My anxiety dictates that I go on Election Day to vote in person. I’ve seen too many examples of people’s mail-in ballots not being counted and mail-in has too many potential points of failure. When I can physically drop my ballot into the counting machine, I know it has been counted.
After years in Oregon and Washington, this whole thing of having to go to a polling place was weird. Also, even the secretary of state in Arizona mailed out voters’ guides that we apparently need LWV to put out. Not that I’d trust Paxton with anything but a loaded gun in a locked room, but how we run elections here is pretty anachronistic.
I don’t understand why anyone would want to vote in person. I have always voted via mail-in ballot.
I think the most obvious use case for in-person voting is for homeless people. But there are also people who just like it better.

No one wants to. This is just a suppression lever.
In Texas, where I live, it’s illegal for me to vote by mail in ballot. I will be able to vote this way when I am 70 years old.
