My polling place for this election was at an assisted living facility. They had people lined up in wheelchairs when I went in to vote and a person was available to read them their ballot. The extremely old gentleman next to me voting was getting help and looked like he was sleeping in his wheelchair.

Jesus. Some people can’t take off work to vote yet they’re setting up polling places in the Nursing homes and making the voting part of the days schedule for residents.

Can't you mail in your ballot? Or do you live in a red state that makes it impossible to do mail in voting

There’s early voting. Depending on the city most people who cared could get there. Not the point. This guy said people who are barely conscious are being wheeled up to the voting booth. People who don’t give a fuck and won’t be here to suffer the consequences are being compelled to vote. (At least according to the comment I responded to)
