*so important*: if you’re voting by mail, assume the USPS will delay because it’s its policy.
You can:
—put it in drop box
—go to counter to watch them postmark in front of you
—if you’re dropping it in a mailbox, do it VERY EARLY.

This is a thread for lovers of elections; French politics; & French geography.
Tomorrow are France's runoffs for MAYOR elections; every city choosing its mayor.
It's a window into multiparty politics, shifting coalitions, & hard math, & suspense.
I'll go thru the 10 biggest cities, 1 by 1.
