Voting will be safe
This part I continue to print. It needs to be read. One thing I want everyone to do is to go out and cast your vote for the candidate of your choice. Please go tothe polls and cast your vote on one of the machines.
There is so much hoopla about the mail in votes what could go wrong and your vote not be counted. Some details of mail in voting:
1) You have to get your ballot from the Circuit Clerk’s office, not one that is sent to you in the mail as some I have seen.
2) You have to have your ballot notarized to be counted.
3) You cannot get a mail in ballot unless you can give a legitimate reason for you not being able to go to the polls on November 3rd and you cannot use Covid 19 as an excuse to get a mail in ballot.
4) Without the proper signatures in the correct spaces allowed your vote will not count.
Go out to vote.
People want to know if, it will be safe to go out and vote. I want to reiterate that you should go to the polls and vote. There will be a person whose only job description is to sanitize each machine after each use. Not several times a day but after each use by a voter. You will never go to a machine that has not been sanitized. No one will touch your photo ID except you. The encoders will be sanitized after each person’s use. Please drop the encoders in the provided box for their return, so that they can be sanitized for the next person’s use.
We are asking everyone to wear a mask for their benefit as well as the benefit of others. We know that a mask is not required, but living safely should be a requirement for everyone. I like saying, “I like living without pain, so therefore I wear a mask.”
We are trying to cover all aspects of sanitization for the voter’s safety. The voter’s safety is very important to us. Now go out and vote for the candidate of your choice.
