If anybody has the chance to do this in a swing state where there are lines at the polls

Go down there with coffee thermoses, bottled water and donuts or other snacks, bring umbrellas if you have them, do what you can to help those who are staying in the lines be as comfortable as possible. Bring chairs for people who are older or in poorer health.

Don't wear campaign buttons or discuss the race, but bring the things listed above. Anything that encourages people to stay in the lines helps.

Stand with them in solidarity, off to the side, maybe, with a nonpartisan sign saying something like "[Florida] voters, we are standing with you!" Anything to buck their spirits up! Strength in solidarity!
