No votes after Election Day!
 
We need a Special Session to stop this proposal. The deadlines currently in place are fair and sufficient.
It's unacceptable to allow Absentee and Mail Ins to be received 3 days after the Election.
 
IF we Can Vote Early, Until the Saturday Before the Election - Absentee and Mail In Ballots should have the Same Deadline. Absentee and Mail In's should be Received by Midnight the Saturday Before the Election at the Registrar's office to be confirmed as proper and counted.
 
NEED Consistent Deadlines - All Early, Absentee and Mail Ins Should Have to be Received in the Registrar's Office by the Saturday Before the Election. Or Vote in Person on Election Day.
Thank you - 
Lisa Murray
