ELECTION INTEGRITY IS PARAMOUNT
 

I appreciate that the Board of Elections wants every vote counted, as well they should! The ballots from drop boxes should be retrieved at 7 p.m. on election day and submitted immediately!  If they are not recorded on November 3rd or they dont have a VALID POSTMARK they are not valid as current law stands. Do not extend acceptance of unpostmarked  drop box ballots for 3 days. We must ensure Election Integrity!
