From what I read, by law, ALL military mail MUST be post-marked. If the personnel failed to do it, blame them for the callous, illegal behavior. By the same token, it was the DUTY of the Democratic committee in West Palm Beach to examine the ballot AHEAD of the election, and complain THEN about any potential confusion. The potential for confusion was HUGELY obvious to me after seeing the ballot, and we have such a huge history of ballot snafus, someone in that county in the Democratic committee is RESONSIBLE!!

Why this election now to be OUTRAGED about military votes. If, say, the Dukakis-Bush election showed 50% of military ballots were invalid, why didn't anyone get mad, get the postmarks THEN??!! I am certain it happened.

Where was the outrage?? Now you know why it was important THEN!

Forwarned is forearmed.
