To the Cape May Beach Spouter who wrote: “WHY is the whole voting thing so difficult? I was in the service and we got an Absentee ballot in Vietnam, filled it out and sent it on the M-PAC mail. Why do we need weeks to vote?” Well, one reason could be that your ballot from Vietnam wouldn’t have reached the “counters” until well after election day. By your reasoning your vote wouldn’t, and shouldn’t have counted. Why is your “reason” for extended vote counting time valid, and others not?
