One Third May Vote Early

By Jeralyn

Early voting is already open in some states. Up to 1/3 of voters may vote before Election Day. I plan to vote early, just to avoid any problems and lines at polling places. I think it's a surer way to make sure my vote gets counted.

I'm wondering about the effect of any "October Surprise." It will be too late if it comes after enough people have voted.

Encourage everyone you know at work and in your social life to vote early. Don't take a chance on a last minute sleazy attempt by Republicans to change people's minds.
