Republican voters are more likely to prefer mail-in ballots, Democrats are more likely to prefer in-person early voting. Florida and Ohio cut back on the in-person early voting hours--wanna guess who's in charge?

I live in Republican-controlled red state. I walked in, I voted, I walked out. No line.
