Actually, Patty, I am pretty sure the ballot company told Sharon that they would count them all. The USPS said to do one thing, the ballot company another - no wrong advice was given, and I think either will work. I personally sealed it up and mailed it in another envelope. We need to encourage everyone to not hold onto their ballots but mail them in! Cyndy You know I sure hope your right, but I dont think there has been any official word from the ballot company what they will and will not accept. I've heard that they wont accept any ballot that has the bar codes on the back scratch out...but this is speculation also... The members need an official word from the ballot company in writing as to what they will and will not accept. I'm done ... I want it straight from the ballot company...I really dont think I'm asking too much.
