The virus is expected to cause a nationwide tsunami of mail-in votes that could test state election officials and the embattled US Postal Service. But there is a simple (maybe even fun) way that we can support a successfully engaged Election Day and help one another pull off the basic but vital duty of citizenship. One friend asked me to verify I was me (and not a bot) when I asked out of the blue if he'd requested his absentee ballot yet. If someone on your list needs to register or confirm registration or request an absentee ballot, Vote.org has all those tools for every state. Voting early will reduce lines on Election Day and reduce your exposure to crowds from a coronavirus perspective.
