Mail in ballot

Posted to Politics category
Got my ballot in the mail the other day. I opened it, kinda read it, then tossed it on the kitchen table. I noticed, it wasn't pre-paid return postage, and it has an ugly warning that "will not deliver if full postage is not met" or something like that. I'm pretty sure that it will only require 1 stamp, but it is a hefty envelope and the ballot is on thicker paper. That would be quite a controversy if thousands of mail in ballots went undelivered due to a few cents in postage.

I'm not sure if I'll do early voting or use the mail in ballot. The polls open up in my county on the 20th, I think. Last time there was no lines. I feel a little better actually going to the polling place.

According to the fine print that I read, If you got a mail-in ballot, you have to use, but you can drop it off at a county clerk's office or a polling place. (I dropped mine off on tuesday.)

Also, if your ballot is more than one sheet of paper, you will need 2 stamps unless you drop it off. My ballot ran 3 or 3 and a half sides, because of all the amendments and judges.
