We'll see how it goes. I ordered an absentee ballot too last week. Hasn't come in yet.
I've been voting in-person absentee (where you go stand in line on a Saturday morning at the county election board instead of Tuesday morning at a church) since the 2000 election, when I actually had to stand in line for a couple of hours outside the principal's office in an elementary school (talk about triggering some PTSD). That's not a good option for me this time, so I signed up for "don't even show your happy arse up" absentee voting.
You and me both, brother.
I totally get the absentee vote if it’s a time or distance thing. But, if I can get to mailbox, I can get to my voting location.
It is standing in line for some times hours that is a problem for some of us. I know there have been times when I stood in line so long my O2 tank would have run out.
I guess I’ve been lucky. I haven’t had to wait more than 5 or 10 mins in line to vote. Sometimes I’ve just walked right in, gotten a ballot, voted, and was back outside within a couple minutes.
Having said that, I’m sure I’ll be waiting half the day in line in November.

Yeah the lines can get pretty long here and I'm not one for standing in line much especially while wearing a mask cause there sure won't be much "social distancing" going on.
The last time I voted early the line was just as long or maybe even longer than voting on election day.
