I'm starting to piece together the election calendar for this year. Right now it's in a rudimentary stage and I'll certainly be updating frequently until General Election Day, including links and other info.

Please let me know if there’s any incorrect or incomplete information, and I will make the necessary corrections.

Note – if you do anything by mail, be sure to mail things in WELL IN ADVANCE. I personally would recommend at least 10 days, especially for submitting absentee ballots. Remember, we’re still dealing with DeJoy’s postal system! (DeJoy himself might be gone, but his postal complex is still in place.)

Activist and Donation Links:

Click here to go to ActBlue and donate to Democrats:

A caveat: ActBlue keeps a small percentage of your donation. So if you want a candidate or entity to have all of your donation, write a check to the candidate directly.

Also: in Arizona you’re required to provide a birth certificate (or passport) in order to register to vote in state elections, so if that affects you, be sure to act on it early. hlthe2b’s thread about how doing so can be quite costly!
