Where do the absentee ballots of our troops go to
be counted? Do they go directly to the districts where they are registered? Do they go to the Pentagon and someone there sends them to their districts?

1. They should end up in their own counties!
The need to be voted from the county where they are registered, so they can count the votes and include them in the local results.

2. I would like to know this as well...
And what anti-tampering measures are instituted to prevent fraud.

3. We have heard it's the Pentagon.
And I'm just wondering if they will really send them to the right places to be counted especially the DEMS votes. I believe that our troops will vote overwhelming for Kerry! And all the troops families and relatives. I just can't see why they would vote for Bush except the die-hard repugs.

5. If they have a Dem label or special marking
they go in the trash bin.

7. I know that in my county
absentee ballots are sent out with the party designation on your address label.

I bet half the Dem ones won't get delivered to the troops overseas.
