I don't care if you live in the reddest of the red, or the bluest of the blue states. You need to vote. Why? Because even if Biden wins the electoral college and the popular vote, Trump won't give up.
If Biden wins by only a few votes, we'll be in for the fight of our lives. But the more people who vote for Biden, the easier the transition is going to be. I wouldn't be surprised if, even now, Trump is preparing for a scorched earth policy, and will destroy every record and every piece of evidence of his wrongdoing in an attempt to stay in power.
But the more Biden wins by, the less likely his allies, such as his own appointed officials or Republican representatives, will fight to contest the election. That's why everyone needs to vote.
If you want to downvote all my other stuff, that's fine. But people need to see this and act upon it.

I do need to vote when I can but I don't think they'll let me vote in another nation's election.

Don't forget you have more than 2 choices

Yes, everyone needs to vote because winning 50 to 20 is somehow better than winning 5 to 2

I was going to say something similar but I live in Canada so I'm used to people forgetting about us.

Also, be informed about the issues when you do. Vote for who you believe has earned your vote, not for who someone said you should vote for.

As a Canadian I feel like you may be overlooking the international nature of the world with how you're phrasing things...

Oh, yeah sorry. We're trying to make sure our democracy doesn't become a dictatorship. Sp bear with us for a bit.

What if you're a US citizen living in a US territory instead of a state or abroad, and therefore not allowed to vote?

Yeah somehow I don't think they're going to get that change made before November, so it will still matter where you live.
