7. A few questions for a patient person?
Does this thing work retroactively for people who vote absentee? Would a registered voter have to go at least once to the Board of Elections to show them an ID even if they had been voting for decades?

I voted for the first time this year because I'm legal age now to vote but I asked for an absentee ballot because it's paper and can't be erased and I work almost all the time.

Now I'm thinking that they could just throw my ballot out or just lose it somehow.

Shouldn't states have to claim the number of absentee ballots they have received and from what zip codes and start counting them as soon as the polls open or even before that? Why do I keep hearing that some elections have to wait days to count absentee votes?

Is it okay to ask this many questions? I'm also concerned about my parents who have lived in the same town where they were born and have voted for probably 30 years. Can you use a utility bill or another type of bill or only pictures.

Glad this time decision making is so easy. Who would vote for anyone but a Democratic Party candidate at this point anyway?

What is an enhanced driver's license anyway?

Oh, cranky baby, dead tired working mom. My shift. Got to go. Be back Friday I hope.

Life is good!

Monmouth County, New Jersey
