Reply #57: New Voter [View All]

[rrasile]

Happy to see a fresh new voter, and you have questions. This is very refreshing. Absentee ballots have always worried me because of one simple fact. For some reason they are counted after the polls close. Sometimes with overseas voters they are counted much later. Slow mail, in the case of servicemen is one of the favorite reasons. No one bitches because their afraid to offend the military.
The problem will be much bigger now that the parties are urging more people to vote an Absentee ballot. We may have to wait much longer to see the results of an election.
I can wait but not when the company that makes the scanner has a shaky record.
It would be so easy, polls close, you know what you need to win, a programer and it's done. Fucked again. Thanks for voting.
