Just curious since it seems so much easier and less stressful during any election cycle to fill out a form and mail it in during your free time.

Because I saw the news about voter dropbox being fire bombed and the head of USPS deliberately slowing down mail. I don't trust that my mail-in vote will count, so I voted early in-person.

Only one guy was doing the drop box thing and you can recast a mail ballot if you need to. If the crazies try to attack your polling place on election day, you're probably not getting your vote in on time at all. Also USPS doesn't lay a finger on ballots dropped in the ballot box, they only carry mail ballots that are mailed instead of dropped off.
