The regulations governing voting must enable as many citizens as possible to vote. Any rules that impede voting or exclude a portion of the electorate are inconsistant with the ideals of a democracy. Please do not allow criteria such as a sloppy signature to invalidate an absentee ballot. Those of us who have to be away on election day have the right to have to have our votes counted.k
