Voting from 6am to 7 pm. I will never understand why they do not make it until 8pm. The traffic in Northern VA is brutal. If i cant early vote, I get there as close to 6am as possible, although this was a special and there was no line at all.

Just hearing this now. I was worried, although it should have been a slam dunk. There are a bunch of Republican signs near where I live and I was afraid that the ridiculous bathroom issue that brought us Youngkin was gaining traction again.
