Dear Marjorie--- boy, does this ring a bell ! In our case, it's I who
can't hear, and because of Peter's Parkie voice I "hear" him say the
strangest things sometimes---good for a laugh.
As for absentee ballots, that may also vary from state to state. In Ohio
there are some 8 or 9 reasons you can use one, including being over 65,
being in hospital, jail, out of country, being a poll-worker, etc, etc,
etc. We always vote that way now, as Peter hates to take so long to sign
his name in the book at the polling place !
Nancy's question as to how we know our absentee ballots are counted is a
good one---but then, how do we ever know that ANY particular ballot is
counted? The system has to run on faith to a large extent, which is why the
confusion in Florida is so troubling!
