Nice work! I got mine too! PS you got some shit in your beard.

Yep I was smoking a crappy cigar, bits and pieces all over, it smells good though!
Good for you Brad! Also, if you have a beard, you'll always have some kind of shit in it! 
Where we are, they gave us special "I Voted Early" stickers. Because of mobility issues, my wife votes curbside, and they had quite a few volunteers to help her with that. I went into the building where there was a line of only three or four people. We voted early in case they'd changed any of the rules on paperwork, but I've been in town since 1975, and my wife's been here since 2010, so there was no problem.
We prefer to vote just up the street, but wanted to hedge our bets to give us a second chance if it was needed. All the volunteers were upbeat and convivial, and we had a nice day. We got hot dogs and Cokes on the way there, and ice cream on the way home.
I think most places the poles are open until 7 or 7:30 p.m., and many places, if you are in line at closing time, they will still let you vote.
Where we voted early, you could actually register to vote and vote the same day.
I've been to local and run-off elections where I was the only person there other than the poll workers. The first time I voted was in Navy boot camp. My company commander (like a drill instructor) brought me my absentee ballot out front of the chow hall and let me fill it out off to the side for privacy.

I was hoping to see some sort of arrest!
We had some scheduled Covid shots at 10 O'clock. Got in 15 minutes late (if doctors would just pay me for them, I'd be rather well off). Then a few minutes to hang around to be sure there was no reaction, then off to the polls. I completed my voting process by eleven o'clock. And the time I spent waiting for my wife took longer than the voting did. Man, she takes a lot of time voting. I went out in the lobby they had where they were offering coffee for free. They were offering coffee but that wasn't what you got. I wanted a simple cup of Folgers or some such. What I got was steamed latte. God, that took forever. Grinding the beans, getting the machine up to temperature, doing this, that and the other. I could have literally driven to the Quik Trip across the street and driven back by the time this stuff was ready. But the key thing was I voted!!
I didn't get my sticker. But I arrived with 3 minutes to spare, and had to re register cause I registered online too late. So I suppose I didn't deserve a sticker.
I voted early before they got their consignment of stickers - So none for me 
Here they promised you a grilled bratwurst while getting a covid jab some time ago. But no stickers in sight for voting.
In some places in the world they put some paint on people after they voted.
You got stickers? I worked the poll all day. Cheap bastards didn't have stickers for us to give out. Hell they didn't even provide water for us to drink. and the bottle filler had a red light on it showing the filter was left in dangerously long. It was a long rough day.
