The poll workers at my polling place do not know what to do with dropped off absentee ballots. I do this every election.
They asked me to sign in. I told them I had an absentee ballot to drop off. They told me that I still had to sign. I told them that I had signed my absentee envelope (and showed them that I had).
The poll worker would have had me sign in at the polls which would have exposed me to prosecution for voting twice!!!
Finally, the poll judge came over and cleared things up. He said, "Just drop the ballot in this box and you're done. No sign in necessary."
Surely they train these people. Yet I could have had my vote cancelled, or worse, been prosecuted because of their incompetence.
