Party Affiliation on Return Absentee Ballot Envelope Invites Fraud
.



Broward County Candidate Ellen Harriet Brodsky for Supervisor of Elections Calls for a Secret Ballot by removing Party Affiliation on Return Absentee Ballot Envelopes.

Today I received my Nov. 4 General Election Ballot as well as my family and our neighbors. I along with everyone was shocked and dismayed to see our party affiliation clearly printed on the return ballot envelope.

Voting must be cast in Secret and Publicly Counted. "Noone wants election officials or postal workers to know our party affiliation", "after the 2004 fiasco we want this election to be fair and square", said Brodsky.

The secret ballot is fundamental for our free and fair exercise of our Constitutional Right to vote.

Broward County is the home of 58,000 to 76,000 missing absentee ballots from the November 2004 election. Noone to this day has been held accountable for losing our ballots. The same Election Officials who were in charge of the missing Absentee Ballots from 2004 are still in charge today. As a result of Broward Voters never receiving their absentee ballots, thousands of Broward Voters were disenfranchised in the November 2004 election. It was a finger pointing game between Supervisor Snipes and the Post Office. Nothing was resolved and the voters were the losers. One would expect better absentee ballot practices today to preserve our privacy. As a result, noone can be sure.
