Good thing I have a stockpile of books and yarn.

Also, having lived in Texas for 15 years, it bugs me that they missed the apostrophe in “y‘all.”

I‘m joining @howjessreads 📚📖 by having voted early and trying not to get sick with anticipation by reading as much as I can 💙

Lovesbooks87 Did mail in ballot and dropped it off at a drop box. Got an email the next day saying it was received! I took the 2,3, and 4 off of work because I know I am going to be stressing! Audiobooks have been my best friend lately! 4y
Schnoebs Oh this sounds wonderful!!!!! I really need to stop watching interviews and reading articles all the time. It‘s not going to change anything until elections and they all say the same thing pretty much. Hopefully getting some much needed reading done with help distract me! 4y
Suet624 @Sace I can‘t either. 4y
AmyG I‘ve not been sleeping....up at 4. I dropped my ballot off a week ago and got an email it was recieved. I try hard to read and escape for as long as I can. Some days I am hopeful and other days I am scared to death. 4y

vivastory 🙌 🤘 👍 👏I'm surprised the lines are that long in NY...do they have ballot drop off boxes? 4y
Liz_M @vivastory Yes, there are drop off boxes for absentee ballots. But I decided to vote in person, partly because there was a printer mistake on over 100,000 ballots mailed to Brooklyn residents and I didn't trust that my absentee ballot would be uncontested/counted. Also, there are only 88 sites open in NYC for early voting versus 1200 sites on election day. (edited) 4y
vivastory @Liz_M JFC 100,000 ballots?! Ugh. Yeah, I'm bracing myself for a wait, even though my polling location is usually pretty convenient. No matter the wait though I know it won't be nearly as bad as the 8 plus hours some people have had to wait at. There's just no excuse... 4y

Not book-related but still an important civic duty. My state‘s primary is 8/8 so I want to get this in the mail tomorrow. I haven‘t started yet because I need to go read up on a couple of candidates I‘m not as familiar with—just to be sure. One of my Sunday night projects. Getting ready for November!

Hooked_on_books Yes! I will be performing the same task tonight. There‘s about a million people running for mayor here, so there‘s a lot to try to figure out. Pretty sure I won‘t be voting for the guy who just got arrested for assault at Home Depot. 😆 4y
DebinHawaii So many mayoral candidates! Yes, I would take that guy off your list! 🤣🤣🤣 4y

BookishMarginalia I usually do a about 15-20 postcards at a time, assembly-line style, adding each element or color at one time. The last thing I do are the addresses. That‘s the most efficient way for me. 6y

Blergh! I can‘t even watch the returns, so maybe I‘ll settle in with a book (if I can concentrate). My local elections went well, but it‘s other parts of the country I‘m worried about. 😩

Using my Bitmoji because our precinct has never given out stickers (since I‘ve lived here).

Today was the first time (At this precinct) that I had to wait for a parking spot to open up and/or actually wait in line to vote. Even the 2016 presidential election didn‘t have this kind of turnout! Glad to see this involvement happening.

Maybe it's just me being ignorant, but in case you didn't know either, while waiting in line to vote, you are not allowed to use your kindle to read, so bring a book - waiting lines in El Paso have been crazy!

My first 6 books on the #makemereadit list have been finalized. In a run-off race, Shadow and Bone beat Arabella, so they are my fourth and fifth reading choices, respectively. The Red Queen garnered the next amount of votes for sixth position, but there is a 5 way tie for seventh. What will it be, Littens?

Hi y'all! I'm asking for one more round of voting for my August #TBR in @TheReadingMermaid 's #MakeMeReadIt activity. So far, Nimona has beat out The Japanese Lover by one vote, with The Fall of Hyperion coming in a distant third. No love for Deadwood and Norwegian Wood. ☹ Since I had some trouble getting going at first, I would love if you guys would help me out one more time in the comments on this post. Thanks!

MemoirsForMe This one sounds cool: 6y
SleepyDragon @UwannaPublishme I know, right? I bought it after the show Deadwood went off the air, I think because I craved more. But I never got around to actually reading it. Thanks for voting for it.😀 6y
