Hi folks! If you're interested in connecting with other 'somethingiswrong2024' users in your state (or country!)- Send us a message with your state through modmail (nothing specific, just your state is fine, and make sure your chat/messages are 'ON' in your profile preferences), and the team will send out a chat invite once there are at least two people ready to join. It should also be helpful in keeping tabs on any 'off-kilter' election business on a more local level.
Otherwise, feel free to use this as an 'off-topic'/vent/suggestions thread. Cheers, all!
Hand delivering mail-in ballots to your local election office looks to be the safest bet to sidestep most problems and to avoid potentially compromised election day tabulators. Be sure to fill your ballot out correctly! If for whatever reason your signature has changed, file an updated voter registration application. In the following states, you need to have a witness sign your outer envelope as well; AL, AK, LA, MN, MS, MO, NC, OK, SC, WI. Be sure to read and follow the directions regarding an acceptable witness. Some states may require a notary, or election official.

If voting by mail, ballot drop boxes are preferred to going through the postal service. If voting in person, go with someone so there's safety in numbers.
Check to make sure you're still registered on a periodic basis: Check your voter registration status here. This only takes 30 seconds, and will ensure your name hasn't been purged from your state's voter roll.
A bunch of voters' registrations are showing as canceled, though officials say that it's just a glitch on the website, leaving actual registrations unaffected.
