[Lekooks] Ask for Absentee Ballot boxes!

[Kim Suhr]

Thanks so much for this, Kerry. I just spoke to the person at the Village of Wales and she said there was no drop box but people are allowed to use the night drop box at the Village Hall. So folks who live in Wales have it covered. :)

In Colorado, all voting is by mail, and they have poll ballot boxes that voters can place their ballots into - similar to mailboxes, but different-looking and clearly marked as for ballots.  The Wisconsin Election Commission has let the Wisconsin Clerks know that they can establish drop boxes for absentee ballots that must be secure and emptied daily, but not all clerks have done so.  I have asked my municipality to install one, and I would encourage all of us to ask our local clerks to do so.  We know how important this election is!
