Early voting check in!

Last edited Wed Oct 30, 2024, 01:45 PM - Edit history (2)

Who has done their part to help flush Trump, Fox, and their fascist goons down the sewer they came from? I voted straight Dem across the board (yes, even for school board, city council and CA propositions). And my vote was processed and counted! Proud to have done my part to help elect our first female president!



Edit: Register for ballot tracker if you haven't already! With MAGA loons destroying ballot boxes and wielding knives at polling places and threatening poll workers like the petulant screaming idiots they are, now would be a good time to register for ballot tracker (if you haven't already) and to make sure your ballot is processed and counted for!

Needless to say, voted for all Democrats, and in the races where no Democrat was running against a Republican, I wrote in Hillary Clinton (like I've been doing ever since 2016 and will do for the rest of my life ).

I've talked about this low life piece of shit before. I was very happy to vote for her opponent and to tell our local megachurches where they can shove it!

With the exception of 1 race in which there was no Dem running. Only a repuke and an Independent. I chose the Independent, knowing in this red hellhold called TN, the Independent is probably a Dem registered as an Independent so as not to be labeled "librul..."

This may or may not be the first time Texas turns blue since Jimmy Carter ran against Gerald Ford in the 1976 Presidential race, but it could be the year when Senator Ted Cruz gets fired by Texas voters

DH and Me, earlier that week, #2 son and his girlfriend.

Tomorrow #1 son will be down to cast his early ballot.

Alas, Son #3 is unable to vote as he is only 16.

Of course, we're in Iowa, so our vote doesn't really matter.

For Kamala, Bernie, and Becca. First time voting when the President, Senator and congressperson are all called by their first names. The Democrats will win those and all other positions, except governor.

In the bluest county in Florida. I was so eager to vote, the polls opened at 7 am and I was done voting by 7:30 on the 1st day of early voting. I'm glad I did because later in the day, there was a line outside of the building, and every day since.

The down ballot local races were all Republicans running unopposed, so I left them blank.
