It will take longer to vote for many reasons. For one thing, the machines must be spaced out more so there will be less machines at each locations (thanks a lot COVID).

If your ID doesn't match your voter registration, don't sweat it! Ask for a provisional ballot! I had to get one during 2016.
The poll workers are always very nice, so don't freak out.
They know what to do.
And they have stickers.

You may ask: How could my ID not match my registration? I registered when I renewed my license! (6/15)
In 2016, voting books were hacked by switching up digits in the street address (street number, zip).
When a poll worker checks your ID against the book it won't match your registration.
It happened to me. And may have caused some of the crazy long lines at the polls. (7/15)

If you haven't watched Kill Chain you should. It is all about how easy it is to hack our voting system. (8/15) https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2020/mar/26/kill-chain-hbo-election-hacking-documentary
The FBI is telling us the Russians are actively trying to hack the election. They don't *have* to change ballots (but they could, it's wicked easy).
They just have to discourage us from voting. Make us think it won't matter. (9/15) https://www.cnbc.com/2020/09/17/fbi-director-wray-warns-russians-actively-influencing-2020-election.html

Or, Cause chaos at polls by making our ids not match our voting registrations. Make the lines so long we give up, or don't have the time to vote. (10/15) https://www.npr.org/2020/06/09/873054620/long-lines-voting-machine-issues-plague-georgia-primary
This Russian strategy is already underway. We're exhausted and voting seems so pointless.
But IT IS NOT.
It seems like they've started already by creating the poll chaos with mail-voting.

There is so much energy going into preventing us from voting because VOTING IS OUR SUPERPOWER!
WE HAVE THE POWER! And they want to make sure that power is not flexed.
So y'all better vote!
