I don't get this "early voting" at all.

If folks are unable to vote on election day, what is wrong with an absentee ballot?

.. what is wrong with an absentee ballot?

What the HELL is wrong with having the voting process that hundreds of thousands of Americans have died to protect being deemed important enough to MAKE THE TIME to respect and support the amazing privilege ? !

Of course documented exceptions should be made for the sick, infirm, etc .. but we're well on the way to turning one of the very foundation stones of the Republic into so much farcical sand.

“. . .what is wrong with an absentee ballot? “

The Post Office, that's what.

I do not trust that bloated, lazy, irresponsible, partisan and downright criminally inept organization to deliver anything of value.

I vote early and in person to ensure the Post Office can’t get their dirty paws on my ballot.

My neighborhood is all out for Romney and the republicans.

Our mailman is one of Holder's people and is about the most incompetent mailman I've ever seen . . .his speech is all slang and unintelligible (and the tats on his arms and hands reflect some criminal background), at least a couple of times a week he delivers mail to the wrong home (apparently he is semi-illiterate). . .and I am going to trust that yahoo to deliver my ballot and not just dump it in the river? Especially when he knows our whole neighborhood is going for Romney and the republicans?

And he is just one mailman out of how many across the nation that would behave like any good democRAT would behave (voter suppression). Early voting ensures I see my vote on the machine and I see my vote actually cast.

No way.
