edelsont | Countdown: 4

Today is Tuesday, October 6, 2020. Four weeks remain before the general election on Tuesday, November 3.

In North Carolina, the first day for early, in-person voting will be Thursday, October 15; that's one week and two days from now. To find out the locations of early voting sites in your county, you can visit https://vt.ncsbe.gov/ossite/.

I can't post this without acknowledging the development that has made things even crazier: the fact that President Trump now has the coronavirus. And yet I don't have anything more to say about that … not directly.

It does seem, though, like a good occasion for a little pep talk. So here goes:

Hang in there. Take care of yourselves, physically and emotionally. And of course, in the midst of all this madness, don't forget to vote.
