    I’ve been mailing in my ballot for years. Sitting at home and researching each candidate and proposition at my convenience is a game changer. (This year, my ballot had 15 propositions to unravel!) I don’t need to worry about getting to the polls - or dealing with the armed, lingering asshats.

    EVERYONE should be mailing in ballots.

      You don’t need to mail in to research candidates.

      At least in my state, you can just see who is on the ballot weeks and weeks ahead of time.

      Put $500 cash in an envelope and mail it to yourself. If you don’t trust that, drop your ballot in person. I voted yesterday and got to scan my ballot into the machine.
