I got an email earlier asking me to remind everyone to mail their absentee ballots. Apparently, there are many absentee ballots that have been issued that have not been returned to the Board OF Elections.
They must be postmarked no later than November 7, 2011 or hand delivered to the BOE by 5 pm on Tuesday, November 8th. If you know anyone who has an absentee ballot, please ask them to vote and put it in the mail or deliver it to the BOE at 284 Wall Street on or before 5 pm on Tuesday, November 8th. They cannot drop them at their poll site. If they are going to their poll site then they have to vote in person.
The absentees may well make or break some races in the county. Now is the time to follow up and get the ballots voted and mailed back to the BOE.
Only 57% of Democratic absentees have been returned. Only 62% of the Republican absentees have been returned. Please return them if you have them!!!! Every vote counts!! Please make your voices heard!!!
