Listen fellas, it was YOUR beloved Trump who sealed his own fate and legacy. Pointing fingers at Biden, Pelosi or anyone else has nothing to do with how Trump will be perceived by history. He will go hands down as the most INSANE president this country ever had. You guys can hem and haw that it was all the media's fault when in reality it was Trump who brought all this crap upon himself.
Speculation. He didn't play ball by the Washington rules, which made him a lot of enemies.
But we now have a senile leader, career politician, bought & paid for by foreign interests, who even raised a son to follow in his footsteps. Who promotes higher taxes, more government spending & liberal policies, and increased gun control. Anyone want to take odds on when his own party gives him the boot & makes Kamala Harris the president? Sounds like a HUGE win for your side....

What would make me feel at peace would be to have Biden and Pelosi be roommates in the looney bin. Don't know which one of them is more f----d up in the head.
Fixed it for ya. You're welcome.

Trump and Giuliani’ told them not to riot to be peaceful . The dems really did steal the election biden will never be a legit president. and the left will hate him once they figure out he works for china and the globalist . You have 1000 lefty riots media barely says a word you have 1 on the right and now they will never stop talking about it . They want people to take these elections seriously have voter id laws . why not have another election in those states if they are so sure it was legit ?
I'm 100% behind a true, impartial audit, recount, or another closely supervised election. But there is a leftist agenda that Washington & the media feels needs to be promoted, so unfortunately, it won't happen. We are supposed to be a democracy with laws & majority rule through the voting process, but when that cannot even be trusted, what are you left with? I'd say a banana republic....

I don't have information on Ulster or Dutchess county, but if you have the time to make a drive & scout, for squirrels I would concentrate on fairly open hardwood stands, especially those that have hickories or oaks that dropped acorns last year.
For rabbits, I'd try to find thick clearcuts or new growth woodlots, the thicker the better, but if your son is young he may not like walking through the tangles.
I have hunted in Warren county, NJ. There is a lot of public land up there that sounds suitable, maybe try there since it closer to home?
Best of luck!

One more thing I will add, and most probably know this already...
A turkey's sense of hearing & direction are INCREDIBLE. I am convinced that they can hear you 400 yards away, and know within 10 feet of where you are calling from. As a beginner I remember being told about their eyesight, which IS quite good, but their sense of hearing is mind-boggling. Just one man's opinion, of course.

Got any tips for a more affordable box call?
Honestly, it's not so much the call as the caller. You have to experiment a little with every call you buy to get the best sound.

From miles away? That's doubtful. Hundreds of yards is definitely possible.
My experience has been that a box call generally will carry further, especially in windy conditions. If you can afford one, pack it along, they don't weigh much.
But in my opinion, no matter what part of the country you are in, if a tom is interested enough, the calls sound accurate, and he can hear you, there is a chance that he will make the trip. You just have to be out the day when the stars all line up.
Good luck, & post a story & pictures if you are successful.

Good thing we didn't have "anti-vaxxers" in the 1950s.
We'd still be fighting polio and smallpox.
We were loaded up on buses at school and taken into the city for vaccinations. I don't remember anyone protesting then.
It was a different time. Polio & smallpox were real concerns, and as far as we know, weren't created in a laboratory in China. I may sound like a kook in a tinfoil hat, but after everything I've seen this year, I don't trust very much that has the support of the government, big pharma, or the media.

Most states I hunt in, it's required for deer or small game. In states where it's optional, it really all depends on the situation, I also believe it stands out to most animals, but not as much as it does to a human.

What I have observed over the years is that when an employer is getting aggressive about having you work for them, something is not working for them (usually means they are understaffed, and people need a break from the long hours). And I am sure your daughter is very good at what she does, and they recognize this.
With that in mind, I'd probably advise her to go with her first choice. I'd be questioning the integrity of someone who wants your daughter to change her mind after she's already committed to another company. If she goes with the aggressive company and she doesn't like it, she will have burned 2 bridges.

So to answer some of your questions no you would not get a ballot if you are not registered to vote... yes the system knows who got a mail in ballot and recognized it when I went to vote. So yes
Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkEvery state has a different system, what they do in NY is not how they handle things in every other state. https://ballotpedia.org/State_by_State_Provisional_Ballot_Laws
Whether anyone cares to believe my anecdote or not, I requested a mail-in in my state of Delaware because I was hunting out-of-state last week. I actually received 2 ballots to mail in. I did the right thing & only mailed in 1, I am not sure if both would have been counted if I had decided to cheat. But obviously something is not right if 2 ballots are mailed out. The system is flawed, I would venture to guess any Biden voter would want a recount too if they believed that inaccurate counting would have influenced the election negatively.

There was something funny going on this time, no doubt. And in all fairness, things were pretty shady back in 2000 when Bush Jr. was eventually called the eventual winner.
No question in my mind that voter reform is needed in the US. The question that nags at me, is is the level of corruption so deep in Washington that anything will ever be done about it? I don't oppose online or mail-in voting PROVIDED there is a system in place that assures only people who are alive & eligible to vote get 1 ballot; if that isn't practical, then we should only allow in-person voting backed up by a valid ID.

^^^^^ THIS! All day everyday! Especially here in NYS!
Anyone who cares about our 2ND Amendment rights would never have voted for our new "leaders"! We have a Governor who pisses our gun rights away any chance he gets! Now he'll have more ground to stand on again because the two people with the most power are on his side against guns. How soon we forget that the Safe Act was signed into law in the middle of the night so there couldn't be any debating or pro gun people/politicians stopping it.
Trump got our LEO's and Military some much needed funding to do their jobs, to reverse the funding cuts Obama put into place, that Biden supported! Don't forget how ISIS was formed either.
Taxes? Yeah that will be a fun ride.
Also don't forget that these morons who will take office in January want to cut funding for people getting disability, but at the same time want to increase welfare, allow illegals to get free money, and allow people who don't want to go back to work more money to sit home and collect more unemployment benefits then they do at their jobs. For those who pay attention, if there is an economic collapse, this just might be the duo to make it happen.
Some people just don't get it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't see any of this ending well.
I am all out of likes today, but I am giving you one by proxy!

Got.a problem with a black smart woman? I guess that makes two strikes in your count. Pathetic.
Personally, no. I'd be more than happy to pull the lever for Candace Owens if she decides to run. But I have an extremely tough time understanding how anyone who calls themselves a man, or sportsperson, will just willingly vote away their freedoms because they dislike (or probably are jealous) of a president that represents the way of life we have had for almost 250 years. You do realize that Biden & Beto want to take our guns away, and Kamala Ho-ris supports BLM & defunding the police, or have you just been drinking at the liberal fountain because you hate our president so much? If she was so strong, why is California such a disaster, and what will she do differently once Sleepy Joe is committed or mysteriously dies after a year or so in office and she takes over?

Get a life on losing gun ownership. You are crying wolf . Not going to happen.
Here is a guy that has missed the boat completely. Once we are forced to be on the defense about our gun rights, it is all over.

And if you don't have your guns you can't protect yourself or your family. And the police may not even be there to help because Harris and Biden have promised to defund the police. Maybe Biden will apologize to ISIS for the defeat they suffered at the hands of President Trump. That's what the Biden voters want, so I guess they are going to get it.
Nailed it. All I've read for 10 pages is how obnoxious & unlikeable Trump is.
So, they went out & voted for Biden. Have any of the Biden crowd stopped to think of what they voted for? So many NYers claim to hate Cuomo, but this is pretty much what you are getting now, only on a nationwide scale.

The last election was close and so many people hated Hilary. Biden is more vanilla to most and just has a "D" to vote for. And so many people hate Trump. There just isn't a real undecided vote. Right now I feel like he is going to lose. But either way I don't see a big win by either. The country is too divided. And he is a hated man by so many.
My concern is a close election where Trump wins and loses the popular vote and people become unhinged. Or Biden wins close and Trump refuses to acknowledge and people become unhinged.
Both sides have been staging themselves to contest the election. It's going to happen if close on either side.
Fauci might have had some contradictions but he hasn't rant and raved and called people idiots. And he isn't up for re election.
I totally agree that Trump needs to just let Biden hang himself and let him talk is his best move. He def needs to remain more calm, but it's not who he is and most people are already decided. How many people do you know that don't have strong feelings about him one way or the other already?
I remember in upstate NY in 2016 all the I hate Hillary signs and none supporting her. I see so many pro Biden signs now and hate Trump signs. I also see a lot of pro Trump signs but actually nothing compared to the pro Bidens.
I get how people want Trump cause they are so sick of it all. And I feel the same way. But I still feel the.president can be conservative and a decent person. And it bothers me that he can't see it and he is the president. He's a bitter pill to swallow, too bitter for most.
Mike Rowe for president!
Maybe it's the areas we live in. I moved to the border of Delaware & Maryland a few months ago, both states that traditionally vote "D". Every other house is flying a Trump flag, very few Biden signs anywhere. A little less back in my old neighborhood in PA, but still overwhelmingly Trump supporters. My opinion of course, but I don't see Trump as being all that hated, but I do see the media trying to sell this to us on a very regular basis.
Hillary wasn't especially likeable, but I see that things are much different this time around. The corruption, lies, rioting in Democratic cities, & prolonging the Corona fiasco for 7 months has a lot of people disgusted, and ready to pick up guns if it comes to that. Harris is a hack who will probably be the president in 6 months if Biden does win, she's more "deplorable" than Hillary (IMO, of course). And I can't even wrap my head around the fact that the Democrats are trying to run a man who should be in a nursing home as the president of the most powerful country in the world. So many of our freedoms are at stake this time around, I can't even fathom how anyone would willingly vote in socialism & more government control of our lives, especially knowing what we know now.

The problem is his Twitter antics and his behavior at the debates is prob the reason he may very well lose this election and he can't see it for himself. This week calling the Drs on his own team idiots didn't help him any either. Maybe he doesn't need to be civil to run the country but he needs to be civil enough to be re-elected. He's created his own mess. I def don't want to see Biden as the president but I can't pull the hook for Trump despite some of the things he has done I really like and that he isn't a career politician. Not that it matters in NY.
At this point I'm most worried about post election chaos that is probably gonna ensue with a close election.
I'm predicting it's not going to be all that close, now is the chance to expose the Biden cartel for what it really is, I'm not hearing much at all from my liberal acquaintances in the last few days, I'm imagining some of those on the fence or reluctant to vote for Trump may be doing some soul searching. Seems to me the doctors on his team have their own agenda, I haven't trusted anything that came out of Fauci's mouth since March...for someone who is supposed to be an expert, he seems to contradict himself & change his policies every other week. But I do agree that the Democrats will likely contest the election when they do lose. The best thing Trump can do in the next debate is to stay calm, and give Biden more rope to hang himself with.

Then it IS your side, whether you want to admit or realize it. I do understand NY would have gone blue whether you voted for Trump or not, but by not voting or casting a wasted vote, you are part of the problem. Blame it all on Trump if you want, it may or may not make the next 4 years a little more tolerable, I guess that's your choice to make.
