114. BRAVO!!!
Wed Oct 7, 2020, 10:48 PM
Oct 2020

I was fortunate enough to be able to get a mail in/drop off ballot. I am so thankful for those who don't have that option and still take the risks to go in person. Your story sounds encouraging from the standpoint of the safety measures in place. So glad you could go at a non-busy time.

Just FYI - I live in a blue state, yet are surrounded by republicans signs in my 'suburbs' . Hard to believe. I see careless behavior too.

Maybe there will be a shocker and good folks like yourself can turn the red states blue! Thanks for your story!
