I'm the one who tells you how it is...

(And don’t bother to tell me we all have to vote. I guarantee that every member of DU is gonna vote including the RW trolls here. )

It’s going to be a blue tsunami: Republicans who hold the position of dog catcher are going to be voted out with spite. There is a delicate balance in this nation and Trump the Malignant has caused a disturbance such that the masses are no longer taking their freedoms for granted. The election of 2018 was a warmup to this: that’s why the Trumpistas pulled out all stops early: they knew what was coming early on. If it were close or he was coasting he wouldn’t have shown his hand so soon.

I have a few reflective posts coming from my 60 years of being politically aware - I look forward to your feedback.

Now GOTV!!!! (Ha Ha - beat you to it)

Did I say we must all vote?

true, that remains to be seen. However there is nothing
wrong telling people to vote, it could be a rallying cry,
a sign we all are together. So you did vote or you will vote
and that's what counts the most, right. So I leave you
with this, Vote, tell others to vote.

I wish I could vote just below my signature of a check just before I deposit it,... it would be so convenient.

Am I overlooking something by not voting early?

My polling place is quite accessible and I have no fear of interference from interlopers. Any reason for me to vote early?

Thanks.

Wouldn't you wish you had voted?

A friend's former husband is very ill, a rare cancer. Six weeks ago she said that her primary goal was to keep him alive at least long enough to vote. We made it!

What if I don't make it that far?

So now I have a Plan B. I'm going to take advantage of early voting on Monday.

And I'm staying home all weekend in a hermetically-sealed life bubble.

LOL!
