Since many if not most of the active-duty military by necessity vote as absentees, it is more important than ever to assure that the absentee vote is properly and accurately tallied and included in the final totals, and not simply just flatly trashed. And as a larger percentage of the military is of minority designation than the general population, this may also be a civil rights question.

All votes need to be tallied. Each and every one. The mandate Bush is going to have, the coattails, the international impression of American resolve and the right for all to be heard, must drive a full count. The Left discounts these votes (even thwarts them) because they don't help them figuratively or politically.
