Just a question that I'd to get input for.

Vote early in the day or later? Which, and why?

ASAP. Before any “water pipes burst” or other Rat shenanigans.

I don’t like long lines, just me.

I vote early, roughly not long after our local polling station at a volunteer fire department opens.

Reckon it depends on what else you got to do that day, but I like voting first thing in morning to make sure it gets done.

Luckily, I’m walking distance to a polling location (church), so I’ll probably hit it on the way to work.

As a disabled veteran, I vote whenever my lower back tells me to.

Your vote counts more if you wait until the next day to vote.

Both work for me. Plus I try to get a 3rd vote in around noon.

Seriously take the day off. If you want to avoid lines, don’t go early in the morning or later in the evening. The middle of the day works fine. If you want to keep an eye on what’s going on, vote at the end and then stay there until the totals are done.

IF YOU VOTE LATE..., BE PREPARED TO STAND IN A LONG LINE. ANYONE IN LINE AT POLL CLOSING TIME IS ALLOWED TO VOTE. I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS PEOPLE AT PAST ELECTIONS MERELY SAY "THE HELL WITH IT" RATHER THAN STAND IN LINE FOR AN HOUR OR SO!

I vote election day. I’ve definitely done it for the last eight years for sure. In Maryland, I would vote, but I always knew it was pretty meaningless since the state is so damn blue. Being in Florida, it’s so much more fun.

If you’re a dead Democrat the protocol is to vote early and often.

Early, never know what could happen to you or the poll later.

If you work the answer is pretty obvious. You have no choice but to vote late
unless you can get off work or leave and come back after voting.

If you have all day it shouldn't make any difference when you go,
but I do recommend you go before the working people start showing up
to save them time in line.
