    I got home last night from work, voted, and ate dinner. Got up to go to work and tossed the ballot in my mailbox this morning. It was amazing. Being able to get an absentee ballot in NY has been absolutely wonderful.

    I am a bit worried about my signature though lol I can’t remember if I signed with my stupid fresh out of highschool “script” signature on previous ballots that I used on my social security card, or my general signature I’ve been using for everything for decades now…

      I mean, if it gets rejected, they will let you know. Good news is you can always re-register and update your signature.

      Here, we have the motor voter registration, so it’s the same signature as my drivers license.
