Actually, she turned 110 on 10/28.

So quit your whining.

Wear your mask.

Social distance.

Get out and vote in person.

I already dropped of my ballot (which I had requested by mail). It's a little late to post this now, because today is the last day to vote early in most places and a huge percentage of voters have already voted.

But I do agree that if you haven't voted already and don't have the option to drop off your ballot this weekend or Monday, wear a mask, social distance, and vote on Tuesday!

Good on her. She most likely remembers the time when women were not allowed to vote and it's my guess she has never (and never will) miss an election in person.

I will happily utilize the available option of dropping off my mail in ballot (which has gone well here in Utah, a red state, for years) some time between now and Tuesday. If people want to go in person, more power to them. If there are other options available, it is perfectly reasonable for people to choose those instead.

Stay safe in Utah! I heard the state sent out an emergency text to all re: COVID yesterday.

. COVID or not she will go to the afterlife soon just based on age. So you idiots that are 40-50 years old, just risk waving another 40-50 years of possible life expectancy goodbye to vote in person

At 110, not so sure she is worried about anything anymore. She has already beaten the odds. Do you think she really wants to get to 120+?????

I vote in person whenever that is the only option - it isn't a matter of not being able to do it. Voting by mail is simply more convenient and since I believe in the overall integrity of the voting system I see no reason not to take advantage of it. I voted by mail when I lived in Florida, which has made vote by mail for convenience availabel for many years under Republican administrations with no issues or, as far as I was able to tell, complaint. We moved to MAssachusetts in 2018 shortly beforethe 2018 elections and voted in person because that was the only option. I love that MAssachusetts has joined the states making voting by mail available. I don't see how voting in person would make my vote more legitimate so I'll keep voting by mail when that option is available.

Voting by mail has been availabke for conveience in many states for many years. The only difference this year is that Trump has been trying to plangt doubt ahead of the election so that he has grounds to complain and contest if he loses.

And for the record, I believe Trumo is going to win the election and all this discord and contempt for our system that he has engendered will turn out to have been division and discord without even serving its purpose.
