Oh, I personally am going to vote. I’m trying to see if I can squeeze my departure until after the start of early voting. Or else leave early enough to register at my new address. Right now I am poised to leave in the mid-zone, unfortunately.
My fear is leaving too soon for early voting but too late for re-registration.
Texas might swing so it would be cool to be part of that.

We have the Great Barrier Reef to the east, the protected Daintree Rainforest north, and rainforest everywhere else around us, and the local council does not give any fucks about the endangered wildlife that live in our areas. So I vote Greens purely so there is some fight in councils and parliament against doing anything that is going to drive our endangered animals towards extinction. Without them, our politicians would go unchecked and everything would die or be destroyed.
