Reply #14: DO NOT TRUST VOTE BY MAIL...

[demodonkey]

...especially in states like PA where party-machine 'bosses' still run things in far too many areas.

I heard one horror story after another yesterday of 'lost' registrations that were mailed in (such as only one one out of three family members that mailed their registrations in the SAME envelope actually getting registered), 'lost' absentee applications that were mailed and disappeared, and 'lost' absentee ballots cast and mailed but somehow never made back to the county to be counted. All these things costing many people their vote.

Vote By Mail may -- MAY -- work in Oregon (if it does it is thanks to OR Secretary of State Bill Bradbury, who is an honest and decent man but is leaving office) but it would be a total nightmare in a lot of other places.
