*️⃣ This presumes one is a registered American voter.

And one lives in a swing state where one's vote matters.

Biden was only 600,000 votes behind Trump in 2020 in TX. In fact, he received more votes in TX than in NY. It would be great if they would do something to stir the base here, especially since we have a 2 week voting period with polls open at least 9 hours in the first week and at least 12 hours in the second week.

Well downballot is also a thing. House, Senate, judges, whatever.

If you don't vote in a safe state, then you're not in a safe state.
