Do all states have voting via absentee ballots? It’s also amazing how previous generations managed to get to polls with only one day designated for voting. And there were more one-car families back then, too. I know our county has seen some consolidation of polling places, due to budget cut requests from county government. Nothing wrong with that. If voting is important, a person should be willing to do whatever it takes to do it – after whining for a while….which we all tend to do. If only there were ways to actually get people to vote once they are registered. What a wonderful day that would be.
Yes, all states allow voting by absentee ballots.
