I don't think they're altering them, just making sure that anyone in the military gets thiers too late.

Are you a hoax monger?

The Michigan Absentee Ballot
A picture purporting to show a scanned copy of the Michigan Absentee Ballot has been spreading around. Look at it carefully. It would definitely put the Florida Butterfly Ballot to shame. There appears to be no way to vote for Bush/Cheney, but if you decide to vote for Kerry/Edwards, you're really voting for Bush/Cheney. Is the ballot real? Apparently so. It was a ballot printing error, but was confined to one precinct and mailed out to only 69 people. Brad Wittman, from the Michigan Secretary of State's Office, was contacted by someone at Metafilter, and this was his comment:

The ballot printing error is confined to a single precinct in the City of Alma. Approximately 69 ballots containing the error were released to voters on Monday, September 27. On Tuesday, September 28, a voter called the clerk to alert her to the error. Arrangements have been made to send the 69 voters replacement ballots. The clerk expects to receive corrected ballots on Monday, October 4. In the meantime, a voter who received one of the misprinted ballots posted a scan of the ballot on the web. This has created far more interest (an outrage) than what is warranted.

You ought to move to Orygun...where ALL ballots are absentee. Yep, mail in voting for all up here. Welcome one, welcome all...even if illegal alien. I don't play 3 card monte for the same reason I no longer vote. Rigged games aren't my bag...

They were just floating a trial baloon to see if they would get caught...too bad for them, but apparently the Republican voters in Michigan are smarter than the Dems in Florida.

PWD looks as if i will be lewis and clarking up your way scouting for my new region around thanksgiving. leaning toward washington the more i hear from you and others on oregon. what im hearing is that the thing most oregonians prefer is anybody entering the state just keep driving through w/o stopping.

i did get my ballot yesterday by the by

flintstone, take a day off from your constant pro bush shouting, please, at least in a ballot quiry thread.
