The Pentagon get real touchy about states interfering with military personnel’s right to vote. In war, soldiers get killed trying to deliver ballots to other soldiers, so it is taken very seriously.

On one of my deployments, I worked in the postal service after the 2008 election. We received hundreds, if not thousands, of ballots after the election. While we had to keep a tally, all these service members were effectively disenfranchised. It was frustrating that those who defend our Constitution are often the last to enjoy its benefit.

While the APO has always had problems, the Secretaries of State should be able to provide the ballots in a timely manner. The military does make an effort to ensure members are able to vote, but ultimately they’re at the mercy of the States—most of which are run by individuals put into office by Soros funds. SOS is an often-overlooked position in state races, but they have an outsized effect on elections. We need honest people in these positions.
