You can vote today — I did, and it’s not that hard

To hear the American media talk, you would think Alabama was a lawless wasteland.

If you only paid attention to the mainstream media and their Democrats, you couldn’t be blamed to believe that voting in Alabama is an arduous process fraught with pitfalls and that stereotypical Southern politicians and plantation owners are putting up barriers daily.

This, of course, is not true.

All over the state of Alabama, polling places are now open.

Sure, we call it in-person absentee voting, but you can literally go vote right now. I’m not kidding. I just did it.

I did it for you.

Look:

The process?

  1. Go to the courthouse.
  2. Show identification.
  3. Fill out an absentee request.
  4. Vote (For me, it was straight GOP ticket, YES on Amendments 1, 2, 5 and 6, NO on 3 and 4).
  5. Put in the secrecy folder.
  6. Place in a large envelope.
  7. Fill out said envelope.
  8. Hand to clerk, who checks the envelope for errors.
  9. Go home.

USA! USA! USA!

The end.

Everyone has two months to navigate this totally super-complicated process.

If you can’t figure out how to cast your vote, maybe you shouldn’t vote at all.

America will do fine without you.
