Dear Thyroid Folks,

Please be careful with replies - only my voice may
address off-topic matters while on-list.

Please Vote

I believe that the upcoming election in the USA is
the most important in 128 years, since 1876.

So, I want to encourage everyone who is eligible to
vote to actually do your duty and cast your ballot.
Please make sure every eligible voter you know
actually votes in this critical election.

Please note: I'm asking you to vote, but I am NOT
suggesting _how_ you should vote. Your choice is
a private matter and, I believe, a sacred duty.

I worked for hours to find the most "non-partisan"
links to 'how to vote' and have your ballot count.
In some cases, I regret I was unable to find
pro-voting information from "neutral" parties.

The links below were derived from many sources,
and I believe they are now working. If anyone has
better, or additional information, please send it to
me privately so I can distribute it, if appropriate.
I will not distribute materials which I believe are
partisan, pro-candidate, or that discourage voting
in any way.

Your choice is your duty - citizen choice is what
makes democracy work.

If someone interferes with your right to vote,

1.) Write down exactly what happened and the names
of all the people involved.

2) Report the problem to federal and/or state election
officials (above) and to the partisan and non-partisan
