I voted!

[acelightning]

I filled out my ballot and slipped it into one of the collection boxes - no, it didn't say "Property of the Republican Party" - I live in New Jersey, not California.

Congrats, and thank you for voting!

I agree with something Robert Heinlein wrote a long time ago: "If you don't vote, you forfeit the right to complain aboutwhoever won"

[franklanguage]

Totally agree!

[lynnenne]

Do ballot boxes in California actually say that?

[acelightning]

Apprarently this appalling story is true.

[lynnenne]

Good lord! That's insane.

The Republican establishment considers all Democrats to be "liberals" (which is a dogwhistle for "commies"), who don't deserve the right to vote. That's how they justify messing with the voting process.

I'll definitely check out that link. I voted absentee, with the help of my mom a few weeks ago. I am waiting with baited breath, as I'm sure a lot of us are doing. Btw, a neighbor and I watched Joe Biden's town hall meeting on Thursday evening, and we both agree that it was a big win!

Yay for voting!

My entire household voted by mail and all of our ballots have been confirmed accepted.

Hi, acelightning! I'm in New Jersey also. My dropbox is about half a block from my house so it couldn't have been much more convenient unless they sent a valet to pick it up.

I voted by mail for California as an absentee voter today!

I voted by mail in ballot which I got an email yesterday saying was counted!
