View Full Version : Mail or in-person voting?
I've always preferred to go in to the polling location and vote versus using the mail ballots. Just something about doing so makes it feel more "real", kinda silly but there ya go. Regardless of what I think of the election I'll still wander in to my local polling location on that Tuesday, say hi to some of the neighbors and cast away.
How about you guys?

Mail in - makes it easier to review all the documentation sent on the issues.
Why not do both?
j/k
Depends on who he's voting for if it's acceptable or not.
Vote early, vote often!
I'm a mail guy. Strictly for the convenience of it.

I like to go and be among the public
I fill out out at home, then drop it off somewhere close to my house.

Mail in-I get pissed when I go in person.

I drive by the El Paso County offices every day on the way to work so I fill out my ballot and drop it in the drop-box (which I guess is functionally pretty close to "mailing it in").
I hate our mail in system because its just asking for abuse and fraud, but I wouldn't wait until election day to go vote because one way people will cheat is to submit a ballot in your name so you could easily get to the polls and find out you've "already voted".

Yea, they already did that with my tax return.
Fortunately, the IRS (their algorithms) are actually smart enough to know I NEVER get a refund.
I like to go early and talk to the elderly poll workers. I am thinking Tuesday next week will be our lunch date. My wife and I normally go just before lunch and we enjoy wearing our "I Voted" stickers for the rest of the day. [Flower]

I do miss the "I Voted" stickers.
I'd do the mail in ballot if mine ever gets to me. According to both the Adams county site and the CO Secretary of State site my ballot was mailed out on the 17th along with my wife's and both of her kids'. So far all of theirs have shown up and mine is MIA.

"Mail or in person"?
Why not do both? [Beer]
Not likely since I am in Westminster and his area was in Sterling and Ft Morgan. I'll probably swing by after work today since the early voting is going on.

I use the mail in and drop it off.
USPS is good, but not perfect.

Mail in, drop off. Can't lose it in the mail and can't digitally change my ink.

Same here. Fill it out at home and drop it off.
