Wonder Land: Surveying the record of his three years in office, Mr. Biden has
decided his re-election turns on two events: the Capitol riot of 2021 and Mr.
Trump’s efforts to reverse the 2020 presidential election results in several
states. Images: Getty Images/Zuma Press Composite: Mark Kelly

Rye, N.Y.

once. But over the past two years I’ve registered three times. I might even do
it again—for the reason progressives say they endorse: I want my vote to count.
