Our neighborhood polling place opened today for early voting, and we went over and voted this afternoon. It looked to me like a pretty conservative crowd.
Pragmatism: the relentless pursuit of seeing things as they really are.
Dropped off my ballot. Drive up, no waiting. How my county (Weld) votes will be an indication how much it has been infected by the woke virus. Not too worried but hoping the state has had enough and wakes up in time.
Got the windshield replaced today, had lunch while I waited and the early voting poll was in the same parking lot. Figured I was there and had the time so avoid the lines next week. voted right after I finished lunch. Line at the library was down the hall and out the door but it moved quickly. Poll workers said it had been like that all day.
Not that my vote for president is going to count in Alaska, 3 electoral votes and the 2nd to last to close the polls, it will be decided by then. But more importantly, voted to get rid of ranked choice voting. I urge members if it ever comes on the ballot in your state, vote against it, it is a gigantic cluster fuck of election rigging.

All just remember it doesn’t matter if it looks like a landslide for us or against us. None of that matters until the last ballot is counted so GO VOTE even if the media is telling you what you want to hear or that you’ve lost and it doesn’t matter.
It is the easiest of civic duties and your vote matters don’t be convinced it doesn’t in either direction.

My wife and I voted today. Less than 15 minutes total. Took us longer to drive to the polling place. This was in Granville County, NC. I’ve heard there are really long lines in the more populous counties like Wake that includes Raleigh.
In my small county of roughly 59,000 residents we have just shy of 45,000 registered voters.
This is our first election administered with the two week no excuse absentee voting law.
Estimated election turn out was 72%, or 32,000 voting.
As of this morning we were pushing 8,000 voters who have driven to one of two locations within the county to cast their ballots prior to election day.
We have a challenger who will be monitoring the absentee counts, and a watcher who will be at one of our polling locations on election day.
Updated to add that we had 1,454 voters show up today alone. This brings our current turnout to 22.3%.This message has been edited. Last edited by: a1abdj,
I put mine in a drop box yesterday. This year the ballots didn’t have a detachable section that you can use to track your vote. They’re not even hiding it anymore.

You are absolutely correct. It's on our ballot this year and I will be voting against it.
My vote in a dark red county in a red state is pretty meaningless, but it does make me feel better. I'll be going in Tuesday morning.

I voted at our library on Thurs. The lady took my DL, gave it a good look, held it up and looked at me and then back at it. I took my cap off. She thanked me. I said,"No. Thank you".
