Election Day: Prez has clearly confused clocks with calendars

Why, tomorrow is Election Day! And Babs is here to remind you of that.

Hey you! It's Election Day! So go out there and vote!

from Your Vote Is Vital! public service one-shot (Harvey, 1952), pencils and inks by Warren Kremer; Al Avison
Look, let's put it this way. Neither the actual President, the Vice President, or the White House tweeted generally about voting today. That's what we're up against. Remember that!

365 Days of Defiance, Day 226: Marvel the Vote

It's Local Election Time in the Ms. Marvel Universe! And, you know, I never realized she had that gauntlet only on her left wrist. You learn something new every day!


from Ms. Marvel (2016 series) #13 (Marvel, January 2017), script by G. Willow Wilson, pencils and inks by Mirka Andolfo, colors by Ian Herring, letters by Joe Caramagna
Like, f'r instance, Ms. Marvel learning that some people just have ass-stupid reasons for not voting.


That's why it pays to know the facts. And here's where The Divine Ms. M. explains it all for you, debunking common misconceptions about voting. For instance, did you know it doesn't say anywhere in the rulebook that a stuffed bull can't be President? (looks in rulebook, notices it does say that. Oh well.) Anyway, for her attention to detail and knowledge with a capital K-N, they oughta call her Ms. Snopes!



So make sure you are registered to vote! Even if you voted last year, double-check it! And if you're not, you can register to vote right now so you'll be ready for the local, state, and national elections coming up. Learn and know your rights, your candidates, and your time and place to vote. Get involved and get the word out!

Panels from "When Treachery Wore a Green Shirt" in Sensation Comics #81 (September 1948), script by Joye Hummel, pencils and inks by Harry G. Peter
But it can happen here! Get out and vote! And if you're intimidated or stalked at the polling stations, or witness fraud, alert a poll worker, and call 1-866-OUR-VOTE (1-866-687-8683). You can learn about voter intimidation and what to do when faced with it here. And you can find out what to do if you encounter armed intimidation here.


And remember: if you're in line to vote when the polls are scheduled to close, stay in line! "If you go to the polls when they are open, and you are a registered and qualified voter, then as long as you wait in line, you are entitled to cast your ballot even if the line is so long that you must wait until after the scheduled time for the polls to close."
