I'm familiar with the statement, but there might be other benefits to not having a moronic narcissist psychopath in the white house which should convince you to vote against Trump. We'll solve the stated problem later. Vote.

Badged an old comment from a thread I didn't remember seeing. Whoops.

Sentiment remains though.

Hubski votes. (Well, most of us)

Thanks, yo.

I cast my ballot a week ago. Got up at 7 AM (that means this is a BIG deal), was there just after the place opened, and I was both delighted ('cuz covid) and appalled ('cuz peeps should vote) how few people there were. It was a huge room with maybe 50 election workers, my wife, myself, and one other guy :(.

Most of my fam went the vote-by-mail (but drop it off at the supervisor) route. Found way more people there than when I early voted at a booth for primaries.

In Texas, it's illegal for me to vote by mail without declaring a disability. Why? Because voter fuckin' suppression.

Found this bad boi, but no follow up.

There remained enough ambiguity that I decided to just go and do it in-person. No regerts.

The latest Texas GOP stunt is attempting to throw out 125,000 votes from Houston (read: mostly Democrat votes) because they were cast at drive-thru polling sites. Their argument was, in a nutshell, "we don't like it and didn't agree to it". Pathetic to behold.
