In order affect change and stem the tide of these oppressive gun laws, one MUST vote. The easiest way is through an absentee ballot aka vote by mail. No excuses:

Also if you're not registered to vote, please do so. Here is the link:

I hope this helps everyone. Let's have our voices heard!!!

 

Admins, can you pin this?

In other words this is VOTE BY MAilL. It's so easy I can't stand it. First click your county.

 

You print out that form. Check the box for "send me a November ballot". You fold up the paper and mail it in

 

A couple of weeks before the election you will get a ballot. It's great, you can take your time and better yet you get to read all those proposals local to your own town.

 

You sign and fold up that one and mail it in. Done deal. Easy Peazy. It will cost you two stamps. If that is too much money for you PM me and I will reimburse you.

Yep. I've done it a few times when I knew or thought I would be away on Election Day.

 

Unlike some other states, in NJ, all absentee ballots are counted. In some states, they are only counted, iirc, if there is a tight race or some other conditions.

Yep, I've done mail-in ballots for every election for which I knew I'd be away..... Now, I adjust my schedule so I know I'll be back home on election day.

I am going to start voting by mail because we sometimes get stuck in traffic.

Seriously...there is no excuse not to vote. There are like 1MM gun owners in NJ...we can swing an election!

Good to know!!!  I have zero excuses from now one.  Thanks!

This is a good first step, a good seminal idea, but a LOT of hanky-panky occurs with absentee ballots. I've been a huge advocate of voting the bums out. But unless someone can demonstrate to me that absentee ballots are counted in a timely fashion, this idea is, to me, suspect.

 

Absentee ballots can get "lost," particularly if the other side catches on. 

 

This initiative must be based on VOTING ON ELECTION DAY, on GETTING OFF YOUR FAT ASSES AND GOING TO THE POLLs. That way there is no excuse.
