> Yeah, that's an interesting one. I don't know what the law says about "filling out" absentee ballot requests. I've heard some news reports stating that the only people allowed to fill out the requests for a voter are relatives or legal guardians.

That is my understanding.

No, but to me, it is moot. Or, as Joey says on the show Friends, the point is moo *g*. The votes should be counted, and we should follow the intent of the law.
