After the last presidential election, the results were called into question. Every state ratified its results a little over a month after the election. The time gap between the election and the final results provided an opportunity to cast doubt on the results. The delay is also reason to have confidence in the elections. We have extraordinary election security by any historical or worldwide standard. Aeric loves elections. He watches them like a football game (albeit a slow-moving football game). He talks a bit about the process of counting ballots and even what it meant to him as a candidate. We hope this helps you have confidence in the process...just in case it is questioned again this year. NOTES: Aeric discovers there is an ESTEP program for election security. What a great name! Federal Election Assistance Commission website. Election certification deadlines. Oregon Election Timeline for 2024 from Oregon Secretary of State RECAP/TAKEAWAYS The simple believes everything, but the prudent gives thought to his steps.

In this episode from the archives, we visit voting as stewardship. It should pair nicely with last week's episode. Aeric recommends David French's two-fold test (https://frenchpress.thedispatch.com/p/how-then-should-christians-vote) recognizing that your vote is your endorsement. That means that voting for the “lesser of two evils” remains an endorsement of evil. Your vote is your personal commitment to the person you vote for, even if your vote doesn't make a difference in the election. (https://www.nationalreview.com/magazine/2020/10/19/voting-for-life/) The smaller the election the more clout your vote will hold and the more difference you can make. Apply the two-fold character and policy test to local candidates, too. You can actually reach out to them and meet them. Aeric did. Get out there and vote next week!
