It makes my blood boil when I hear anyone say, get your lazy ass to the polls on Election Day, and no mail in or early voting.

There are many reasons why someone cannot vote in person. All of them mentioned above by intelligent DUers. Also, ever think of a stay at home mom with fussy little kids who cannot stand in a line for hours?

We should make voting EASIER not HARDER!
