We've had early voting going on this week, continuing next week at various locations. Participation seems to be pretty high, at least at the one close to me.

The wife and I voted early, in person on Tuesday. We are going to be in FL on election day. It's first time I have ever early voted. They said it has been busier than previous elections.

My wife and I will drop our ballots off at the local post office this weekend,
not that our votes will make a dime's worth of difference here in Commiefornistan.
I suspect every candidate we vote for will lose.

What about Steve Garvey??

People who vote early, not the absentee voters, are part of the problem.

On day, paper ballots, ID required voting ONLY.

If it's important to you,  you'll make time.  If you can't, absentee.

Voting day is prescribed.

This is Commiefornistan.. he will get beat like a rented mule
I will be amazed if he does better than 40/60.
My personal guess is he'll pull in somewhere between 35 and 40%

Del.

I'm fine with early voting but only for 7-10 days before election.

I don't like it anymore than you do, Incog.
Schiff belongs in prison, not the Senate, but it is what it is.

My wife and I will vote for Garvey, but we may as well be shouting at clouds

Schiff is the type of person that scares me.

I don't know if introduced I would be able to stop myself from Slapping Him. >:(

Early voting here started here on Oct. 21 at prescribed location.

I had to vote the exact same way as if it was November 5th. I stood in line for 40 minutes, showed my ID and was escorted to the voting booth.

I see nothing wrong with that. The only difference is I didn't have to wait in line for 2 hours.

I was not going to vote at all because the choices are so shitty.

and that's why early voters are part of the problem.

Listen, the shenanigans that are going on are all happening under the umbrella of making it "easier" to vote. So those people participating are helping to support that narrative, thus, they are part of the problem.

Voting isn't hard, it never was...it's the self-important people who believe their time is too "valuable" to show up on the prescribed day.

Not only that but now, if something happens to truly flip the script, you already voted...you cannot change your mind at the last moment.

I had planned on not voting at all.

In my opinion anyway, voting early is worse than not voting at all.

As I said, voting early, it plays into their hand.
