So first day of early voting, I'm going to write her in, vote for my local and state reps that I know and trust, send some more money to the Green party, and then go home and try to forget this election is even going on...
I'm a bit jealous you got to vote for her already!
We're considered a swing state this time around, so things are getting tense and ugly.
I don't get to do that. I read this AM that NY consistently steals from the statewide 999- budget to fill in gaps in the state budget. In some cities, no idea what floor of a high-rise is calling.

Hey! my dear friends or soon-to-be's, JtC could use the donations to keep this site functioning for those of us who can still see the life preserver or flotsam in the water.
Just rechecked my status, and I'm still active Green. So they didn't purge me. As soon as it comes in, it'll be filled in and dropped off at the closest county ballot dropoff: I want my involvement in this travesty to be _done with_.
(Believe it or not!) where we can actually check to see that our ballot got counted. We didn't know until we were poll watchers during the Primary, it's sort of buried on the Secretary of State website. But we checked, and were counted. We will do so again this time around.

yes. Actually, two: A little over a decade ago a State Representative from my district got a law passed saying you cannot take water from one watershed to supply a city/people/development in another one. But my current congresscritter is trying to repeal it. I voted for her opponent today, Jaime Alvarez.

In Utah Misty Snow got the Dem nomination to run against Tea-GOP Senator Mike Lee, who is known for shutting down the federal government and costing Utah taxpayers $1 million in an emergency appropriation to re-open our national parks at state expense.
Snow is a pretty good candidate for the 99 Percent.
Our country is failing its citizens on issue after issue. Congress is able but unwilling to act on these issues because congress primarily consists of people who have never been poor and do not understand the needs of the lower and middle classes. I am running for U.S. Senate to change that.

stumping for Hillz. He's going to speak on the UofA campus at the Arizona State Museum. I don't know what the capacity of that venue is but it's nowhere near big enough for the crowds he drew at Reid Park or the TCC. I'll probably go over and check it out. I wonder if Grijalva will introduce him like he did at those other two appearances.

We wanted decent healthcare, a living wage and free college.
The Democrats gave us Biden and war instead.
We drop off at a box up at townhall, then check online in a few days to make sure it arrived safely. Our only difficult choice this year was for school board, required some online searches for info as we were away during the candidate forum. Of course huge swaths of the ballot remained empty, but that's life in AZ. I admire your perfectly filled in oval...not always easy with the requisite ballpoint pen! Now to save some trees and mailing costs, we need an option to access the candidate/referenda info online instead of via paper booklet. I will say the permanent early voting system seems to work well in AZ. I put my VOTED EARLY sticker on my backpack next to the JILL one in the hopes of attracting a few questions...or attacks, we shall see.

She's got write in status here

Mailing it in, or hand-delivered?

Mailing it in this morning
I am on the "permanently early voting" list.

My CO ballot is being mailed to me today.
Just rechecked my status, and I'm still active Green. So they didn't purge me. As soon as it comes in, it'll be filled in and dropped off at the closest county ballot dropoff: I want my involvement in this travesty to be _done with_.
Watch the reported totals on election day
Make sure at least one Stein vote shows up for your locality.
Now interviewing signature candidates. Apply within.
We have a system in Arizona...
(Believe it or not!) where we can actually check to see that our ballot got counted. We didn't know until we were poll watchers during the Primary, it's sort of buried on the Secretary of State website. But we checked, and were counted. We will do so again this time around.

... Arizona is a progressive State??!?
When Cicero had finished speaking, the people said “How well he spoke”.
When Demosthenes had finished speaking, the people said “Let us march”.
In one little way,
yes. Actually, two: A little over a decade ago a State Representative from my district got a law passed saying you cannot take water from one watershed to supply a city/people/development in another one. But my current congresscritter is trying to repeal it. I voted for her opponent today, Jaime Alvarez.

Will require a "write in" for me

Great to see a Green Party Senate candidate in AZ

A vote for Jill
Is a vote for neither Trump nor Clinton.
Beware the bullshit factories.
Correct!
And a "No" vote for the duopoly.

super cool!
super cool!
will take my photo at home today.
AZ green.
Sanders is going to be in town tomorrow,
stumping for Hillz. He's going to speak on the UofA campus at the Arizona State Museum. I don't know what the capacity of that venue is but it's nowhere near big enough for the crowds he drew at Reid Park or the TCC. I'll probably go over and check it out.

please report back
on what you see and hear there?
For sure.
I'm thinking about making a sign: Care About Emails Yet ?

Do it!
Excellent.

If only we could ensure your vote will be counted correctly.
Good luck.

Cool! Didn't think to take a photo of mine but it is cast...
