HUGE NEWS: Johnson County, Iowa's most Democratic county, is on track to shatter turnout records tonight. if you are in line to vote, please stay in line! We had a US House race decided by only six votes here in 2020, your ballot could make the difference.
My response to Trump's unfounded allegation of cheating in Philly's general election:
The only talk about massive cheating has come from one of the candidates, Donald J. Trump. There is no factual basis whatsoever within law enforcement to support this wild allegation. 1/2
Young voters: if your parents and other older adults are stressed out of their minds right now and refusing to be optimistic, give them a break. Election Day in 2016 was legitimately traumatizing. You just had to be there as an adult to understand.
Five more polling places in DeKalb County have received bomb threats. Voting has been suspended at those precincts. This is a deliberate attempt to prevent Americans from casting ballots. FBI has linked today’s previous threats to Russians. Official release below

College students in swing states waiting to vote: STAY IN LINE! Let's be honest you weren't going to your 8am anyway
But seriously, as long as you’re in line at closing time they have to let you vote. If you have any questions or problems call or text the Election Protection Hotline: 866-OUR-VOTE

I can’t believe I’m saying this, as a guy who thinks picking up calls from random numbers should be against the law, but if you voted in Nevada, pick up your phone!
Three polling locations in major blue areas of Fulton, Cobb, and Gwinnett counties are going to stay open later because of bomb threats originating from Russia.
