51. We have to take it day by day. But I believe if Trump think Democrats will play his game, he is in

for a big surprise. I have no intention of voting by mail... I will early vote if possible or show up on election day with my mask. I have volunteered to man the polls too...yeah life threatening since here in Ohio, you don't need a mask to vote . I will do what it takes to kick that orange bastard out of the White House.
