Absentee ballots sent by mail MUST have postmark on election day
 

The proposed regulation setting aside the requirement that absentee ballots sent by mail must have a postmark no later than 7pm on election day must not be approved. This requirement is a common-sense vote integrity measure and must not be removed. I firmly oppose this regulation and urge you to dismiss this effort.
