We've been permanent-vote-by-mail voters for many years, but this year we tried something different.
Our county now offers Vote by Mail Ballot Drop-Off Sites
Vote by Mail voters who do not want to mail in their ballots can drop their voted ballots off at any 24-hour location.
It turns out that one of the official drop-off boxes is just 3 blocks from my office, so after we filled out our ballots this weekend, I took them into work with me and walked over to the drop box.
It was actually surprisingly busy at that little drop box.
When I got there, a woman was just walking away, and she congratulated me on voting, and just after I dropped our envelopes in the box, a man walked up with two more envelopes and dropped them in.
"That's all there is to it?"I said, and he replied with a smile and a salute:
"Easy as pie!"Both of them were cheerful and it made me feel good. Voting always seems to bring out the best in people.
Don't forget to vote!
