Election Day isn't a federal holiday yet,erotice incall bronx so the voting public needs to make sure to take time next Tuesday to head to the polls. While filling out ballots should be a straight-forward process, anything goes in this tumultuous campaign climate.

SEE ALSO: Here's how to find your polling place — and where to eat or drink afterSo while exercising your right to vote, make sure you know how to protect yourself if you feel threatened, intimidated, harassed or in danger.
Election Protection, a non-partisan coalition of more than 100 organizations led by the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, is pushing out tips and resources for voters in the event voting doesn't go smoothly at some polling places.
The group laid out a three-step process if things start to feel off while casting a ballot or even just trying to enter a polling place.
First, do not engage. Second, continue inside and make sure you vote. Then notify a poll worker or official. Third, call the Election Protection hotline: 866-OUR-VOTE (866-687-8683). From there, concerned voters can pass along info and local polling officials will be notified and take the proper next steps.
Tweets with the #ProtectOurVote hashtag on social media provide more information on voter safety -- along with messages from Trump and Hillary Clinton supporters accusing the other side of stealing votes and inciting violence.
