Re absentee voting. What about when someone goes on a trip and won't be home during the election?

My husband and I voted onetime absentee because we flew to Upstate New York for a Family Reunion.

You mean by someone taking a picture of you laying on the operating table or laying in the hospital bed and someone taking the picture to the election commission?

Election Day sneaks up on no one. If you want to go away on vacation, plan it around the day set aside to exercise your constitutional right...or don’t.

In VA, if you have to vote absentee for medical reasons you have to show proof. Usually if you have some medical justification, you have some documentation. It shouldn’t be onerous but just enough to keep it from rampant abuse.
