Outrage Over Preventing Military Votes

The American people should not allow the election of any local, state, or federal official to be confirmed until every single ballot of overseas military personnel, who wants to vote, is counted. Right now we have shenanigans going on with their precious right to vote. This appears to be the case in Illinois, Wisconsin, Colorado, Maryland, Washington, and a total of 10 states, maybe more. The law requires every state to mail their absentee ballots 45 days prior to Election Day to overseas troops who want to vote from abroad. In all cases the problem is with the states failing to issue overseas ballots in a timely fashion, NOT with military personnel responding with their ballots.

It would be a sacrilege of the worst kind to deny our military personnel their right to vote, those who put their lives on the line every single day for America. It is unbelievable and an outrage that this situation has been allowed to occur. There should be further outrage by all Americans that this is most probably done on purpose, as still another attempt to bias the elections throughout our country.

Where is Congress on this outrage? Where is the Obama administration? Where is the Justice Department? Where is the media on this? All should be shouting from the rooftops.

The American people should not allow this to happen. Every vote. Every overseas military person who wants to vote. Counted. That is THE ONLY acceptable answer.
