Idaho Primary Election

 

This is from the Sunday editorial from Coeur d’ Alene Press

 

Brannon the (Kootenai County Clerk) said the law specifically requires voters to request a ballot. But for those of us who wonder sometimes if the powers in office don’t want high voter turnout, he pretty well dispelled that by saying the state is paying for two mailers to connect prospective voters with an absentee ballot.

 

One of these mailers might have already landed in your mail box and the other one will be mailed out soon. The second one will have your name and other basic info on it, but in order to get a ballot to vote on, you must sign your name the way it is recorded at the election office so they can send you a ballot to vote on.

 

This election you can request a absentee ballot right up to the minute the polls would have closed at 8 pm on May 19. You‘ll have till 8 pm on June 2nd to mail your ballot back into the election office. Remember this is no cost to you to mail ballots as they are self addressed and postage is already paid for .

 

SO NO EXCUSE NOT TO VOTE SO LETS MAKE THIS ELECTION 100 PERCENT. PASS THE INFO ALONG TO ANY OF YOUR FRIEND AND RELATIVES TO VOTE IN THE PRIMARY ELECTION.
