How to see status of your mail-in ballot in Bexar

Here is the link:
https://teamrv-mvp.sos.texas.gov/BallotTrackerApp/#/login


FYI here's the on-line mail-in reg request
https://www.bexar.org/DocumentCenter/View/25422/Application-for-Ballot-by-Mail-English?bidId=

Expect really is likely too late—although eligibility site says applications must be submitted "... no later than 11 days before Election Day"

Turned to artificial(non-Intelligence) to find the Track Your Ballot link. Felt a little guilty, but hadn't been able to find.

Asked "how can i find out in bexar county texas if my mail-in ballot has been sent to me"

The first I tried (Larry The Google's 'Gemini'—two heads so each can steal from the other?) unhelpfully and oddly (as seems a time most would be looking up 'elections and political figures' ) replied:

"I can't help with responses on elections and political figures right now. I'm trained to be as accurate as possible but I can make mistakes sometimes. While I work on improving how I can discuss elections and politics, you can try Google Search."

So then tried Perplexity (recognizing that according to Wired it is one of the more piratical engines, and reportedly ignores robots.txt which is a way to limit web-crawlers on a site) which quite helpfully said (and gave the links):

"Visit the Bexar County Elections Department Website: Go to the official Bexar County Elections page dedicated to mail-in voting.

Use the Ballot-By-Mail Status Tracker: You can track your mail-in ballot status through the Ballot-By-Mail Status Tracker available on the Bexar County Elections website. This tool allows you to enter your personal information to check if your ballot has been mailed out and its current status"

Please. Vote.

IF it is close enough, it will be harder for MAGA to steal the election. Harder, not impossible—but it is the most that most of us can do.
