Which would be the best way to ensure that my vote gets counted....

[FLyellowdog]

voting absentee or going to the polls? In FL.
I won't be there for early voting but will be in time for Nov. 6.

1. I'm afraid the only way you could be sure would be to move

Come to Oregon. We vote by mail (or drop box). Every vote gets counted, and there's a paper trail.

4. That's great! Easy...peasy.

2. Absentee ballot, maybe?

3. Make sure you're registered

8. You are no longer in my Will...

7. For some reason I'm uncomfortable about absentee voting.

Actually I'm uncomfortable about ANY voting in FL. Guess I'll never really know if my vote actually gets counted or not....just something else to worry about.

But I'm kinda leaning toward absentee.

9. Everyone from the mail room to the County exec have access to mail in

ballots and can be traded like kids do with baseball cards. Also
unless the absentee ballots will effect to winning count they are not counted depending on the state or local rules.

There are some 50,000 voting jurisdictions and each have its own rules and social customs.

Be sure you are registered and have the items needed to vote in your area.

Call or go to board of elections, if you don't know, go to your public library and ask.

10. Thanks...

Now I'm rethinking and leaning toward going to the polls. Why am I making such a big deal out of this...?

Because IT IS a big deal. Every vote MUST be counted.

I'll be so glad when November 7 rolls around and we're the winners.
