6. I was there personally, on day 1 and hung around the Dem booth

all the candidates were there for the races, Markita Bradshaw, Renee Hoyos, Couch...The reps for repugs were across the parking lot and had an even turnout of booth support. These are my own observations since I also stood in line that day. But today I by chance drove by again and saw an unprecedented line so unlike previous years.

I drove by UT on Sunday on my way to a recycling drop-off and was dismayed at the obvious student crowd strolling up and down the strip. I can tell you that 90% of the strip strollers had no masks. All young, likely students since it was right through campus. I do hope they all vote though. I would off the cuff say they would vote Dem, if they vote.
