Got a mailer from the Wisc Elections Commission

It had information on HOW to vote as well as what Trumpublicans hate: an absentee ballot application.

Read the mailer, filled out the application, and mailed it back. Figure if I get the absentee ballot, I know the mail is working. If not, I'll vote early in person.

Anyone else get this?

Can you drop ballot off somewhere? Not all states allow for this. TN does not.

Please read this brief post. Sounds like DeJoy might be ratfucking the programming on remaining sorting machines. Just a guess from the sounds of things.

Milwaukee has a list of 15 places to bring your ballot, available 24/7.

There are several thousand municipalities in Wisconsin.
Your town, village or city has a clerk. You can drop off an absentee or vote early at any clerk's office in WIsconsin.

Early Voting Statrts on September 17, 2020:
This is the deadline for Wisconsin’s city, village and town clerks to mail absentee ballots for November 3 to registered voters with requests on file.

At 47 days before the election, Wisconsin gives its voters significantly more time to receive and return their ballots than most other states.

Since my voting place is less than a block from my place, I'm not worried about getting there.

I'll just keep my mask handy.

No such provision for dropping off ballots in TN, so I will vote early, in person.

Definitely not entrusting my vote to DeJoy's dystopian nightmare.

in person has proven to be very difficult for me physically. Glad to see these go out.
