I’ve been saying all along...the problem with absentee voting is “chucking” registered republican ballots.

“I’ve been saying all along...the problem with absentee voting is ‘chucking’ registered republican ballots.”

It’s not exactly a secret ballot, is it?

I voted absentee for the first time in 30 years because I needed to be out of town unexpectedly, and I of course had to put my name and address on the envelope.

I know people who reside out of state part of the year and are registered Republicans who have requested but not received their absentee ballots in time to return them and be counted—or not received them at all, or not received them without repeated calls to the town clerk.

Why does the GOP insist on absentee voting? Get yourself to the polls people. Of course, that isn’t failsafe, but I despise the prevalence of early and absentee voting.
