“I simply shred the ballots every time they arrive but wonder how many other people choose to do differently...”
In close elections, when that last precinct is taking hours and hours to post (long after every other precinct has reported) { for some mysterious reason{, if her name is on the roll list, and she is not checked off, then she is definitely voting
To clarify - all of my mother’s mail comes to me, NOT to the nursing home so there is no chance for anyone else to fill out and submit her ballot.
And, I verify with the county after every election that she has NOT voted because I am well aware that somehow a whole bunch of provisional ballots often “show up” at the last minute in close elections!
