I am not taking any chances. Not mail it in, not taking it in during the disputed early voting. Taking it in bright and early next Tuesday.

I pulled up what I could on the county website. In 2016 we had about 124,000 voters total in the general (counting everything - mail in, early, voting day). This year, a week into early voting, we have over 63,000. We have another 2 weeks of early voting to go. In 2016 we ended up with about 60% of registered voters actually showing up to vote. All indications are that it will be much higher this year.
