I'm concerned, to say the least. What's the next step? I'll be calling first thing in the morning.

and get replacement. They said if you didn't have it by this last Tuesday to be concerned.

I've already voted and dropped mine off.

Call them in the morning! Keep us all posted!!

Haven't completed it yet, but just noted the voters' pamphlet said if ballots aren't mailed by the 11th (Wed.) they should be delivered to one of the drop-off boxes. My nearest one is the library, so I'll get that done tomorrow. Great as vote-by-mail is, I still get a bit anxious about what happens to it when I drop it off. I think I can call the county elections off to verify, if memory serves.

Let us know when you receive yours, 'cause the fact that you haven't as of yet is pretty concerning!

Cheers.

probably depends on where you live, but agree with #1 it wouldn't hurt to check through available channels

The woman on the phone was a bit disgruntled, telling me that I'd received the ballot on the 27th. I patiently repeated, several times, that I know that's what the record shows, but that it's wrong; I've been anxiously checking the mailbox every day, and it never landed there.

She's mailing another. It will be here Wed. or Thurs., and I'll use the local drop box at the library to make sure it gets where it needs to be on time.

Now if the new ballot will just show up...

Whew!
