I got it!!!

I got my postcard back from the county clerk saying they will be sending my absentee ballot in October.  Can't wait!!!

Ok, it's a little silly, I know.  I'm just excited that I'm still going to get to vote.   

Thats not silly!!! Congrats to you!!!

Thanks dearie!  I'm chuffed!

Yahoo!  Voting is so important.  We get the government that we elect. 

Oh good! They send them out in October, eh? I'll be waiting at the box!

Congrats! 

Cool!

My state does apparently.  I can only guess it's that way for other states.  Did you send in your application for an absentee ballot?

That is great Elle!!!  I pride myself in always voting, rain or shine!!!  I once debated with a friend about it and she is now a voter, and thanks me yearly!  I can't wait to get my AB too!

When I was 17 I worked part time at the Board of Education and my boss was actually willing to let me off work to go register to vote.  Unfortunately I was too young.  But I remember that I couldn't wait to vote! 

Did you send in your application for an absentee ballot?

I phoned because I hadn't received an absentee ballot for a while. It was then they told me that I had to apply for one each time. The procedure must have changed because for the first four years I was getting them automatically. I wanted to BE SURE I got a ballot for this year's general election! But while I was on the phone, she took my details and told me to not bother applying this year; she'd do it for me. I'm afraid I'm relying on trust. And that has me nervous. Florida. You know how they treated the absentee ballots in the last general election.

Ugh!  Well here's to hoping they DO send it to you!!  I had to fille in the form thingy and there was a little postcard they send back to you telling you that it was all set. 

We'll stay positive!  You WILL get to vote!

 Congrats Miss Elle 

Amazing how sometimes just a piece of paper can make someone so happy!  Congrats!! I practically ran around the house waving my AB for the primary election when it came through the post so I know how you feel!

I'm still a bit uncertain whether I'll get my AB for the election in November automatically or if I need to send off another card. Lisa, did they mean each time meaning primary and general elections counting as two or one?? I'm so confused. A coworker from Texas got a nice info sheet with his primary ballot saying they will automatically send him another in Oct too. All I got from mine (PA) was an instruction sheet on how to fill out the ballot for the 2002 election!!

I wonder if I should just send off another request to be on the safe side. 

I sent my request and got my postcard too!!

Woohoo!

Now just waiting until the actual form comes in October...can't wait!
