@blockclubchi.bsky.social, someone asked about early voting locations and I found it more difficult than it should be to find the information. So, I built this website using the City and County data to make it easier. Feel free to share. It's totally free. chivotes.fyi

Six names, one ballot, ranked in the order you actually want them. rcv.live runs ranked-choice straw polls on the 2028 fields. The instant runoff re-runs the moment you vote — every transfer, every exhausted ballot shown. Standings stay sealed until you've cast one.

Robert F. Kennedy Quote
Every time we turn our heads the other way when we see the law flouted, when we tolerate what we know to be wrong, when we close our eyes and ears to the corrupt because we are too busy or too frightened, when we fail to speak up and speak out, we strike a blow against freedom, decency and justice.

For the media, political leaders, my fellow citizens - apply the “Barack Test” as you witness the dismemberment of our democracy. What would you have said/done if Barack had done what the Trump administration is doing almost daily. Why are you quiet now? Time to get vocal, committed and ACTIVE.
