I think alicia raises two important points. The first is the last, the one, the unintended consequences of changes in election procedures. We almost always get what we think were going to get but then theres always Something Else that follows on. And one is, the behavior of voters with an expectation, particularly in an era of egovernment. Why shouldnt my records and ballots be available where ever i choose to go . The second thing, and military installations if you want to improve the child halls, the general always makes the food better. One of the things i think is interesting with Election Officials is how many of us vote on election day. How many of us experience that line, that q. And the answer is, most of us vote absentee because of that responsibility. So one of the things ive tried to do over the years is ideal in advance to ago and i stand in line and i learned a lot.
