IDK if this is a real thing or not, but I keep hearing stories about voter purging in Republican controlled areas as a way to prevent anyone else from voting. As the last day to register is looming be sure to check your states voter registration. Go to Google and search, "am I registered to vote (your state)." Be sure the site ends in a . Gov address or it's not real. Fill in your information and see if you're still registered. Most states now have online registration or the ability to request a paper form through the website.
