The article does not list the 16 states but I bet they are all blue states.

Connecticut is one of 16 states nationwide criticized in a new report for failing to give its residents who are serving in the military overseas enough time to vote.

Most probably controlled by dRATs knowing most military votes go GOP. This is just simply a get out to ‘stop’ the vote.

The states along with the District of Columbia that Pew said did not provide enough time to cast ballots are: Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Georgia, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, New Hampshire, New York, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and Wyoming.

Residents of Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii and Rhode Island must return their ballots by fax or e-mail to meet voting deadlines, the study found.

Minnesota, Pennsylvania and Vermont only give overseas servicemembers five days to fill out their ballots, the study found.

Plus, this is very disturbing: The Election Assistance Commission found that just one-third of the 1 million ballots distributed in the 2006 election to those serving overseas were cast or counted.

Ever since the Sore/Loserman mess in 2000, I’ve been convinced that military votes are being “lost” or otherwise supressed. Sad indeed that they fight and die for this country but can’t get their votes counted.
