Is there something wrong with voting via absentee ballots in your opinion?

[jumper69]

I'm not gae (no pun intended) but when an entire town applies for them, it seems, uh....a bit fishy! Wouldn't you agree???

What's fishy about it? Really.

Lot's of people here in Washington state actually use absentee ballots for convienence. The percentage of voters went up as a result.

You think there's something wrong with using them when you can physically vote at a polling station?

Not at all Pina. When I lived in Germany I voted for Regan via an absentee ballot. Who knows whether it was counted but I voted.... [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]

You really shouln't try to put words in my mouth. I just said that when an entire town files for absentee ballots, it seems fishy. Not that it IS fishy but that it SEEMS fishy. And we all know that perception is reality.

Sorry, Pina, I was busy registering my (all) deceased Mother, former Mother in Law and current Mother in law to vote.

And, lobbbying my Socialist neighbor to vote for Bush. He's just about convinced. I'm thinkin that another fifth of Absolut on 10/2 and we're good.

Trav almost alawys votes absentee because we never know where he's going to be come election day. We both are this year, because I'm dong exit polling.

But I was asking if you thought there was anything wrong with an entire town voting by absentee ballot as it was something that you explicitly cited.

Maybe we should invite him to dinner on Saturday?
