1. i didn't vote in your poll, but the dems here in AZ are doing the same
we are hitting every precinct getting folks to fill out EBRs so we can call them and remind them to vote

We are working off lists of "lazy voters" folks who are registered Dem but miss voting in General elections

3. But is there no rules governing who can vote absentee?
In TX it says you have to be 65 or older, disabled, or out of the district on election day.

4. not here, we do lots of vote by mail. More and more states prefer it
since it is so hard to get poll workers in most states

2. so they can count their vote twice
Once when they turn a Dem vote to a Repub vote inside that little black box voting machine, and again when they count their absentee ballot.

5. I was doing the same in Milwaukee for Kerry
The key is to get anyone who is going to vote for you to do it before they change their mind.
