If you don’t follow the rules on the mail-in ballot form, you disenfranchise yourself alone. If the Elections offices ignore the rules and accept non-compliant ballots, they disenfranchise all of those who followed the rules. Self-disenfranchisement should never be the other voters’ problem.

Self-disenfranchisement should never be the other voters’ problem: if a voter doesn’t follow the rules
on mail-in ballot forms, the voter disenfranchises him/herself alone. If Election officials ignore the rules
and accept non-compliant ballots, they themselves, disenfranchise all of those who followed the rules.

Nice take.
