I live in a district where polling place access is civilized, so my wife and I voted on Sunday and did a whole morning hike and lunch with it. The downside to early voting is that you've taken your one available genuine action and then you have a longer period to sit and stew without even that slight release to look forward to.
But since we live in NY-17 - one of three Congressional districts in the United States that went for Harris but still elected a Republican Representative (Mike Lawler), we get a lot of fun extra attention, much of it lousy. Speaker Johnson is in town today to do a joint press conference saying that the Justice Department was referring concerns about some mailers to the FBI: LINK
The pretext, of course, doesn't matter. But even in southern New York State, where voting has always been as easy to access as walking down the street, I now face the possibility of having my vote be compromised by a top-to-bottom corrupted Federal Government.
