The original video – https://livestream.com/stateofdelaware/text-to-911/videos/184455734, did not have closed captioning. DAD recently reached out to someone that knew how to make this possible and DAD was given permission to share the captioned version (shown above). Delaware State will be adding the closed captioning eventually as both files came from them.
Thanks to Delaware Office of Emergency Preparedness.

Election notes:
Request absentee ballot
Election laws exist, if fraud, often cannot vote again and prison time too
Homeless count too, have other requirements too
Most require ballots returned by election dates to be counted – can by mail, in person, drop off in election boxes
5 states do their elections by mail and generally report less fraud than other states PLUS it seems to increase voting participation regardless of party affiliation
All States allow mail in ballots. Most have Covid19 allowance in addition to the usual military, permanently disabled, essential worker (i.e. police, hospital), etc
Do note Federal and State have different election laws. States often say disqualified from voting after leaving prison, this is not true for federal elections and have different rules. Sure, simple to say, no to all when in reality election officers wrong. You can call your election commissioner for more info.

Since President Donald Trump began holding televised novel coronavirus (COVID-19) briefings in March, the White House has received requests from lawmakers, a federal disability agency and the nation’s oldest civil rights organization asking that sign language interpreters be provided on screen.
But the government has yet to agree and allow the nation’s approximately 11.5 million people with hearing disabilities to receive information about the pandemic via interpreters.
By contrast, many state and local leaders have been giving coronavirus updates with interpreters. The administration has not publicly responded to the requests to add interpreters to the president’s briefings.
