Military and overseas vote?

[Richard D]

Anyone find or hear anything about how the military voted? How about Americans living abroad?

This seems like it could be quite a significant piece of information for further use.

1. A friend of mine voted abroad and had to vote by fax.

2. Unless I'm mistaken, the military and ex-patriot votes are still confidential

Exit polls are another story.

3. Funny you asked.

Here in VA, absentee votes are counted on the night of the election. The absentee votes are like its own precinct. The final count was like 2000 votes for Allen to 5000 votes for Webb. If I'm not mistaken aren't absentee ballots mostly cast by military personnel?
