States make late changes to election rules, even as voting is set to begin
In Georgia, election workers will have to hand count the number of ballots cast after voting is completed. In North Carolina, some students and university staff can use their digital IDs to vote. In Wisconsin, ballot drop boxes are newly legal again, although not every voting jurisdiction will use them.
Across the country, including in some of the nation’s presidential swing states, new or recently altered state laws are changing how Americans will vote, tally ballots, and administer and certify November’s election.

The Guava: Putin Offers Trump Sanctuary To Avoid Going To Jail After Losing Election, Maduro Doesn't
With Kamala Harris almost 3 points ahead in the polls for the presidential election, Donald Trump and his team are beginning to question his chances of wnning the election in November. Considering his being found guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records relative to the "hush money" payments to adult film star Stephanie Clifford, known as Stormy Daniels, (sentencing set for November 26) and other state and federal indictments for criminal activities for interference in a federal election and his attempts to interfere in the transfer of power after Joe Biden's election in 2020, Trump's fear that he might lose the election this November means he would also lose the chance to pardon himself of his crimes or at least prolong the inevitable for another four years.
Today, officials at the U.S. Department of Justice announced that they are looking into having Donald Trump's passport revoked anticipating that he may attempt to flee the country if it looks likely that Harris will win the presidential election. They claimed that there is strong evidence that Vladimir Putin will offer Trump asylum in Russia if he asks for it. Considering the climate in Russia and it's lack of golf courses, Trump may opt for a climate more like that at Mar-a-lago. Lately, Donald Trump has been talking a lot about Caracas, Venezuela, a city he has called a "very safe" city, although it is frightenly crime ridden. Besides that, Nicolás Maduro, the corrupt president of Venezuela, has voiced that he is hesitant to offer Trump asylum. Maduro has enough problems dealing with his own illegally stolen election without Trump's potential interference.
Considering Trump's proclivity to wiggle out of the messes he makes for himself he may be running out of options.
