I'm actually one of the 10,000 applicants who was rejected. What makes my case even more egregious is that I had actually filled in the missing information (date of birth) before sending it back. I sent a note to the Republican Party to let them know that, in my view, this indicates an intent by the election board to deprive a likely Republican voter of the opportunity to vote. I am discouraged that I live in MD and not VA.

(On the other hand, what kind of bone-headed people are running the MD Republican Party that they can't create a proper absentee ballot request form, which has only five required elements. Jeez.)

If I were you, I'd be quite frustrated about this incident, too. And, I'm sure the Dems were absolutely thrilled to see the mistakes.

This story sounds so familiar. It sounds like what happened in Florida 2000 - weren't applications for GOPers printed incorrectly at one point then, too?

I was rather curious as to why all three members of my household received absentee ballot applications last week. No doubt other MD voters received these same "invitations."

Perhaps this is a scheme to rack up as many voters in the absentee category as possible, thereby making many thousand more Republican ballots candidates for Demon-controlled shredders.

FWIW, I will call the DOJ and the MD Republican Party today. I remember all too well the stealing by Glanddungding Demons of the last election from Sauerbbey (R)......

Seems to me the MD Dems would be very happy to have an operative working with the Republican Committee who would make a mistake like that.

Hmmm...Class Action Suit? I'd get it moving ASAP -- right now. This is a deliberate strategy to rob you of your right to vote. The DOJ needs to be called in immediately.

I thought the State Election Board handled the design and distribution of ballots, not the individual parties.
