Today is just the third day of early in person voting and it’s already at ~20% of the entire 2020 vote (both early and on election day)
Make sure to get out and vote!
I truly hope the good people of Georgia haven’t forgotten that Donald Trump attempted to steal their votes from them in 2020, and I hope they understand he is going to try to do it again if it’s anything short of a Harris/Walz blowout.
Oh he’ll try doing something like that again, regardless the raw voter counts and the candidate percentages. If it’s close he and his followers will through a hissy fit and the bullshit conspiracy theories about vote fraud will kick off again. If Harris wins by 10+% they will throw a hissy fit and start with a slightly different set of bullshit conspiracy theories. But I get what you’re saying: the latter scenario is easier to handle.
1 million early is huge when you realize the 2020 numbers:
Biden - 2,473,633
Trump - 2,461,854
We made a serious error in judgement today… My wife volunteered to deliver 250 election flyers for the local Democratic party.
So I was like “Cool, I’ll drive and do security.”
We got about, I dunno, 15 houses in and she’s like “I can’t do this by myself!”
Fine, I didn’t volunteer, but I have an electric wheelchair, I’ll help.
2 apartment complexes later and we are WIPED.
I think maybe we hit 50 or 60 out of 250? We’re just destroyed. LOL.
cool, more votes usually benefits democrats, despite from the strict mathematics/statistics point of view, doesn’t make much sense
It makes sense because the people who always vote (retirees with few-to-no hobbies) are overwhelmingly republican.
Come on now, rage-viewing Fox Entertainment News and posting racial slurs to strangers on Twitter counts as a hobby, doesn’t it?
I had to wait an hour to vote today in my area with a relatively small population (NW area of GA). That’s never happened before, at least not with early voting.
I assume you are in the Dalton area? Maybe Trenton? No need to answer, it’s just interesting to see a fellow lemmyite from the same general region. I’m in the Chattanooga area and have heard similar things. These wait times seem odd this early, but I’m really happy it seems early voting turnout seems to be exceptionally healthy so far.
No. There was a tiny old woman that was just sitting there silently though.
