The early voting for the Midterms is now available in many places. You can early vote at a polling place: https://www.eac.gov/voters/register-and-vote-in-your-state

Or you can use mail-in voting: https://www.eac.gov/voters/national-mail-voter-registration-form

It's highly recommended to avoid election day voting in person, and vote early.

That would be me. Why? There is a non-uniformed paramilitary force randomly arresting and killing unarmed US citizens in the streets for the last year. There have been multiple reports that this force will be tasked to “ensure security” around polling places.

    Ah ok. I am coming at it from a slightly different angle: voting in person means lines and lots of cameras and witnesses. It's not so easy to disappear a vote if you do it live and in person. Less convenient yes, and there could be nazi thugs but this one means enough to me that i plan to be a witness if there's something to witness.

    I hope there will be brave ones too, but asuming they will kidnap people at polling places or have some type of security incident in the days prior to dissuade voters, I think it’s safer to get as many people as possible to bank their votes now.
