    Another place to promote voting by mail:

    https://www.ncsl.org/elections-and-campaigns/table-18-states-with-all-mail-elections

    You get a pamphlet in the mail with the candidate’s face, website, positions and philosophies about 2 weeks beforehand. I signed up for alerts, so I also know when the ballot has been sent and when it has been received. I can mail it through the regular mail or through designated ballot boxes that are usually by libraries.

    You can vote naked or at a park. Or in your swimsuit, it’s not hard. Vote by mail, all the cool states are doing it.
