Is anyone reconsidering their decision to vote by mail?

[RDANGELO]

With Trump trying to screw the Post Office, is anyone reconsidering and looking at voting in person?

[WVreaper]

1. Thinking about early voting.

[LisaL]

2. I can't reconsider since I already asked for a ballot.

[ehrnst]

30. You can request provisional ballot in person if you have already requested an absentee ballot.

So yes, you can.

[Thomas Hurt]

3. Mail was never a real option for me, taking a day off work to early vote in person.

4. I'll vote early... Red Don is such an asshole

[SheltieLover]

5. Absolutely voting early in person

Was going to vote by mail due to tRump virus!

[Luciferous]

6. I already requested a ballot but will drop it off instead of mailing it.

[OnDoutside]

8. Dropbox and early.

[Crunchy Frog]

7. Yes. We're planning to do early voting now.

[redwitch]

9. I will vote in person.

Rural village in upstate ny. Masks and all safety protocols will be observed and we can do it safely.

[MomInTheCrowd]

10. Yes/no with Thanks to Maggie Toulouse Oliver, fantastic NM AG

We have a great system in NM. I will early vote in person. Multiple sites, multiple days. Would not be afraid to vote by mail as I did in the primary. Just vote early! PS. She was interviewed on NPR this morning.

[Squidly]

11. Polling place is right accros the street

So its an easy choice for me. Mask up and stand in line. Not letting him cheat me out of my vote!

[Skittles]

12. no way would I vote by mail while this fascist fuck is "president"

NO WAY

[iemitsu]

13. Everyone in my state votes by mail.

[RockRaven]

14. About half the time I drop it off in the ballot drop-box at city hall anyway

So I probably will do likewise this time.

This time it won't be a procrastination-related reason.

[CTyankee]

15. There's a drop box at city hall. That's where we're going...

[Doreen]

16. No voting in person in Washington State.

I will fill out my ballot and drop it in the box as soon as I am done. No waiting till even the next day. They have not stolen our boxes yet but I would drive to Seattle to get them in a box. If they steal the boxes I will take peoples ballots when they are done with them and take them to whatever box if they can't. I hate to say this but even if they are voting for trump I would help. I know it sucks but who am I to deny them the right that I am fighting for all of us to have.

[Dagstead Bumwood]

17. Initially we were going to do it all by mail.

And, we have already requested the ballots via mail. However, once we complete them they'll not be going back through the mail. Instead, we've decided we'll drive the our count BOE and place them into the drop box.

So, a slight deviation from the original plan.

[stillcool]

18. we're going to drop it somewhere..

the post office, or a drop box...but we won't be voting in person.

[meow2u3]

19. I just requested my ballot today

I gave myself the extra time necessary to allow for the criminal obstruction of the mail. I intend to use either a drop box or hand delivery to the county elections office. I will not send my ballot through the mail and I strongly suggest you do likewise.

[Vinca]

20. I decided long ago come hell or high water I'm voting in person.

I'll dress up like a bubble girl if I have to, but my vote's going to be counted. My husband will be the bubble boy.

[samnsara]

28. stay safe!

[VarryOn]

21. Anyone who has gone out the least little bit lately....

To the grocery store, doctor, bank, work, etc needs to vote IN PERSON. I'm taking NO chances!

[safeinOhio]

22. Looking into hand delivery of my ballot.

Township hall and my polling station is across the street. I’ll have to call the Township Office and see about doing it that way.
Was in our post office today and asked the lady about what’s going on on. She went off off on tRump.

[TheCowsCameHome]

23. I'll deliver it to my town clerks office in person.

...Of course he got in the shit some years back for anti- Muslim comments on FB, which still troubles me.

[FoxNewsSucks]

24. Dropping it off

I usually voted early before. I mailed my ballot in the primary a few weeks ago.

Now I will drop it off in person to make sure it gets there.

[EllieBC]

25. I vote absentee as I'm in Canada BUT

if I were living in the US I would go vote in person. Broken glass, volcano, hurricane, plague, whatever. I would not take my chances with mail if I lived there.

[Arkansas Granny]

26. Yes. I'll mask up and do early voting. There has never been a long line before, but

this year might be different. I've also considered taking my absentee ballot directly to the County Clerk's office and dropping it off.

[samnsara]

27. nope..its all we have in wash state but i will walk it to a drop box

[FirstLight]

29. I live rurally

They stopped having live polling places last year, now we have the big silver boxes at grocery stores and the post office... I have often wondered if that was even "safe" or legit counted...

[ehrnst]

31. I would trust the PO more than the grocery store.

In my county we have them at the courthouse as well. I will use that one.

[tblue37]

32. Yes. We never have lines, so I am going to the polls after all. nt

[BlueIdaho]

33. I live in a small town so we're doing hybrid Absentee voting.

We’ll get our ballots in the mail about 45 days before the election. It’s a 10 minute drive to the election office - so it’s super easy for us. We’ve done this for the last five years.

[Awsi Dooger]

34. No

I signed up for absentee in Florida beginning in 2018. It has worked well. Once you are on that list they keep coming until you change the preference.

I see no need to change. The ballots arrive early. I will mail immediately. The late cycle types are the ballots at risk.

Besides, my experiences at Florida early voting have not been nearly as positive as when I early voted in Nevada. The Nevada process was a breeze, inside shopping malls or countless convenient locations. In Florida I have gone to libraries and been immediately surrounded by right wing surrogates as soon as I parked. They converge immediately and attempt to give you material, plus shouting things. Even when you say no they'll often throw it at you anyway. I can just imagine what it will be like this year, without the former protections, which were not enforced anyway.

Then once inside the early voting site as my ballot was being scanned I had an old lady who was in charge of the precinct ranting to me about voter fraud. Seriously...and this woman is running things, in a Miami-Dade County early voting setup? That was 2016. I immediately decided to switch to absentee and am glad I did.

[Lucid Dreamer]

35. I will still mail in my ballot.

But in my case I take it to a PO that's right across the hall from the Clerk of Elections office. They will cancel the stamp w/ postmark and time and drop into a bin that is delivered within an hour. I trust that.

[moonscape]

36. I'm in CA so many options in

my deep blue district. It’s an embarrassment of riches that should exist everywhere. The option I definitely won’t choose is USPS!
