Voting In Iraq I find no comfort in the thought that I might get blown up or shot were I an Iraqi dropping my vote into the ballot slot. They say that a good turnout in America with no such threat is right around fifty percent, while in Iraq they believe that the turnout will be about eighty percent. I don't know if those predictions are true but in this case it seems like an absentee ballot would be the safest and the wisest thing to do. JamesLee January25 2005 |

I wouldn't recommend sending voters out there to get killed... |
