All these people* can go screw themselves

[conuly]

because they're determined to screw the rest of us over even more.

* Except those who are genuinely facing structural difficulties in voting.

Please ask for help? Like, these may be solveable problems, for someone else. Like, if you have the absentee ballot, and all you need is the address to send it to, and it's not on the web, I'm happy to make a phone call to find it out. ETA: tripped over the universal Massachusetts answer:

Board of Registration or Election Commission
City or Town Hall
[Your town name here], MA [your town zip here]

(Thanks, Secretary Galvin!)

If you don't have the ballot, I believe it's too late to get one now. You'd have to vote in person. But that might have other solutions. ETA: I was wrong! "Absentee ballot applications must be received by your local election office by 12 p.m. on the day before the election". You'd have to get it there by Monday noon. I wonder if they have a fax machine. Do you have a scanner? "Applications may be submitted in person, by mail, fax, or by e-mail; however, the local election official must be able to view the signature of the person requesting the ballot. If the application is being submitted by e-mail, a scanned copy of the request must be submitted."

ETA3: Also, FYI: How to contact the election officials for every municipality in MA. The absentee voting rules.

Thank you! This explains a lot: my town apparently doesn’t even have an election commission to send the application to. I have to hope the address given is correct, though, because my town has at least three so-called town halls and each is entirely separate.

I’ll try to email it today, thanks. I have a scanner and a teeny bit of free time.

Thank you!

I heart you.
