heck no to the original Q. btw, absentee ballots are usually not counted unless the results are challenged and then only in the recount...
that's kind of funny that you guys want receipts. i have had that idea for over a decade. they should also have a bar code with your vote that way a recount would be relatively easy... it will never happen here though...
in the primary election here (IN), many polling places ran out of ballotts and some closed at 6.00pm without giving some people a chance to vote. the results stand as calculated but I believe that was a total breach of citizens' right/obligation to vote. so after florida and other regional blunders I can't wait to see Nov... should be very interesting... we'll probably watch another power grab reminiscent of good ol'commies..
btw. my us rep (w/ others) asked the UN to oversee our next national elections and guess what...they didn't want anything to do with it...so, how can we trust UN to put on anything in Iraq??
