I
got my Proposition 50 ballot at the end of last week. I filled it out
promptly. There was, after all, only one item on the ballot. Mailed it
back in right away.
Yesterday
I got an email from BallotTrax, the system used by the Ca Sec State
office to track ballots and inform people who signed up (like me) where
there ballot was in the process. That email said that my ballot had
been returned by the post office as undeliverable and I should contact
the country registrar of voters to find out what the problem was.
I did so at 0800 this morning.
The
registrar's office said that the email was sent to a LOT of people in
error. They in fact had my ballot and a lot of other ballots and that
processing was going along just fine thank you very much. They are not
completely sure of the source of the email or why it was sent.
And people wonder why Californians have pretty much zero faith in the electoral system.
