I’ve been reading several accounts in a couple of states, here in New Mexico and in Florida, of long lines and confusing practices with regard to early voting. While this is very likely given the huge voter turnout this election, it is still advisable to brave the possible chaos and get to the polls early to cast your vote. As difficult as it could be now, it could be a lot worse on November 4th.
If you requested an absentee ballot to vote by mail, then you must vote in this way. Period. You cannot vote in person in this election, unless you did not receive your absentee ballot. It would be advisable to check with your County Clerk’s office for all pertinent information. Here is a link to find yours by state. After clicking on your state, scroll down and and you will see information with regard to checking registration, early voting and polling locations. This website also has real stories and data and is updated daily.
Before you vote check the Obama website. It has a VOTER INFORMATION CENTER page. They also have a new page on their website for VOTER PROTECTION which has many valuable answers. Click the above links.
Regardless: DO NOT BE DAUNTED! Take a snack, some water, your ID, a great attitude, and VOTE FOR CHANGE TODAY.
I hand delivered my absentee ballot to the County Clerk’s Office.
