I refuse to vote absentee ballot.

I go to the polls.

No early voting for me.

I received my first BETO “please vote for me” letter in the mail today. I guess because I’m a registered Independent, but it’s just too funny in an ironic way !

“I refuse to vote absentee ballot. I go to the polls. No early voting for me.”

Absentee ballots are a problem and I wouldn’t consider doing it unless I were desperate — scheduled surgery or similar. I ran elections for a mid-sized city about 30 years ago, and saw that there’s too much opportunity for messing around with them. I don’t especially like the concept of early voting, but I do it as long as a voting machine is being used and signatures are checked two or three times before getting to the booth.

I’m with you on that. I feel it’s my duty as a citizen to physically go to the polls, and cast my vote on election day. My father was a stickler for making sure we went to the polls. Of course, back then, there was none of this early voting crap available.

Me neither. I despise alternate voting. I’m ok with absentee if there is a reason. Early voting, mail, online. No way.

I miss those days. Sometimes there would be rain, snow, wind and ice cold, but I always loved the experience. Unfortunately, my state of Washington requires mail-in voting and have for several years.

We voted 3 days ago and as always, my wife dropped the ballots off at the courthouse. I refuse to use the mail for such things.

I recognize that my vote doesn’t count much in this lib state, but i’ll keep voting until I am gone from this world.
