Will Overseas Soliders Get to Vote in Recall?
Californians who are part of the U.S. troops serving overseas may not get their voting materials in time to cast their ballots in the recall election.
Many did not expect to be gone for so long, and had no idea that an election would even occur....

I hope the ACLU legal team included this in their arguments for delaying the vote.
Surely our soldiers serving in Iraq deserve a chance to vote in this election.

1. Support the troops Repubs
Cancel this stupid recall. It's unpatriotic to have an election that our soldiers can't participate in.

2. ACLU will have Diebold ship over some PC voting machines...
...thinking they are doing the right thing.

Damn, the ACLU is missing the boat on this Black Box Voting stuff.

3. Only if they vote for Ahnuld.
Then their vote will be counted. Davis votes can be dredged from the bottom of the San Francisco bay. Hey, what's a hanging chad or two?
