Tuesday is election day! Here's what DU members need to know.

This discussion thread was locked by Skinner (a host of the Announcements group).

As you know, election day is coming on Tuesday. We look forward to spending the day with all our DU friends as we take our first step toward taking our country back from Trump and his enablers. Here are a few things you need to know.


GET OUT AND VOTE!
I'm pretty sure it goes without saying here on DU that everyone needs to get out and vote! Then you can let your friends on DU know that you fulfilled your civic duty by displaying the "I voted" avatar image on all of your posts. Click on the "My Profile" link at the top of any page, then look for "Avatar Image" and click "Edit." The "I voted" image is under the "Slogans" subcategory:




DON'T GET BLOCKED OUT!
The DU administrators are doing everything we can to keep DU online and working properly, but there is still a chance that the site may not be available to everyone due to heavy traffic or worse. In the event of heavy traffic, we may need to block out some visitors so that others can still access the site. If that happens, preference will be given to visitors who have active DU accounts, with top priority given to Star Members.

-- If you are not a DU member, you can register for a DU account here.

-- If you are not a DU subscriber, you can purchase a Star Membership here.


WHERE TO GET INFORMATION IF YOU CAN'T ACCESS DU
Two years ago, on election day 2016, Democratic Underground was the victim of a crippling hack that forced us to take the site offline for weeks. Since then we have implemented numerous upgrades to improve the security of our site. But despite our best efforts it is still possible that we could be the victim of another attack. The risk is even greater around election time.

If the website becomes unavailable for any reason, we will post information on Twitter and Facebook to keep you informed. If you are a member of Twitter or Facebook, please consider following us on those platforms. Or you can bookmark the pages below just in case you need them later:

-- DU on Twitter: https://twitter.com/demunderground

-- DU on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/democraticunderground


Thank you for being a DU member. Go Dems!

None of us saw the election results playing out the way they did, and I’m not sure most of us (myself included) could have handled it. From a reputational standpoint, the site being unavailable was probably a best case scenario.

It was good to have the community. People may have been distraught but it was also a source of comfort and shared grieving. It was a huge blow that the site was inaccessible on election day 2016. It made a terrible situation worse.

This was at the height of the Iraq war. People have short memories. The Bush years were very demoralizing and the thought of four more years were unfathomable. It was a difficult night.

When I look at the line and see a candidate for Congress (or any office) with an R after the name, I think of it as being Trump's name instead. That makes it so much more enjoyable to vote for the Democrat!

Voted Yes on all three of our proposals, one of which is to allow everyone to vote by mail, no excuses needed. Voted Yes on legalizing marijuana, voted Yes on no more gerrymandering.

conversations with friends, colleagues and family. Amazing how many people seek me out and ask me how I voted on various ballot initiatives, and for which candidates (straight blue, needless to say).

I have also volunteered for the Dem candidate for my state House district, and have donated to numerous campaigns.

We have to get this done.

. . .an "I Voted" avatar next to my name immediately on Tuesday.

I'm an Election Inspector in NY and I'll be on "the other side of the table" from 5:30 am (opening up shop for 6 am poll opening) to 9:30 pm for locking up shop after the 9 pm poll closing.
Then it's on to an election night party.

That means I'll be essentially incommunicado all day Tuesday and won't be posting here.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Oh, wait a moment. I could put the avatar on Monday night, even though I won't be voting until next day. You see, I have been assigned to the very school gymnasium where my polling place is. So during a lull, I'll take a break and cast my vote then. No problem.

And if I had been assigned elsewhere, I would have ALREADY voted. By absentee ballot.

And:

Lupe Valdez (opposed hypocrite Gov. Greg Abbot)
whoever (opposed the heinous Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick)

And even more!
I voted straight Democratic!
