THREAD: Tuesday's presidential primary election is 100% still happening. Here's what you need to know about voting in the age of coronavirus! @LUCHA_AZ @ChispaAZ @case_az @AZadvocacy @AllVotingAZ @IndivisibleofAZ

@LUCHA_AZ @ChispaAZ @case_az @AZadvocacy @AllVotingAZ @IndivisibleofAZ 1) Live in Maricopa County? The bad news: 80 polling places have been shut. The great news: You can now vote at ANY polling place in the county. Go to onearizona.org/vote to find one convenient for you.

@LUCHA_AZ @ChispaAZ @case_az @AZadvocacy @AllVotingAZ @IndivisibleofAZ 2) Live outside of Maricopa County? For the most part, your polling place has not changed. Yuma closed one polling place (the health department, for obvious reasons). Apache County moved a few. Go to onearizona.org/vote to find where to vote

@LUCHA_AZ @ChispaAZ @case_az @AZadvocacy @AllVotingAZ @IndivisibleofAZ 3) Got a ballot in the mail and didn't mail it back yet? It is TOO LATE. Drop it off in person at any polling place in your county, or in the drop boxes at your county recorders' office, or ask a friend or family member to drop it for you.

@LUCHA_AZ @ChispaAZ @case_az @AZadvocacy @AllVotingAZ @IndivisibleofAZ 4) Need to vote, but have a health condition that makes you worry about exposure to the virus? In self quarantine with your family, but need to drop off ballots? CALL YOUR COUNTY RECORDER. They can arrange emergency voting options for you!

@LUCHA_AZ @ChispaAZ @case_az @AZadvocacy @AllVotingAZ @IndivisibleofAZ 5) You might also consider going early on Election Day (polls open at 6 am) to avoid the crowds.

@LUCHA_AZ @ChispaAZ @case_az @AZadvocacy @AllVotingAZ @IndivisibleofAZ 6) Finally, a huge shout out to the elections officials who have been working round the clock. Running an election is hard at the best of times, which this definitively is not. THANK YOU!
@RecorderFontes @SecretaryHobbs @MaricopaVote @Pima_Co_Record & many many many more! #vote

@LUCHA_AZ @ChispaAZ @case_az @AZadvocacy @AllVotingAZ @IndivisibleofAZ @RecorderFontes @SecretaryHobbs @MaricopaVote @Pima_Co_Record 7) One last thought: it's too late to vote by mail for this election. But now is the time to sign up to vote by mail for the next election! It's easy, convenient and best of all, virus-free.

@LUCHA_AZ @ChispaAZ @case_az @AZadvocacy @AllVotingAZ @IndivisibleofAZ @RecorderFontes @SecretaryHobbs @MaricopaVote @Pima_Co_Record Sign up to vote by mail using this link - you'll basically re-register to vote, making sure to click the box for the "permanent early voting list": servicearizona.com/voterRegistrat…

From now on, you'll get a ballot in the mail for every election!

@LUCHA_AZ @ChispaAZ @case_az @AZadvocacy @AllVotingAZ @IndivisibleofAZ @RecorderFontes @SecretaryHobbs @MaricopaVote @Pima_Co_Record *Sorry, small correction: you can only ask a family member or housemate to drop off your ballot (not just your friend, alas - due to voter suppression laws passed by the #azleg)
