Three weeks later, I got another.

:wtf:

I'll go on election day all the same, thanks. I wouldn't want my vote lost due to 'error'.

1. I got the request forms from both sides
One with John Ellis and Rudy on it, with two request cards, and another with John and John, likewise with two request forms.

Odd thing is, the cards on one was addressed to my local supervisor of elections, the cards on the other was addressed to P.O. Box in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. :tinfoilhat:

2. It could be a double trick some Bush reverse psychology
meant to confuse you so you forget to vote at all.

You wake up on election day and say, "Didn't I already send in that vote? Hmmm...I'm sure I uh did. Or did I? I forget. Well, never mind."

3. If I see through this Repug tactic correctly,
They're attempting to create a big hoopla about voting absentee as a ploy to create suspicion against the Democrats. Their thinking is that, if (or, when, rather) Kerry wins the election, they want the sheeple to resent Kerry the way that we've resented the coWard for four years. The difference is, of course, the Democrats aren't the ones to worry about.

We've all seen how the Republicans operate: They take the long list of the coWard's negatives & they attempt to shift them onto Kerry. Kerry doesn't NEED to steal votes like the coWard does. Kerry is capable of leading this country wisely; the coWard has shown that he cannot. He's only a figurehead who needs to manipulate votes to win.
