Attention Philly peeps:
I'm also reading there are similar issues in other counties in PA, so it behooves everyone to double check.

Ugh.

I plan to vote tomorrow. I can’t shake that Zeldin would try to challenge early voting if he loses.

I always vote same day, it's 1 block away with no lines ever, so I'm lucky it's that easy to ease mail-in anxieties.

I went to vote early on Friday and the place nearest my house had a 45-1 hour wait so they were sending us to a different early voting location about 15 min away. It was much quicker through that location but it was at least kind of nice to see how busy it was.
I feel like I will need to eat nothing spicy tomorrow or anything else that might upset my stomach.

My favorite holiday! I'm feeling oddly hopeful about tomorrow. Early vote and youth vote totals are astonishing and the typically hair on fire Twitter is relatively optimistic (and also entertaining as hell as the ship sinks).

This is a great thread that justifies some hopefulness. Yes he's a dem strategist but he's using non partisan data in his analysis and it's quite convincing

Well this sucks. 'Republican officials and candidates in at least three battleground states are pushing to disqualify thousands of mail ballots after urging their own supporters to vote on Election Day, in what critics are calling a concerted attempt at partisan voter suppression. In Pennsylvania, the state Supreme Court has agreed with the Republican National Committee that election officials should not count ballots on which the voter neglected to put a date on the outer envelope — even in cases when the ballots arrive before Election Day. Thousands of ballots have been set aside as a result, enough to swing a close race. In Michigan, Kristina Karamo, the Republican nominee for secretary of state, sued the top election official in Detroit last month, seeking to toss absentee ballots not cast in person with an ID, even though that runs contrary to state requirements. When asked in a recent court hearing, Karamo’s lawyer declined to say why the suit targets Detroit, a heavily Democratic, majority-Black city, and not the entire state. And in Wisconsin, Republicans won a court ruling that will prevent some mail ballots from being counted when the required witness address is not complete.' Republicans sue to disqualify thousands of mail ballots in swing states www.washingtonpost.com/elections/2022/11/07/gop-sues-reject-mail-ballots/

dc2london those who voted early in PA who have a ballot disqualified…are they giving them a way to rectify the ballot? Or just basically saying their votes won’t count.

I voted yesterday (mail in and will drop off today). As per usual, CA had a bunch of propositions to wade through. It really is annoying and you have to be so careful to read all the fine print and make sure your vote means what you think it means.
And I was really sad voting for Rep Jackie Spier’s replacement. I’m happy for her on her well deserved retirement. But the candidates to replace her were so uninspiring. I mean, I know I should be grateful a dem will take over regardless but I was quite spoiled being represented by her.

It appears to depend on your county. Some counties are attempting ballot curing (which, by the way, is a great way to stay involved after election day! Ballot cure calls are super important!!) (Sorry)

I can't look at any polls right now. I keep telling myself I have never once been polled, so maybe they are missing people like me.
I'm turning in our ballots tomorrow and crossing my fingers for good things. I'll be happy to not see Mike Lee's dumb face on nonstop political ads soon. Really wishing he would be gone but it's a long shot.

Just remember friends, we aren't going to know much tomorrow or even Wednesday. Don't forget to hydrate! And maybe get some stuff for morgsaritas.
