I know it's really dark out, and has been for like hours, but in NYC polls close at 9pm and your polling station is probably less than a 10 minute walk away. If you haven't yet, please get up, walk out and vote. Find your polling location here: voterlookup.elections.ny.gov/

' This is the line of students waiting to register and vote. Over 200 young people. 2+ hour-long wait '

I'm proud of each and every one of them. 😢

Oh and I don’t care if this sounds harsh, but fuck the “I don’t wanna vote because both parties are the same crowd.”

The GOP is no longer scared of saying the quiet parts out loud anymore.

And look, I have my own issues with the Dems, but at least they haven’t gone full death cult. So yeah, I’d rather take my chances with them than be governed by literal fascists!

I will not be watching election results. Instead, I'm going to have an imaginary seance in which I implore every god that ever was to give the GOP a very bad week.

For modern Republicans, the result is only free and fair if they win. Anything else is fraud.

Last election day update before we start seeing real numbers! The hard data people still seem enthusiastic so I’m going to try to be as well. Dems start out with a 5 million early vote lead so let’s hope that’s enough.

A mother and son were removed as poll workers in Johns Creek, Georgia, minutes before polls opened this morning, after a social media post surfaced showing them attending the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol.

@Democracy_Brief No, it really doesn't.

Quote tweets are one of those things that innately encourage gossip and malice. Around here, if you want to talk about what someone else is posting, you pretty much have to say it in line with the post.

That small tweak keeps people accountable. I think it's a large part of why things are so much nicer here.

Wait just a minute there!

One of these things is not like the other things.

One of these things just doesn't belong!

"Why is everyone telling me to use hashtags?"

CounterSocial doesn't have algorithms. That makes hashtags extremely important for both finding the content you like, and filtering out the content you don't.

That requires a bit of an adjustment on your part. Out There™, you are conditioned to avoid hashtags because that's how they troll you. We don't have trolls here, so hashtag it up!
