Regarding signatures, and based on my limited experience, if it definitely looks different from the name or the exemplar it goes to a supervisor. Generally "on it's face" is the rule. If it looks like what its says it is it is good..
As for mortgages I know the closers may instruct you to sign full name etc this is a misinterpretation of the rules for fannie/freddie/gennie/fha and not a big deal.

incidentally last week i had to re sign a quit claim on my exs condo due to different requirement now she is selling.. Legal description per county was not adequate apparently

OMG - the first debate tomorrow!

I don't know if I can stand to watch it live ... I think I'll record it, and then read about it on here first and then decide if I can bear to watch it!

I can never watch debates, but I will look for any clips of Trump, I am sure he will say something or 2 that will be entertaining.

I would never stay up that late, so am recording it and will watch when I get up at 4am before I read any articles on it.

I voted yesterday .... Early voting in Virginia.
There were lots and lots of folks with the Easy Rider 1970s style dark sunglasses .... and mask.
I wonder how they voted !!

Simple question I have about mail-in voting. If I vote tomorrow, does my vote get processed, counted, etc or does it simply sit there in a pile waiting to be processed on election day? That is, I guess - are votes allowed to be counted ahead of time, or just received? If all mail-in votes are received 'in good time', I would like to think all this concern about 'delays' would be misplaced.

I think it varies state to state, some on receiving the ballot some 7 days before election day, some 14 days before. The delays come from mailed in on election day ballots, that take a while to get to a counting station.

It depends on the state.

Well, that's going well.
First segment we've had both candidates call the other a liar, several times and Chris Wallace terminated the first section when Biden said 'this is so unpresidential...shut up, man' (addressing Trump, not Wallace.).

Relax folks, 'we're weeks away from a vaccine'.

Guess I should pour myself a kool-aid and tune it in.
