Our area is almost 100% absentee. A good portion votes that way and they
pushed for it many years ago. Our auditor really wanted it and it increased
the number of voters! We can hand deliver our ballots to a booth set up or
mail them even on the day of the election. I delivered ours Friday the
first day the booths were open, I won't spend postage on voting. I love it.
We all sit around and discuss the initiatives. Cody, his girlfriend, DH and
I voted last Monday night!
