Ken Paxton will personally close all polling stations if more than 20 people show up to vote

Gonna repeat what I said in a different comment:

Encourage people to try to vote early everywhere. Texas has early in person voting from Oct 21 – Nov 1

If you vote early, you'll have time to come back again in case there's some last minute changes to the polling places open or some other problem. Plus you also don't then have to worry about something like being sick on election day

These are all excellent reasons. If I may add one.

I want to fuck Donald day one. So bad. Fuck him. My rage seethes waiting to be released into my ballot.

But otherwise spot on!
