IBD: “Obama To Soldiers Overseas: No Voting For You!”

Last week, however, the Pentagon’s inspector general reported that
attempts to locate and contact IVAO offices at overseas military
installations failed about half the time.

“Results were clear. Our attempts to contact IVAOs failed about 50%
of the time,” the inspector general reported. “We concluded the Services
had not established all the IVAOs as intended by the MOVE Act because,
among other issues, the funding was not available.”

The estimated cost of establishing functioning IVAOs at all overseas
military bases not in combat zones is estimated at between $15 million
and $20 million a year. We wasted $530 million on Solyndra but can’t
afford a relative pittance to ensure our soldiers are not
disenfranchised.
