A fake movie poster. The title of the movie is Night of the Unprepared Voters. The tagline is In the fight for the future will you turn out to vote...or let them win? In the distance against a moody dark sky is San Francisco's City Hall building, bathed in spooky orange light. Bats fly up from the City Hall's dome. In front of City Hall is a group of 10 people. They all either look confused, lost, or scared. One person in the middle is holding a ballot. Three five-star quotes from fake movie reviewers say: Make a plan—or be haunted!, Spooktacularly unready!, and A nightmare for democracy! Text at the bottom says The deadline to vote is coming! November 5, 2025, 8pm.

It's that time of year again.

Now it's your turn

#VisuallyImpaired #voters sue #NewHampshire over changes to #Absentee #BallotAccess

The plaintiffs say the new law will deter some voters with #disabilities from participating in the democratic process at all, even after they have registered to vote

By Steven Porter Globe Staff, Updated August 21, 2025, 9:30 a.m.

"Three people with visual impairments are suing New Hampshire officials to challenge the constitutionality of a law that will soon tighten #PhotoID requirements for voters seeking an #AbsenteeBallot.

"The plaintiffs — Adele Robertson of #ExeterNH, Daniel Frye of #ConcordNH, and Regina Wilson of #BrentwoodNH — allege the new law, known as #SenateBill287, will impose a significant burden on every #AbsenteeVoter statewide.

" 'And, in some cases, these burdens will entirely prevent voters from exercising their #RightToVote,' their lawsuit states.
Under the new rules imposed by #SB287, voters will be required to either bring a photo ID to their local election officials to request an absentee ballot in person, or submit a copy of their ID or a notarized signature along with their application.
While proponents said the legislation will better protect election integrity, critics said the changes will add barriers that disproportionately impact #seniors, voters with #disabilities, and those living in #rural parts of the state."

Hey guys! I just wanted to hop on for a second and talk about #voting as a student in #annarbor ! I went on a little bit of an adventure to try and vote today involving wrong busses a dying phone and an #absenteeballot with no envelope. Unfortunately this means I was unable to drop my ballot off today, but tomorrow I will try again! I know voting can seem like a hassle when you’re a student and you’re already busy, but it’s super important that we vote. I highly reccoment voting early! #goblue

@georgetakei A downside to mail voting: a controlling or abusive husband can insist on supervising his wife's vote, or even commit a felony by filling out her ballot himself.

There's a lot to be said for the comfort and convenience of voting by mail, as one graphic meme had it, "at your kitchen table, with a cat in your lap, and a big book of information about the candidates and ballot questions provided by the state."

There's also a lot to be said for the privacy of the voting booth.

San Francisco, we can do better than this! Boost to spread the word.

With less than one week until the last day to vote, only 23% of registered SF voters have returned their ballots.

It's better to return your ballot sooner rather than later so you have time to fix any problems that could keep your vote from being counted.

If there's a problem with your returned ballot, the SF Department of Elections will try to contact you to fix the problem.

⭐ Do democracy a favor and vote early! ⭐ Put your ballot into an official drop box or bring it to the City Hall Voting Center. You can still mail your ballot, but remember, in San Francisco it must be postmarked by or on Election Day to be counted.

Get all our unbiased voting information at lwvsf.org/vote.
