I've largely moved to another place! Find me there: https://t.co/IkMHiiNrmW And just a reminder: All the cool things like bill trackers and community-responsive reporting are also happening in that place too!

And if you don't know which voting centers are nearest you, that's okay! Use this site: https://t.co/v0jqEVS04R. Click "Find your polling place" and enter your info. You can then sort the results by distance from your home!
