Early voting takes place in person before Election Day. You don’t need an excuse to vote early — you can vote early even if you are capable of voting at the polls on Election Day. Most states offer early voting at this point.
Delaware, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, New York, South Carolina, and Virginia will let you vote early ONLY if you have a valid excuse for not voting on Election Day. This is technically NOT early voting, although it does take place before Election Day. We call this “absentee in-person voting.”

Show up with reason (Out of town Nov 6) in DE, KY, MS, MO, NY, SC, VI.
This is the ground game. For a city council-school board election I got 10 voters per weekday, 20-30 each Saturday to the polls early. 80% of them would not have voted without my ground game. How good is the Conservative ground game on Tuesday?
I really don’t like early voting because it provides too much time for fraud.
Fraud occurs more when a ground game by the opposition is not there to prevent it. That is true in both October and November. As one who has frequently seen vote fraud first hand, I can attest to there being no difference in timing.
TX early voting starts Oct. 22.
Also provides time to estimate results, and adjust strategies to take advantage of. If Ds see an R emerging ahead in one race, and another race shows a lock for D, they can shift $ & effort accordingly.
Ideally a vote should be a snapshot, no room for tweaking.

AMEN
Tell all your liberal acquaintances “ Don’t forget to vote November 7th.
My feelings exactly. The temptation is too great to find “some way” to turn a tide or build a buffer.
To avoid long lines all states will allow Democrats to vote a day late.
I think it hurt us in 2016, I always figured it benefited the lazy meaning advantage democrats. But from what I’ve heard (in states where you can tell who’s voting) it isn’t hurting us this year.
Despite living very near my regular polling place (traditionally I went as soon as the polls opened, often without sleeping much or at all the night before) I early voted last time, good experience.
Thoughts anyone?
The left coast with it’s all mail in ballots really sucks.
