BREAKING: Deep red Missouri votes to repeal near-total abortion ban and codify abortion until viability into the state constitution. huffpost.com/entry/missouri…

California has repealed Prop. 8 and enshrined same-sex marriage rights in the state constitution.

In passing Amendment 3, Missouri is the first state where voters moved to undo an active abortion ban, but there's a long, long road ahead until abortions can resume. There are zero licensed clinics in the state. jezebel.com/missouri-votes…

I cannot emphasize enough how disturbing it is that Fulton and Dekalb county voting precincts were targeted for bomb threats. These are the biggest, Blackest counties in Georgia. A quarter of the state's Black population between them.

🧵A bustling scene at the @MultCoElections office in Southeast Portland & the Voting Center Express in Gresham. Voters are picking up replacement ballots, dropping off their ballots & more: multco.us/dropsites

@natalieandrews I'm so terribly sorry. Thank you for sharing this pain, and hope, with us.

Not the story I expected to file on Election Day. My brothers obituary. Please, please, if you need help, or know of someone who does, the suicide hotline is 988. All I can think to do in grief is to share this number as much as possible. russonmortuary.com/obituaries/ken…

@thedailybeast @CarolAllison8

@CarolAllison8 THANK you. So far I've got Millard Fillmore in a landslide - JT

Hi, it’s Jill. Daily Beast lost their minds and asked me to live-tweet my election panic attack from their account tonight. My first election night in a newsroom and I'm gonna yell “Scoop!” like, a LOT -JT

Oh and Jill Stein’s veep supports abortion bans and hates trans folks so there’s also that

@JohnHolbein1 I KNEW IT

protip: the more you click refresh tonight the faster the election results will come in

Voting should never take longer than 30 minutes. Long lines are suppression, too, making it harder for working people with families.

@KEBrightbill If the local races can lean towards pro-climate results, that would be HUGE!!

Remember, voting is a tool, one of many. Don't give in to apathy and let the darkness win, just because you can't be bothered to try.

C'mon, MultCo residents! Are you telling me that #ManateeCounty is going to be more politically active than we are?? They have passed 80%!!

@KEBrightbill that's awesome! I hope it's good news for democracy and the climate. Based on other stuff I've seen you posting about, I'm glad to see that people there believe they can actually make change happen in order to protect their habitat!

We should get reimbursed for time spent standing in line to vote, like we do for doing jury duty. Maybe that would encourage states to pass vote-by-mail.

yes, there's a big election and the future of the planet is on the line, but I just accidentally swung my hand in the corner of a counter as I was walking past and it really hurts. #ouch

Clarence Thomas is retiring soon. Vote like Clarence Thomas is retiring soon and his seat will be replaced by whoever is in charge.

“Both sides suck!” Sure. I hear ya. But if we decide to have another kid, I don’t want my wife to die in childbirth like a fuckin pilgrim. So I voted democrat

Tomorrow. IWillVote.com

I weirdly scared that there will be so many people "vote switching" that Oregon will go red. There's just too much that can go wrong and I hope everyone votes for Harris because that is the only choice that will get us vital climate protections, civil rights, and possibly SCOTUS.
