📢 Attention: #Georgia Voters!
📞 Call and write your State House Representative on Monday morning, and ask them to OPPOSE SB 3EX tomorrow (Monday)!
We support CGG's letter outlining why the continued use of the QR-code system is NOT LEGAL.
GA counties should use the next few months to prepare to use our backup voting method, the way 70% of the nation votes. Don't give the current administration an excuse to question all of our ballots come November -
🗳️ Oppose SB 3EX!

I made a little tool that helps me get around on the #mbta in #boston. Based on a paper I read in grad school, it shows you a range of possible arrival times rather than a single (usually wrong) estimate.

Let me know what you think?
