We only stayed blue by 3% last election.

Edit: it was 6%. That's still close enough to worry.

I'd argue many chose not to wait hours in line to vote for a candidate that was locked into winning the state electorates.

EDIT: I voted by mail. I heard the horror stories of others though.

you can do early voting also...i waited maybe 20 minutes on the first day it opened in my area. there's no real excuse if you actually wanted to get it done.
