Interesting. My husband was polled last week. Didn’t get the name of the organization. One of the first questions the guy asked was “When are you going to the polls?” My husband’s radar went up and he said, “I don’t know. Early.” Apparently the guy pressed him for a time, and my husband replied, “I’m not going to tell you what time I’m going to the polls because someboy could go in and vote in my place, and when I show up they won’t let mevote.” They went on to other questions.
In truth, my husband had already voted when I did — about a month ago. But now I’m worried. If the polls are really heavy, they won’t register and cast the absentee ballots until after the polls are closed. I’m working at a poll that is not where I vote. Somebody could come in and vote in my stead and when it is time to register my absentee ballot, it will be rejected. I’ve been worried about that all month.
I asked for an absentee ballot because I wasn’t going to be in town on election day. The absentee ballot never arrived in the mail.
So i went down to fill out a ballot at the election office. They said they mailed an absentee ballot to me on October 3rd. I never got it.
I had to ask them twice to invalidate the other ballot. They probably invalidated mine.
If you can’t trust your election officials it’s all over.
