If Republicans had mailed in their votes, or voted early, there would be no issue. Waiting for in person voting bit us in the butt.
I always vote early. One reason is the convenience of avoiding long election day lines and the other reason is that I could be sick on election day or unable to vote for another reason.
In states that don’t use the traditional precinct system like Arizona, a good strategy would be to vote in the liberal areas of the county since you can be assured that their machines will be working perfectly. It also has some side benefits: You can clog up the liberal voting sites which may discourage their voters from having to stand on line, also it will get the liberal’s hopes up. “Look at the strong turnout in Democrat areas.” Combine that with their stating that turnout is low in conservative areas, and hopefully they’ll get overconfident.
