Tuesday November 8, 2022 is Election Day in the United States of America. In addition to Congressional "midterms" at the federal level, many state governors and other more local offices are up for grabs. Given how things shook out over Election Day 2020, things could get a little crazy.
...or, perhaps, not! But here's the Megathread for if they do. Talk about your local concerns, your national predictions, your suspicions re: election fraud and interference, how you plan to vote, anything election related is welcome here. Culture War thread rules apply, with the addition of Small-Scale Questions and election-related "Bare Links" allowed in this thread only (unfortunately, there will not be a subthread repository due to current technical limitations).

Notes -
Maricopa county still has to count hundreds of thousands of ballots and as the article notes this is already being regarded by many republicans as likely fraud.
Maricopa leans red (34% Republican vs 30% Democrat) and was predicted to break strongly for Lake, but Lake's opponent in the election is Katie Hobb who is the current AZ Secretary of State and thus in charge of supervising the election. The oddly localized breakdown of election infrastructure in a county that is simultaneously AZ's most populous, and one where her opponent was expected to do well, has a lot people speculating about intentional sabotage.
It's not a good look.
