In September, we asked our readers to share their #ElectionDay plans with us. With just seven days until Nov. 3, here’s a look at what we learned from the 335 responses we received from voters from across the country.https://19thnews.org/2020/10/the-19ths-readers-are-voting-early-and-by-mail/ …
4/ Lisa Rice of Washington, D.C. is one of 188 readers who said they were casting mail-in ballots this year. The D.C.
