The Cuyahoga County Board of Elections is hiring

Via Mary Kilpatrick at cleveland.com:

The Cuyahoga County Board of Elections is hiring.

The board is looking for poll workers to help out on Election Day, Nov. 5. They’re especially in need of Independent and Republicans to work on bi-partisan teams at voting locations across the county.

Workers can earn up to $200. To apply call the Poll Worker Hotline at 216-443-3277 or visit the board’s website.

In the election, Cuyahoga County is asking voters to approve a charter amendment that would keep the sheriff as an appointed position but grant the office greater autonomy and bolster council’s oversight. Cuyahoga Community College is asking voters to approve a .4-mil property tax increase on top of an existing a 1.9-mil property tax that’s also up for renewal.

The ballot includes 69 school and municipal issues, in communities like Euclid, Cleveland Heights and Parma.

President Trump in Minneapolis today

Despite Mayor Jacob Frey's efforts to interfere with the President's rally this evening in Minneapolis (see here and here), the event is ON. From Freedom’s Lighthouse:

President Donald Trump will hold a massive Rally tonight in Minneapolis, Minnesota, at the downtown Target Center. Trump supporters are already lined up early this morning, and the Rally promises to be must-see TV. The rally is scheduled to begin at 7 PM CT.

This will be Trump’s first rally since Democrats began their Kangaroo Court “Impeachment Inquiry,” and something tells me President Trump will have something to say about it tonight!

People forget that Trump lost Minnesota by only 1.5% or 44,000 votes. He is going to make a big push to win this long-held Democratic State in 2020.

NOTE: Trump is going right into radical Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar’s District with this rally. Trump may be able to use Omar and her radical views as a rallying cry to win Minnesota in 2020!

7 PM Central Time, so that’s 8 pm in Cleveland. Look for links sometime after 6 PM at Conservative Treehouse here. For Right Side Broadcasting Network streaming, click here.

Indexing, advertising and payments: 3 threats to Free Speech

Daniel Greenfield has more on the threat to free speech, and how Big Tech censors information. At Front Page:

After the 2016 election, the claim that free speech had gone too far and needed to be controlled became widely accepted, first in the media, and then among the big dot coms who coordinated a censorship campaign with media fact checkers. The stated goal was to stamp out ‘disinformation’. And ‘disinformation’ was defined as any viewpoint that media lefties disagreed with or found disagreeable.

Fact checkers were embedded into Facebook and Google’s operations. Conservative content was censored, deranked, and pushed under corporate media content. The ‘disinformation’ pretext, which was supposed to describe foreign propaganda, was extended to apply to nearly any conservative view.

. . .

This push to suppress conservative content on Google, Facebook, Twitter, and other social media companies is an attack on indexing. People find posts, articles, and videos through search engines, these days largely a Google monopoly, and peer feeds on social media. The indexing attack has been successful with conservative sites losing traffic, and conservatives being banned on social media.

But indexing is just one prong of the attack. The others are advertising and payments.

If you’re a leftist, you don’t want people finding conservative content. Going after indexing means that the people who aren’t specifically looking for conservative content won’t find it. The idea is to turn conservative media into a ghetto. The impact on elections and national debates is obvious.

Young Black Leadership Summit links

The Young Black Leadership Summit took place at the White House yesterday. I tuned into One America News (OAN) for part of Candace Owens’s speech and most of President Trump’s speech. Conservative Treehouse has the video and transcript of the latter. Kyle Morris at Breitbart has a report on Candace Owens’s speech.

President Trump reiterated themes of particular interest to his audience, and the mutual admiration of the President and the Young Black Leaders was palpable. Also of interest was the number of trolls in the comments at Breitbart attempting to discredit Ms. Owens. 

Proof of the pudding for me: just look at the results that President Trump has delivered on his campaign promises, including those that benefit minorities. And as is pointed out by one of the speakers:

A while back, President Trump said, when he was talking to the black community, “If you vote for me, what do you have to lose?” Because the do-nothing Democrats have done nothing for the black community.  2020 is around the corner and we have a lot to lose now because President Donald J. Trump has done so much for the black community.

Are You Registered To Vote?

From cleveland.com:

Monday [October 7] is the deadline to register to vote for November’s election, or for existing registered voters to submit updates.

Either process can be completed online at this link if the person has an Ohio driver’s license or an official state ID. Otherwise, paperwork can be completed in person or by mail.

The Cuyahoga County Board of Elections will stay open until 9 p.m. Monday to accept registrations, spokesman Mike West said. The office is on the east side of downtown, at East 30th Street and Euclid Avenue.

West said registrations can also be completed at any library. He said as long as the card is filled out and dated by the deadline, it will be accepted if it arrives over the next several days.

About 7.7 million Ohioans are registered to vote, though nearly 200,000 were recently purged from the voting rolls for inactivity. You can check the database at this link to see if your name, or the name of someone you know, was removed.

Contact information for each county elections board in Ohio can be found at this link.

Ohio election calendar is here.
