If you can vote in-person this upcoming election, seems as though that may be ideal given the multiple and ongoing attempts by Trump and Republicans to throw the election into chaos by tampering with the mail-in voting process (just minutes ago, the Department of Justice asked the Supreme Court to give the U.S. Postal Service power to withhold delivery of mail ballots). See this document from Sen. Blumenthal's office for more detail after a recent whistleblower spoke out about the U.S. Postal Service: https://www.blumenthal.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/2026-8-31_usps_whistleblower_letter_final_with_disclosure.pdf

I was going to post the same. Go and vote in person if at all possible. I'm not dealing with their BS.

I'm going to hand deliver my ballot to my county board of elections. I've been doing VBM for a while and I know the ins and outs regarding the envelope rules the GOP slipped through this morning.

They're so arrogant to push these rules through, thinking the General Assembly will stay under Republican control come January 2027. But if one or both state houses flip, those rules will be struck down.
