I Wish Voting Was as Easy Everywhere as...


... it is here in Bernalillo County, NM! 


Bernalillo County makes it so easy to vote. You do not have to go to a specific polling spot any of the several locations around the county will do. They will look you up in the system. No ID required (except for City elections). Print off your ballot that is customized to your local precinct. Fill out the paper ballot (yes there can be recounts if needed!). Turn it in where it is verified and counted. Bam! You're done!

Not only can you vote on election day but you can vote two weeks before THE day the voting centers are open Monday to Saturday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. except for the Monday before election day. And on election day there are a ton of additional places to vote so the waits will be limited.

Back home in Virginia, we could only vote on election day itself. Had to go to the actual precinct. Which was a twenty mile round-trip out of my way for me.
