REQUEST YOUR ABSENTEE ASAP

The process for Vote-by-Mail, or Absentee Voting, which means exactly

the same thing, is starting. Though Trump keeps saying that Vote by
Mail is a terrible thing, but Absentee Voting is okay, it is absolutely the
same thing. That’s just one more thing he doesn’t understand.

If you’re already registered to vote, then you should request an

absentee ballot application immediately. If your state allows registered
voters to vote by mail, and all do to varying degrees, then go online to
your County Board of Elections and download, print, and complete your
request for an absentee ballot application. You can return your request
to the Board of Elections by mail or in person.

Last Friday, I completed and dropped off my request for an absentee

ballot at my local County Board of Elections Office. It took about two
minutes; one to complete the application, and one minute to drop it off.
I should receive my absentee ballot near the end of September, and I
plan to vote the same day I receive my ballot. I’m not waiting until
November 3rd to vote; I’m not even waiting until October. I can’t wait to
vote!

USHLI will soon be posting a calendar on our website showing when

you can request an absentee ballot in your state. If you’re registered to
vote, please submit your ballot application ASAP. If you’re not registered
to vote, most states are allowing people to register to vote online. USHLI
will also be listing on our website the states that allow for online voter
registration. Please stay tuned.
