal districts in key swing states with a combined 151 electoral votes, The Washington Post reports, though, according to its analysis, the missing ballots "are unlikely to affect the outcome of the presidential race." In many cases, USPS said, the ballots had been hand-sorted and delivered without an exit scan. The USPS did not provide data to indicate how prevalent that practice has been, though it did disclose that 7 percent of ballots in its sorting facilities Tuesday were not delivered in time to be counted.

"Even in a worst-case scenario where all potentially misplaced ballots in a state are permanently lost, those ballots amount to just a fraction of both current two-party vote margins and estimates of the number of outstanding ballots yet to be tallied," the Post reports. In Georgia, for instance, the maximum 6,624 missing votes represent just 8 percent of the margin between President Trump and Democrat Joe Biden.

- ADVERTISEMENT -

In other states, though, the number of missing ballots is larger — more than 11,000 in Pennsylvania and 16,000 in Florida — and the untraced absentee votes in Arizona make up 24 percent of the outstanding margin between Biden and Trump, the Post reports. Also, its analysis that "misplaced mail ballots will not be a significant factor in final vote tallies" has the caveat that it might be a factor if "the final presidential vote margins shrink to low three- or four-digit numbers in the coming days." In some states, like Arizona and Georgia that's a distinct possibility.

 

 

 

USPS's handling of mail-in ballots was 'gross negligence': Fmr. USPS Board of Governors Chair

Yahoo Finance Video•November 5, 2020

Former USPS Board of Governors Chair David Fineman joins Yahoo Finance's Kristin Myers to discuss the postal service's handling of mail-in ballots. 

“The assumption that there are unaccounted ballots within the Postal Service network is inaccurate. These ballots were delivered in advance of the election deadlines. We employed extraordinary measures to deliver ballots directly to local boards of elections." - USPS

U.S. Postal Service says 1,700 ballots found in Pennsylvania facilities

By David Shepardson

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) said about 1,700 ballots had been identified in Pennsylvania at processing facilities during two sweeps Thursday and were being delivered to election officials.

In a court filing early Friday, USPS said 1,076 ballots, had been found at the USPS Philadelphia Processing and Distribution Center. About 300 were found at the Pittsburgh processing center, 266 at a Lehigh Valley facility and others found at other Pennsylvania processing centers.

Ballots must be received by Friday evening in Pennsylvania in order to be counted. The vote for the U.S. president remains extremely close and Pennsylvania is one of the states that remains undecided.

About 500 ballots were also discovered in North Carolina during sweeps, USPS said on Friday.

U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan on Thursday had ordered twice daily sweeps at USPS facilities serving states with extended ballot receipt deadlines as votes were still being counted in U.S. election battleground states.

Some states, including Nevada and North Carolina, are counting ballots that are received after Election Day as long as they were postmarked by Tuesday.

Lawyers said at a court hearing on Thursday that USPS had delivered about 150,000 ballots on Wednesday.

"The vast majority were destined for postmark states and would be delivered on-time under state election law," USPS said.

Sullivan said the processing centers must perform morning sweeps and then afternoon sweeps "to ensure that any identified local ballots can be delivered that day."

Sullivan issued a separate order requiring USPS to "coordinate with all local county Boards of Elections in North Carolina or Pennsylvania" in order to deliver all ballots "before 5:00 PM local time in North Carolina or Pennsylvania" on Friday.

Ballots were still being counted by election officials in battleground states after polls closed Tuesday in one of the most unusual elections in U.S. history because of the novel coronavirus pandemic.

Democratic candidate Joe Biden was cutting sharply into Republican President Donald Trump's leads in Pennsylvania and Georgia. The former vice president retained slim margins in Nevada and Arizona.

LeBron James, Michael Jordan among celebrities paying court fees to help Florida felons vote

Two of basketball’s biggest stars have been chipping in to help Florida felons vote in this year’s election.

LeBron James and Michael Jordan helped join Michael Bloomberg’s $27 million effort to help clear fines and fees for about 40,000 felons in the state so that they can vote in Tuesday’s election, according to the Tampa Bay Times.

It’s not clear how much they contributed. Spokespeople for both Bloomberg and James’ “More Than A Vote” organization did not return the Times’ requests for comment.

Bloomberg enlists celebrities to help Florida felons

James and Jordan are just the latest to help pitch in and assist Florida felons vote in this year’s election.

About 1.4 million Floridians had their right to vote restored in 2018 thanks to Amendment 4, which allowed convicted felons who have served their sentences to vote again — with the exception of murder or sexual abuse.

Last year, however, Republican lawmakers and the governor passed a law that required ex-felons to pay back court fines and fees before regaining their right to vote — which is essentially a poll tax and was found to be unconstitutional in May.

An appeals court ruling earlier this year overturned that unconstitutional ruling. Five of the six votes that overturned that ruling, according to The New York Times, came from judges who were appointed by President Donald Trump.

About 75 percent of former felons owe court debt, and about 70 percent of them are unable to pay. There is no central database used in the state, either, making paying those fees extremely difficult if not impossible.

Several groups have joined the fight to help restore their votes in time for Election Day. James and “More Than A Vote” had previously committed $100,000, and the Miami Heat donated $45,000.

According to the Tampa Bay Times, about 32 percent of the 4,700 felons who had their rights restored through Bloomberg’s foundation in the states four biggest counties had registered to vote.

Local Police Say Biden Staffer May Have Been ‘At Fault’ in ‘Trump Train’ Highway Incident

Mairead McArdle

Mon, November 2, 2020, 5:14 PM EST

Local police in Texas said over the weekend that the vehicle of a Joe Biden staffer may be “at fault” in a minor collision that occurred during an incident where Trump supporters in trucks surrounded and followed a Biden campaign bus.

The incident occurred on I-35 in Hays County and involved a Biden staffer’s white SUV making contact with a Trump supporter’s black truck.

The San Marcos Police Department, which is handling any potential police reports on the crash, said it has researched the collision and watched footage of the incident online.

“The at-fault vehicle may be the white SUV and the victim appears to be the black truck,” the police department said in a statement.

“Calls to the driver of the white SUV have gone unanswered and SMPD has not been contacted by the driver of the black truck. Since SMPD has not spoken to either driver at this time, additional investigation would be required to fully ascertain who was at fault,” the department said.

The police department also said the Biden bus requested a police escort, but due to traffic police were not able to reach the campaign bus before it exited the jurisdiction.

Katie Naranjo, chair of the Travis County Democratic Party said in a tweet that Trump supporters followed the Biden bus through central Texas “to intimidate Biden supporters.”

“They ran into a person’s car, yelling curse words and threats. Don’t let bullies win, vote,” she wrote.

The Biden campaign also condemned the group of Trump supporters, accusing them of endangering those close to the campaign.

“Rather than engage in productive conversation about the drastically different visions that Joe Biden and Donald Trump have for our country, Trump supporters in Texas instead decided to put our staff, surrogates, supporters, and others in harm’s way,” said Tariq Thowfeek, the Biden campaign’s Texas communications director.

President Trump on Saturday tweeted a video that appears to show his supporters surrounding the bus along with the words “I LOVE TEXAS!”

The nonpartisan Cook Political Report on Wednesday moved the presidential race in Texas from “lean Republican” to “toss up.” Trump is up by one point in the state as of Tuesday, a day before the election, according to the Real Clear Politics average of polls.

 

Biden HAS TO WIN.....the country will break out in vilence if Trump wins

Don't know how you contracted COVID-19? Experts say 'it's no longer obvious'

Across the country, cases of COVID-19 are increasing at an alarming pace. In the last seven days, more than 500,000 people were diagnosed with COVID-19, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. And a growing number of people have no idea how they contracted the virus, doctors say.

“It’s increasingly becoming common” for patients to not know how they got COVID-19, Dr. Amesh A. Adalja, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, tells Yahoo Life. Dr. Richard Watkins, an infectious disease physician and professor of internal medicine at the Northeast Ohio Medical University, agrees. He tells Yahoo Life that “lately, most of” his patients don’t know where they contracted the virus. The same is true for Dr. Rajeev Fernando, an infectious disease expert in Southampton, N.Y. For many of his patients, “it’s because people tell me they’ve not been wearing masks as they should,” he tells Yahoo Life.

This trend says a lot about the virus and where things are headed, Dr. William Schaffner, an infectious disease specialist and professor at the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, tells Yahoo Life. “The virus can spread from people who have no symptoms or who are asymptomatic,” he says. “It’s now spreading in a way that people experience when they get the common cold. They wonder, ‘Where did I get that?’ and it can be difficult to really know the answer. This is an indication of how widely spread the virus has become in our communities.”

Henry F. Raymond, associate professor and epidemiologist at the Rutgers School of Public Health, tells Yahoo Life that the increase in people who don’t know how they contracted COVID-19 indicates that “there are a lot of asymptomatic spreaders.”

“It’s no longer obvious, like you were with a friend, they looked bad and they sneezed on you,” he says. “We’re definitely seeing a lot of younger people who are asymptomatic, carrying the virus and spreading it.”

At the same time, “many people don’t understand how contagious the coronavirus is,” Watkins says, adding, “this, combined with the high number of asymptomatic infected people, is what is driving the pandemic, which is not showing signs of slowing. We are definitely not ‘turning a corner.’”

Not knowing how you caught the virus can make it difficult for contact tracers to figure out patterns in transmission, Raymond says. It’s not entirely cut and dry, though.

“In some ways it’s easier, in some ways it’s harder,” Adalja says. “If you don’t know who you got the virus from, it’s hard to find patterns with contact tracing.” But people are increasingly spending time in smaller groups, which can make it easier for contact tracers to know who to contact next, he says. “If you have only been around three people, it’s easier to know who are your contacts,” Adalja says.

The rise of contact tracing apps like New York’s COVID Alert NY and Pennsylvania’s COVID Alert PA may help, but it’s too soon to know how much they can contribute, Raymond says. “It’s too early to tell how many people are actually going to download them and activate them to see what impact it might have,” he says.

The trend toward people hosting others in their own homes as the weather cools is concerning to Adalja. “It’s harder to intervene in what people are doing in their own homes versus in mass gatherings or at a restaurant. It’s much more difficult to come up with a plan for people to follow.”

That’s why Adalja recommends that people remain “really vigilant” about how they’re acting when they’re around others. In addition to following the CDC’s guidelines for preventing the spread of the virus, like wearing masks, practicing social distancing and washing hands regularly, Adalja urges people to think about their potential exposure at home. “If you can see other people outdoors instead of indoors and keep your distance, that’s better,” he says. “I suspect that people are not going to be wearing face coverings in their own home.”

Raymond stresses that people should be aware that current case counts of the virus are “just the tip of the iceberg,” adding, “in general, the amount of virus in the community is much higher than people realize.” There are “probably thousands who are, on some level of the spectrum — maybe they feel achy but they don’t get a test, or they don’t feel bad at all but they’re spreading the virus — and they’re not being counted,” Raymond says.

Raymond urges people to be aware that the pandemic is still ongoing, and that it’s getting worse. “We are in this for a longer time than we ever hoped,” he says. “Now is not the time to think that the fight is over.”

For the latest coronavirus news and updates, follow along at https://news.yahoo.com/coronavirus. According to experts, people over 60 and those who are immunocompromised continue to be the most at risk. If you have questions, please reference the CDC’s and WHO’s resource guides.

Wolves G Malik Beasley charged with pointing assault rifle at family on parade of homes tour

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Malik Beasley was arrested after police say he pointed an assault rifle at a family of three that approached his rental home during a parade of homes tour in the Minneapolis suburb of Plymouth.

Beasley and his girlfriend, Montana Yao, are also facing drug charges after the incident led to a search of their home and the seizure of nearly two pounds of marijuana, according to a statement from the Hennepin County Attorney's Office.

Felony charges against Beasley, girlfriend

Beasley is charged with fifth-degree drug possession and felony threats of violence while Yao is charged with fifth-degree drug possession. Both are 23. They have a 1½-year-old son together. The alleged incident took place on Sept. 26.

- ADVERTISEMENT -

The Timberwolves released a statement Thursday acknowledging the charges.

“We are aware of the charges involving Malik Beasley,” the statement reads. “We take these allegations seriously and will let the legal process run its course.”

What allegedly happened

According to the charges, a couple and their 13-year-old daughter pulled up to the shoulder of the road in front of Beasley’s home in their SUV while touring the parade of homes. Beasley’s house was roped off. As the family sat in the SUV, Beasley allegedly approached the vehicle with an assault rifle and tapped on a window.

He pointed the gun at the vehicle and told the family to “get the f--- off” his property, according to prosecutors. The criminal complaint described the weapon as an “all-black assault rifle with a forehand grip” and a scope. He kept the gun pointed at the vehicle as it drove away, according to the complaint.

Police search allegedly led to more guns, pot

The alleged incident prompted multiple 911 calls and led police to search Beasley’s home for the rifle. When they entered the home, they say they detected an “overwhelming odor” of marijuana and found 1.8 pounds of the drug in the home. They claim they found a rifle matching the one described in the report in addition to a 12-gauge shotgun and a handgun.

Police say they also seized surveillance footage from the home showing Beasley grabbing his rifle and taking it outside around the same time the family reported the confrontation.

Yao told police that the marijuana belonged to her and that she obtained it at a medical marijuana dispensary, according to the Minneapolis Star Tribune.

Beasley averaged 20.7 points per game in 14 games with the Timberwolves last season after a midseason trade from the Denver Nuggets. He has a court appearance scheduled for Nov. 19. Yao is due in court on Dec. 29.

Farmington Hills man charged with unemployment fraud showboated lavish lifestyle on social media

A Farmington Hills man is facing several charges accused of stealing from the unemployment insurance agency, then showboating his lavish lifestyle on social media with stacks of cash, luxury cars and appearing to brag to law enforcement.

(WXYZ) — A Farmington Hills man is facing several charges accused of stealing from the unemployment insurance agency, then showboating his lavish lifestyle on social media with stacks of cash, luxury cars and appearing to brag to law enforcement.

This is a brazen crime spree that started back in April. US Attorney Mathew Schneider says if you think you can steal from the government and not get caught, you’d better think again.

“This unemployment fraud could be the largest fraud against the taxpayers in a generation,” Schneider said.

Andre Taylor Jr., 27, of Farmington Hills, is charged with three counts of wire fraud, three counts of aggravated identity theft and four counts of mail fraud after he allegedly defrauded the Michigan unemployment insurance agency, credit card companies and stole identities of area residents.

“It’s stunning the amount of money that is being taken away from people who are unemployed,” Schneider said.

Taylor is accused of filing unemployment claims in Michigan and other states. It’s alleged he had the state unemployment agencies send him $600 in prepaid credit cards, an additional weekly benefit during the pandemic for people out of work, and spent those gifts cards an Meijer, Kroger and other stores. He would even allegedly mail some of the cards to his house and relatives.

“When you’re unemployed and you need that money for yourself that goes to feed your family, there’s only so much money available and when people like this steal that money away, it really hurts the people of Michigan,” Schneider said.

US Attorney Mathew Schneider says Taylor would then post pictures of mounds of cash, luxury cars and more on social media. Schneider says it wasn’t the feds who brought them this case, it was the USPS who say Taylor would bribe mail carriers to steal debit and credit cards along their routes.

“In this case it was the US postal service. The postal inspection service. Those postal workers are doing a great job and now in our country we hear people talking bad things about the postal service; they’re the ones bringing us these cases,” Schneider said.

Schneider says it’s disgusting to see people stealing from people who need the money the most, but promises they’re not done yet.

“So, whether or not you’re going to brag about it on social media or not, we are going to follow the money trail until we track you down,” he said.

This investigation is still in the early stages. Schneider says they are still counting the money but says he expects the amount to be enormous.

Fact check: Biden did tell a Detroit worker 'I'm not working for you' during gun rights argument

The claim: Joe Biden told a factory worker 'I don’t work for you'

A viral social media post claims Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden isn’t the public servant he’s made out to be.

The meme, shared on Facebook, depicts an encounter between Joe Biden and a person wearing a helmet who is turned away from the camera. There’s a speech bubble over Biden’s head which reads “I don’t work for you!” as Biden points at the person, insinuating he said that to the person.

“Remember this on Election Day 2020,” the text on the image reads.

The person who posted the meme, which has been shared 63,000 times, did not respond to USA TODAY’s request for comment.

Fact check: Satire article misrepresents Biden's abortion stance

Yes, Biden said that, but context is missing

In March, Biden got into a heated exchange over gun rights with a factory worker at an auto plant in Detroit, USA TODAY previously reported.

“You’re working for me, man,” the worker told Biden.

“I’m not working for you,” Biden said. “Give me a break, man. Don’t be such a horse’s a--.”

But the conversation between the two before those words were exchanged provides additional context to the quote in the meme.

Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden clashes with a worker in Detroit on March 10, 2020.

As Biden was making his way through a crowd of workers at the Fiat Chrysler plant, one person stopped him and accused him of “actively trying to end our Second Amendment right” and “take away our guns.”

The former vice president told the worker that he wasn't accurately describing his stance on gun control, calling him "full of s---." An aide seemingly attempted to curb the conversation, at which point Biden appeared to shush him, as seen in a video of the encounter recorded by CBS News.

Biden explained his stance on the Second Amendment, comparing its limits to those on the First Amendment right of free speech. He also said he owned shotguns and that his sons hunt.

The exchange continued to grow more tense as the man repeated his accusation that Biden pledged to take away peoples’ guns. The worker fired back that he'd seen a "viral video" of the former vice president saying he'd take away peoples' guns.

Biden said the videos the worker was referring to were "simply a lie." A number of manipulated videos of Biden have circulated on social media. He denied again the notion that he would confiscate guns, and argued back that there's no plausible need for semi-automatic rifles, mistakenly calling them "AR-14s."

More words were said between the two, which cannot be heard clearly on the video. The next clear language was the exchange between Biden and the worker about who works for whom. 

The photo used in the meme was taken by photographer Mandel Ngan for AFP via Getty Images. Biden was not holding public office at the time the video was taken, though he was running for president.

In response to USA TODAY's request for comment, Biden spokesperson Matt Hill pointed to a fact check by PolitiFact of the same comment.

Our rating: Missing context

We rate the claim that Biden told a factory worker “I don’t work for you” as MISSING CONTEXT because it may mislead some without additional information. The worker and Biden argued over gun control and Second Amendment rights before the statement was made. The encounter took place on March 10 at an auto plant in Detroit.
