And possibly risk not getting to vote at all? A pileup up on the local freeway, a bridge going to your polling station gets closed (Does Chris Christie ring a bell) a fire alarm is pulled and the fire department shuts down a 3 block area, etc. etc. Don’t get cute with your vote. Vote. Vote early. Vote in person!
Many states have only a few polling locations for early voting, compared to 10x-100x that on election day. On top of that, Ohio early voting in person involves filling out an absentee ballot. The only advantage is ensuring your ballot doesn't get lost in the mail. It could still be lost by the election board, or deemed invalid for a number of reasons common to absentee ballots. Voting in person on election day in Ohio is better, in my opinion.
You should use the extra time to get any and all Trump supporters to the polls for early voting. Nag them, offer rides, drag them if you have to. This is the advantage of early voting, but it is only an advantage if you are actively using it to increase Trump supporter turnout.
I'd do the regular vote if you can. I have to early vote because I'm moving a couple days before the election but I really hate that I'm giving them the early data
I feel confident. I regularly travel from Youngstown, to Cleveland, to Sandusky and as far as Ashland south. Huge differential in the support for Trump versus Biden.
How does Youngstown look? Back in 2016 I saw someone near Lordstown SELLING Trump signs. Thats how I knew Trump was getting Ohio. If those hard-core union areas go with him again he should do well.
Suburban area inside I-275 is half and half going by the signs. Go north of I-275 just a smidge and it’s full blown MAGA flag waving Trump loving red.
Also there’s a gigantic Trump flag on I-275 between 71 and 75. I’m talking fucking gigantic majestic blue 15ft Trump 2020 flag waving over the interstate every day underneath an American flag. It’s hard not to notice driving west.
Ohioan here. I live in a fairly-upscale suburb (found a cheap house with literally million-dollar houses nearby, so I bought it in hopes that crime would be extra low). I can jog and be in rural farmland, but an Aldi is about 10 minutes away.
Not going to lie: I see a ton of Harris/Biden signs in my neighborhood.
Ha! I'm in Madeira. Trump is everywhere. There were a few butthurt locals that called the City and the City had to post a tweet about the signs being allowed.\
My wife went to vote early in Ohio today, also in an incredibly blue county. She went without a mask. She was greeted by a temperature check, then asked to put a mask, scarf, face covering on. She refused. Then she was offered one, and my wife refused, said she just wants to vote and be done with it. The poll worker sequestered my wife away from others, made her wait several minutes, then brought over a fucking police sergeant who then harassed my wife. Accusing my wife of being difficult (which if you know my wife, she was not... she just knows her Rights).
Eventually, after all the harassment, she was able to cast her vote in the "VIP" section.
And in typical Ohio fashion, nobody stood up next to my wife... They continued to just file in, all wearing their masks, pretending like nothing happened. It's not like my wife made a scene, but they were intimidating her for sure.
I can confirm. I had my poll worker training on Monday and we are gonna offer a mask. If you don’t want to wear it we aren’t allowed to make a stink about it....I personally don’t give a fuck.
Early in-person voting = Good
Mail-in voting = Bad

voting on election day, better. : less time for them to find extra ballots to counter your vote.
early voting : lets the enemy know what they have to "Find"
I'll be voting at 6am on election day.
Batavia Ohio is Trump country, too.
Let's hope the lines are LOOOOOOOOONG.
Should I be voting early? I feel like I should vote day-of as to exacerbate the size of the red wave.
And I want to not give the Dems a head start in letting them know how much they need to cheat by

I agree. Your vote strategy will depend upon where you live and your situation. Do whatever you think is best, but be sure to cast your vote!

Jokes on you I can walk to my voting booth in five minutes. The DNC can drop a flaming oil tanker on the roads and I’ll just walk through the woods.
My worry is the dems closing the polling locations early for some covid excuse on Tuesday
Dems hell, I'm waiting on DeWine to do just that
Day of

What he said ^^^

I'm waiting until election day so they have less time to know how many fraudulent votes they have to manufacture.
How’s the enthusiasm for Trump in Ohio. He needs a win there.

In a Dayton suburb that has Trump signs outnumbering 5 to 1 over Biden. I think he's got it, but you never know.
Trump is diverting funds to blue states because he's so far ahead in ohio.
He already won ohio, now it's just up to you to run the score up

but how much of ohio is not in Columbus/Cinci/Cleveland/Dayton/Toledo
it's cities (blue) v rural (red) every time
Half and half. Ohio is way more populated across the whole state than most people think.
Vote in person, congratulations!
VOTE VOTE VOTE!!!
Vote early, vote often!
Shoutout from Cincinnati my boy!
More Cincinnati checking in. Western Hills and a good portion of the West side is nothing but Trump signs. Love to see it!
Ha! I'm in Madeira. Trump is everywhere. There were a few butthurt locals that called the City and the City had to post a tweet about the signs being allowed.\
All hail the I-275 mega Trump flag
I see it every time I go to my Mom's. <3
Good morning. Sunday Morning.

I've been there and have friends there 😎
Are you black, or a Trump voter?
Fellow Ohio Pede here, out the door on the way to vote as well. MAGA!
Shout out to BAT-uh-VEE-uh.
😏 I’m from Cincy.
Awesome. I voted yesterday. All Republican: Trump, McConnell.
There were a few uncontested races where the only choice was Democrat or write-in. So I had to vote for Mickey Mouse.
Republican party hard at work, as usual. They concede way too many local races.
Way to go O-H-I-O 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Don't wear a mask! The Ohio secretary of state confirmed that they are not required in order to vote!
I can confirm. I had my poll worker training on Monday and we are gonna offer a mask. If you don’t want to wear it we aren’t allowed to make a stink about it....I personally don’t give a fuck.
who knew russian trolls lived so close to me:)
You're a hero. Thank you for voting in person.
Thank you Batavia!

Isn't early voting just as safe as voting by mail?
Not sure, because I didn't even know about early voting.
Tell them about thedonald.win!
