Absentee Ballot Confusion
ADVERTISEMENT
Published: November 4, 2008
11:10 a.m.: Michael Baccich, 57, of Tampa said he was told he'd already requested and returned an absentee ballot when he went to vote this morning. He said he hadn't even requested one.
He was sent to an affirmation desk, where he said poll workers tried to clear up the discrepancy over the phone but couldn't get through to headquarters. Baccich finally cast a provisional ballot for Republican John McCain.
"I'm worried that it isn't gonna count," he said. "Somebody voted for me, that's what I think. The way the operation is in there right now, and the confusion and the backups, they won't get to my ballot until four years from now."
