AL AK LA MO MS NC OK RI SC VA WI all USUALLY

but there have been some changes for #Election2020

*Alabama requires 2 witnesses Or a Notary

AK LA MS NC SC WI require voters to include 1 witness signature on ballot envelope

If #EarlyVoting appeals, you can actually #VoteEarly in all States! Even ones that don't, technically, have #EarlyVoting?
(Some by #AbsenteeBallot which you can hand deliver if you prefer.)
If you see a list that says you can't vote early; it's wrong.
