I'm working very hard at not being LIVID right now.

I STILL have not received my absentee ballot to vote.

Everytime I've gone to the precinct to vote, there have been issues. I don't need that drama. So I try to vote absentee.

One year, my ballot was found in a desk drawer at a courthouse precinct, who accepted my absentee ballot (and forgot what to do with it?)

NOW, on the 26th, I did receive a postcard from my County director, giving me information on how to TRACK my ballot!

Okay, so I went to that website and saw that my ballot had been mailed TO me on the 22nd of October.

It's too late to mail it now, even if I get it.
I can always take it to the precinct (oh what a hassle that will be) and vote directly...

I've already written Tallahassee...this has to change. On the website where I went for the County tracking...it says absentee ballots are ONLY counted if there's a close race. That has to change. With more and more of us not physically going to vote, and our military too... those ballots need to be counted by midnight of the day of voting, IMO.

But ... I'm still without my ballot. Perhaps today?

I'm trying not to worry, or become angry, or ...well, or care. (Not sure that last one is really a good solution.)
