In light of the controversy surrounding the Electronic Voting Machines (http://www.blackboxvoting.com/ ) I am proposing that everyone submit their vote in the form of an absentee ballot. One of the problems with the electronic voting machines is that many of them (if any? and who knows which ones do or don't) do not create a physical log of the voting records. Also there have been reports of abnormalities in vote tallying. Without this physical log it makes it extremely difficult, if not impossible to verify the voting records. If they are not going to allow a trail to be created, I suggest that we create on for them.
I have created a list, by state, of web links of how to vote with an absentee ballot. Don't be fooled, you don't actually have to be absent to vote with an absentee ballot.
This list can also be found at http://www.geocities.com/holesnthesky/absenteevoting.html
