TY vs CHT Dream11 Prediction : Taiyuan Vs Chunghua Telecom Best Dream 11 team for WSBL 2020 Match

TY Vs CHT Dream11 Team Overview, Match Centre And Probable Playing 5: Second place thrown wide open after Taiyuan suffer a stunning defeat yesterday.From cantering their way into second place to suffering a stunning defeat to Taipower yesterday. The set of events unravelling on Tuesday perfectly summed up Taiyuan’s sortie in the ongoing edition of WSBL with inconsistency perfectly encapsulating the side’s current sojourn.After enduring a lacklustre start to the 2020 season to punching above their weight to make massive strides and occupy second place, Taiyuan are back at doing what they do best. The club has stuttered its way to three defeats in its last five clashes, results which leave them precariously clutching at the barest of straws at the moment. And the biggest predicament for the outfit was its 64-59 defeat to bottom placed Taipower yesterday.

Akin to last year, the side holds a 100% winning record in the marquee league this time around as well with the side mustering up its 10th win in 10 games yesterday after downing Telecom 94-69 yesterday. Where nothing has changed for Cathay for the good, unfortunately for Taipower, things have failed to improve for the worse. With a mere two wins in 10 games, the side remains slumped in last spot with the turn of the year failing to bring with it solace and jubilant news for the side…

Trump's press secretary says there are 'real concerns' with mail-in voting. She's voted by mail 11 times.

Do as I say, not as I have done for the last decade. White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany has voted by mail 11 times in the past 10 years, sending in a ballot for every Florida election she's participated in since 2010, The Tampa Bay Times reports. She reportedly last voted by mail in Florida's primary just two months ago, shortly before she told reporters there is supposed "bipartisan consensus on the fact that mass mail-in voting can lead to fraud." McEnany's voting history is similar to that of her boss, President Trump, who has routinely voted by mail while making a stink over others who do the same. "The president is, after all, the president, which means he's here in Washington. He's unable to cast his vote down in Florida, his state of residence," McEnany said last week about the president's voting decisions. McEnany's defense of Trump came after he incorrectly asserted that Michigan illegally distributed millions of absentee ballot applications to its residents and threatened to withhold funding…
