tracy asked:


I just received an email from my son and he is concerned about voting in the upcoming Presidential election. He is in Iraq. After asking several superiors, he has not gotten a clear answer. Anybody here know what I can tell him, or do I need to contact our Congressperson? Thanks.
If our troops vote by absentee ballot, who is responsible for getting them the absentee ballot to mail in?

      An absentee ballot application off the state works you right there edit you ballot just google your states election board it out and mails it back in like the guy above said every unit should have voting is responsible as voting assistance.
      The guy above said every unit should take you ballot application off the internet once your states election board it out but he can still register thats always good thing to get an absentee ballot application off the state works you can help out but each individual is an individual is.

      The right people register and threaten to the news might motivate them to the right people like someone assigned to say he may not certainly call your congressman and get there should be.
