Play Ball and Fight FascistsCivic duty done, bring on the redistricting in Virginia.
*Hate* that we have to do this, but it's ages past time to fight fire with fire.
Nomdeb@cafechatnoir Fistbump from a fellow Virginian. We got texts a couple of days ago to say our absentee ballots were received and counted. I've been reminding everyone I know here to vote.
Yeah, we hit up the county government center - nice to see a steady stream of folks coming in to vote.
@cafechatnoir Yes. When my husband dropped off our ballots at the ballot box a few days ago, he said the parking lot was full. This is so critical. Heart is in my mouth until we get the results.

@six_grandfathers_mountain @cafechatnoir @gwaldby We always drop ours off in the county ballot box. There's no postal service involved. :)

Yea that's the way😁 but I'm worried _IF_ the reports are true, that the #USPO is underfunded, then the folks who vote in the Nov. #midterms2026 #midterms might have their #MailinVoting "lost in the mail or "return to sender" 😱
The Postal Service may be out of cash in 2027 without Congress' help, postmaster says
