    It’s one day, with most states allowing mail-in in advance. You have no excuse for not fulfilling your duty as a citizen to ensure least negative outcome of elections.

    I had my own shit to deal with

    So does every other fucking adult, and now we have even more shit to deal with, thanks for that

      It takes one day to do the actual voting. It takes a lot more time to figure out who to vote for.

        Depending on where you are, it also takes some effort and coordination to ensure you register to vote, verify you are still registered by the deadline, and to ensure you understand what will be on the ballot before you show up and have the necessary documents when you get there. I do live in a place the Heritage Foundation considers high in “election integrity”, so they made a lot of barriers to vote where I am, and I could theoretically get why busy people have a hard time prioritizing it.
