Georgia’s newest Congresswoman-elect @mtgreenee has had a number of tweets flagged for election misinformation, and a call to her county elections office confirms another tweet about her husband’s ballot just isn’t true. #gapolhttps://www.ajc.com/politics/election/greene-falsely-claims-husbands-voting-record-reveals-a-scam/DRVWWKU6N5CDFBP7JWKYXTXLYU/ …
Voter education moment: if you request an absentee ballot and decide not to vote it (or never receive it!) you must sign an absentee ballot affidavit to cancel that request/ensure that you... don’t double vote. So this is what tens of thousands of other Georgians did+ is normal. https://twitter.com/mtgreenee/status/1325968874957905921 …pic.twitter.com/27tWvLZK8C
It’s a shame the Congresswoman-elect doesn’t understand the voting system that put her into office. Nobody is saying he cast a mail ballot and then had it voided to vote in person. It could be a data entry error! Bottom line, he voted once and the procedure worked as designed. https://twitter.com/mtgreenee/status/1325987099301048320 …pic.twitter.com/aI9oxqF1bR
I was going to say - AJC article describes something very similar to my record, I think? Fairly mundane...pic.twitter.com/84T7hCk1o8
I'll be the first to admit I have a very hard time following exactly how our government works, and what all the voting protocols are. But... shouldn't people we elect to represent us know these things? And if they don't, shouldn't they not be allowed to spread such falsehoods?
*in Georgia This is correct in Georgia, but the rules vary quite a bit state to state! (I just don’t want any non-Georgia voters to worry they messed up if their state doesn’t require an absentee ballot be cancelled to vote in person)
Not only do you have to sign an affidavit, but anyone with an outstanding absentee ballot got flagged as such when they checked into their polling place, notifying the poll worker to request formal cancellation of the absentee ballot within the voter registration system.
Is that image what it looks like for anyone who cancels a requested absentee? Or are there variations?
Here’s mine. Request absentee, used a sharpie, spoiled it. Second absentee didn’t shown up, so I went and signed an affidavit at early voting, voted. Second absentee cancelled. One vote. This isn’t hard.pic.twitter.com/IU71invY2O
I voted early and not absentee but in the system it looks like it was an absentee ballot. Here’s a pic from Twitter on the day I voted 10/19 along with my MVP page showing I requested and submitted an absentee ballot and it was accepted that day.pic.twitter.com/JITHYyUved
Voting early IS a form of Absentee voting. It is in person absentee voting. The wording is challenging, I get it, but you are going to an early voting place, filling out a form (remember that?) and then voting. Got it?
Place bets on when she resigns over some bonkers scandal.
