Absentee Ballot Application for Dad

My Dad was so deeply committed to the democratic process that he served as a precinct captain. For many years, he went door-to-door in sleet and snow to register voters. He spend days at the polling place assisting where needed.

I will ensure his vote counts in this historical election year.

I just downloaded the absentee ballot form. He checked the box indicating he is physically handicapped because he is unable to leave the house.

I am excited for him! A Tulsa Massacre survivor, raised in the Jim Crow south, will be able to vote for the first Black president.

BarackObama will give his famous acceptance speech in Denver tonight to a crowd of 70,000.
