Sorry, I have to add the (hope) because I'm superstitious. I believe it was in Ohio where there was a record turnout to vote for Issue 1, which was an amendment to protect abortion rights. This high turnout despite Ohio passing a law prior that required a DL ID to vote.

So I'm hopeful this is a very good sign for Democrats. Even though it's concerning that people have to wait longer for their ballot, I think if people are that motivated to vote, they will stand in line as they need to.
