Get out and vote!

Get out and vote!

It’s finally here. Today is election day in what is possibly the most important and controversial election in decades. While we’re not here to tell you who to vote for, we do have some information to help you along with the voting process.

NBC News has a guide to some helpful tech tips for the election including some helpful apps and how to find your voting place with your smart phone. Speaking of technical tips, Google is claiming that they will have election results as soon as the respective polls are closed.

In case you need a ride to the polls, ride sharing services like Uber and Lyft are offering either free or discounted rides.

If you’re thinking about foregoing voting today because you’re afraid the election will be hacked, you can put that thought out of your head. Not only is the government on high alert for such an attack, the real threat to hacking the election is good old-fashioned misinformation and misdirection.

Lastly, please don’t forget that if you’re in line to vote when the polls close they still have to let you vote.

Now you have no excuses, get out and vote as every vote really does count, especially in this crucial election.
