It is already getting stressful, ugh. I believe there was more than voter suppression on their part, but who knows for sure, no proof of it. Something very odd happened in my polling location for the first time ever. Yes the q anon wackos are pretty alarming. I hope we win the run offs and what ever dump and co are planning to try to overturn the election does not cause huge problems and delays.
