Are you living away from the address at which you are registered to vote? Are you too lazy to get off the couch on election day?

VOTE BY MAIL. DO IT. YES. NO EXCUSES.

I’ve never actually voted in person, because I’ve been in college and grad school, and I’ve never bothered to change my registration (for various reasons, including refusing to become a citizen of a state where human rights don’t seem to matter *cough* TEXAS *cough*). So, I fully endorse voting by mail. It’s so easy and painless. I have friends that do this, too, just because they don’t have time to make the trek to a polling place or wait in line.

“Wait, how do I even register? Maybe I already am registered? I don’t knowwww.”

Go here or to one of the other 5,000 websites that can help you register.

“Ughhh, but voting by mail sounds complicated. How do I do that?”

Do you know what Google is? Google is your friend. Seriously. Just type “how to vote by mail” into Google, and a nifty widget has ALL THE ANSWERS. Use the drop down menu to choose your state. Some counties will have online applications that make things easier (like I personally use the online Los Angeles County application that takes 30 seconds to fill out).

“But I’m homeless. Can I still vote?”

YES, YOU CAN. YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO VOTE. This website has all the info you need.

“Ok, I did it. What now?”

Please reblog this! Make your friends do it! Stay informed! Eat some pizza!

boosting this for my disability bros. i wasn’t able to vote in the primaries because i was having a flare-up and couldn’t stand or sit in hard chairs. like hell i’m going to let my disability keep me from voting in the general election!

I got my vote-by-mail ballot yesterday. I could go to the polls and vote; my voting location is literally on the ground floor of my apartment building. But I have difficulty with the issue of imagined time constraints and figuring out beforehand what I’m going to vote, so I registered to vote by mail. 

This way, I can sit down with the ballot and work my way through it like any normal work I do, and when I’m done I can mail it in, probably before the election day. This week I’m going to be voting ALL. WEEK. LONG.
