U.S. voters barred from faxing in their ballots By Tamar Hausman Americans who showed up to vote by fax at the American Embassy in Tel Aviv and the American Consulate in Jerusalem were turned away if they were not registered voters in one of ten U.S. states. A Ha’aretz story reported yesterday that all U.S. citizens living in Israel could vote at the last minute by fax. The error occured because the American Embassy spokesman, Larry Schwartz, told a Ha’aretz reporter that all U.S. citizens in Israel could vote by fax. An official at the consulate in West Jerusalem corrected the error today. In any case, Americans who came to the consulate in Jerusalem were told that it was too late to vote because ballots had to be postmarked by yesterday morning in Tel Aviv. Schwartz did not return calls for comment. The ten states that allow faxed ballots are Alaska, New Jersey, Kansas, Louisianna, Montana, North Dakota, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Utah and Washington State. www3.haaretz.co.il
