I was born in 1992, but I generally like seeing things related to the ND Centennial almost wherever I go

This looks rather interesting. I am in no way affiliated with the auction, just thought there might be some North Dakotans interested. It's the complete liquidation of North America's largest Scandinavian festival.

Debate about voter ID led me to wonder how often people lose their ID because of purely physical reasons. AI was able to find a rate for the state of Oregon--5.6% of IDs are reissued each year because they were lost or stolen. If you average that out over the course of a year (divide by 365) that's a pretty small number that lose their ID right on voting day, but people may not realize it for a few days (or you're like me--something isn't lost until you've spent time looking for it, before that you just don't know where it is right now).

If you multiple that tiny percentage against the number of people who voted in the last national election, it comes out to 57 per day. ND lets us replace a lost ID on the spot, but you have to live where there's a DOT office where you can do that. (Many states mail them out). 40% of North Dakotans do NOT live in a county seat, and there are just 19 DOT offices in the state.

If you replace it online, you get a receipt, but that doesn't have a photo.

It is true that you have up to 13 days to verify your ID after voting day so your ballot can be counted.

Even so, I would bet that the number of people who typically vote in ND and cannot produce an ID at the polls is larger than the number of fraudulent voters by an order of magnitude.

I’m bumming around in Bismark, and have time - what are your favorite places to hear live music around here? And I’m willing to travel so it doesn’t have to be close to Bismark.

TIA.
