In most states, Nov. 3 isn’t really Election Day. It’s just the last day to vote. You should not wait until the last day to do something this important.

A lot of you can vote in September. Almost all of you can vote in October. DO NOT WAIT UNTIL NOVEMBER. https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2020/08/2020-voting-guide.html
