1. As a battleground state, Arizonans have a huge say in who becomes the next president of the United States.
2. Arizona is home to some of the most breathtaking natural (and national!) landmarks in the United States beyond just the Grand Canyon itself, such as Antelope Canyon, the Meteor Crater, and Bell Rock.
3. Arizona offers vote-by-mailers helpful flexibility, allowing anyone who is planning to vote by mail the option to — of course — mail it, but also to either deliver it to an official dropoff location or an official dropbox.
4. Early voting in person begins Oct. 7 in Arizona, with ballots dropping the same day. And don't forget — anyone can vote early.
5. You've likely met a scorpion before, something most Americans have only had nightmares about.
6. You're also...very familiar with cacti.
7. As someone who has endured an AZ summer, you also know what it's like to experience heat.
8. To join the nearly 80% of Arizonans voting by mail, you can get a mail ballot by either signing up for the Permanent Early Voting List (PEVL) or submit a one-time vote-by-mail ballot request.
9. You remain in constant awe of your state's natural beauty, be it the unbelievably photo-ready sunsets, the sprawling natural landscapes, its diverse flora, and beyond.
