Melanie Said:

Why don't more people vote by absentee ballots?

We Answered:

All I know I didn't vote because I didn't get to.. But l know during lunch break hours in the afternoon is the best time to vote. Old people vote in the morning so there is a long line.

Sonia Said:

Why does there need to be early voting when we have absentee ballots?

We Answered:

I just voted this afternoon because I'm leaving the state tomorrow morning, but it is my understanding that it was an absentee ballot. They had to look me up in the computer before I received a ballot. There was no wait either yea!

voting by SSN makes too much sense, sorry

Marvin Said:

Will the next election be fair by using the electric voting booth or we all vote absentee ballots l

We Answered:

I think you voice an important concern. The new electronic machines are riddled with problems. The scariest is that they can be programed to count one vote for another. No effort has been made by our government to remedy this problem. The other big problem is that in some states a paper trail is not required.

These two problems put together, can spell disaster for fair and impartial elections.

I think you have the best solution. VOTE ABSENTEE ! VOTE ABSENTEE ! VOTE ABSENTEE !

And then Pray that the ABSENTEE ballots are from ligitimate voters when counted.
