Is anyone besides me concerned about the turnout to vote on November 6? I'm wondering if people will even be able to get to the polls; or if they will be so overwhelmed by their own situations that they just won't vote..... Polling places having to relocate. Etc.

(978 posts)This week it's going to be bad in the hardest hit areas. I've been through hurricanes before and it can take several days to clear out and get the power back on. Not all gas stations are open and ones that are have lines 1/2 mile long. But I imagine it will improve by election day.
People who have lost property and their homes may have different priorities right now though.
But I don't think it will change the outcome. The Blue states that have voted blue in the Northeast will remain Blue states.
The early response by the President looks good for his favor.
