Is it weird how easy it is to early vote in Texas? Also the "I voted" stickers are pretty dope this year. Not as cool as a werewolf ripping his shirt off, but still cool.
I think it's became a bipartisan thing (albeit more hush hush for GOP) after the last few elections suggested that older people (who are likely Republicans) prefer it and preventing them causes problems for both party turn out (but again, Republicans).
The only reason GOP publicly hate on it is because that helps the "stop the steal" lies. And they flip flop on that message constantly.
I think the voting stickers vary based on where you are, mine was just “I VOTED / YO VOTÉ”
So jealous of that Michigan sticker. I just got a dumb eagle.
Where I live, early voting is the norm and election day is more like a deadline. The longer it's left, the more arduous it gets. Like shopping for Xmas gifts lol
Hmmm voting on the day of the election might be good for those who'd be willing to. Maybe I'm just being paranoid though.
Hopefully it stays easy and no one in the Texas government tries anything.
