Reminder: Many states have Curbside voting if you are ill and can't go into the precinct...

I'm in MA, but I've heard other states do this as well.

For my town, all you have to do is call the town clerks office and they will arrange for a member of their office to meet you outside the polling place with a ballot in a privacy envelope. They will be escorted by a LEO who is just there as an escort - they won't interact with you or ask any questions.

Once you vote, the clerk will take your ballot in the envelope and go back inside and put it through the scanner and log you as voting.

EZ Peazy.

My whole family tested positive last week and my wife called to see if we could vote without going inside. They said sure, this is how we do it.

It started 2 years ago because of COVID, and I am surprised that they kept it. They're usually more into voter suppression here.
