Elections Why is there record breaking early voting?

Why? Because this is the most contentious election since gore v bush. Most people have a very strong visceral reaction to one candidate or the other. Me, I hate them both. Well, I can’t say I hate kamala, but I won’t vote for her either.
this is fantasy. no one gives a shit about kamala harris lmao any visceral reaction in this election is solely on trump, whether positive or negative.
 
I am envious. I can’t wait for this to be over.
I hear ya. I just hope Kamala wins or it won’t be over.
I’ve also gone from not really liking her during 2020 primaries, as I thought she and others on the stage were stealing Bernie’s thunder, to accepting her as anyone but trump, and now into a fan of hers. I think she is genuine and actually cares about outcomes, humble enough to know she doesn’t know more about everything, wise enough to listen to other perspectives in order to make informed and correct decisions, strong enough to stand up to any adversary.
She’s a very impressive woman who’s dedicated her life to public service.
 
I think part of it is that republicans wised up that demonizing mail in voting/early voting isn't a winning strategy. A lot more republicans are voting early and by mail than any previous election. Add to it that a lot of people are worried about election day nonsense from freaks doing shit like 'policing the polls' means more early voting.
 
I was watching tv and this commercial came on for “white dudes for Harris”
It resonated with me , so I’m glad I waited and didn’t early vote because I changed my mind because of that ad

Uh, no. The maga crowd hate anyone not trump and have been calling her “ho” as in “joe and the ho must go”

Wow, I think you’re in love with her
 


I am praying that some new candidate swoops in and beats them both. I am not lying when I say I am voting for my cat. If for no other reason than to piss my wife off because she has an absolutely visceral response to trump
 
Trump said early voting is so good, it is cheating. It is like hitting a double in Olympic judo. Plus, GOP is trying to make voting day as shitty as possible by sending the lines to vote across the street, so it is better to get it done when you can.

I’m not gonna try and tell you who to vote for. I’m in a swing state and can’t afford casting a vote for trump by voting for a cat. I do think she will be a fantastic president if she wins.
 
It's been very heavily promoted both online, in ads, and by the candidates. I don't remember it being a thing before or at least being clealry communicated as a possible option.
 
There seems to be a lot of anxiety in general this election. A lot of people appear to have these apocalyptic outcomes in their heads so they feel the need to do something about it. Kind of like Iike how last election had record turnout. Just my guess on this.
That's literally every election and the outcome is without fail a big fat nothingburger

Only retards care about these fake oligarchy elections
 
I'm in my 40's and didn't realize "voting early" was really a thing until my wife told me last week she voted with zero lines, no wait at all, etc.

People are fishing a bit too much for some underlying edge on who all these votes are for. Most likely, it's normal people who remember having had to wait 45 minutes, an hour, more...and now see they can stop in at their local city hall for 5 minutes a week earlier and not worry about waiting.

"She" being Kamala? Or his cat LOL?
 
2020 had issues with polling places in which some places got shutdown for a variety of reasons and a water pipe busted so people are not taking any risks.
 
Over 65 million voters have voted early
Why?
Is it mistrust of the voting machines?
Is it paranoia about “stolen elections” at 4 am?
Is it convenience, time management?

Not wanting to stand in line to vote after working all day?
Is it passion- Can’t wait to vote because of emotion?
Is it some kind of weird flex?

Those are some of the reasons I came up with, I’m sure there ls more

But it’s “something” it’s definitely not normal.

I’m leaning towards the “stolen election “ at 4 am because for the first time, Republicans are leading the charge in the numbers by quite a bit
Independents are way up too
But with no pandemic to interfere, no “6 feet apart and facemasks” the voting machines “fixed “ or at least independently tested for accuracy, voting laws reviewed and changed in some cases, I’m curious what you guys think it is ?
Mail in voting is down slightly, i think that was a Covid thing in 2020

What say you?
Bc this election is fucking important. People are voting early bc of the significance of the results
 
Only in Portland
Tbf we don’t know who’s responsible for that yet. The proud boy’s have a home base a few miles north of Portland. They just don’t come out much since they got their literal, actual asses kicked by a bunch of lefties last time they tried to start shit
