that has excellent early voting. I had originally thought I'd do vote by mail, but no. I'm going to do it in person early. If I get to a polling place and there's a line I'm not comfortable with, I'll just return later. I'll start on the first day of early voting so I have lots of time to make sure I can vote safely.

I'm in New Mexico.
