Pajamas Media, where I am a contributor, has launched a project to collect  information about servicemembers who have received ballots late, not at all, or, encountered other problems with participation in the elections.   Maybe you contacted election officials and it solved the problem; maybe not.  Maybe you contacted the DOJ to complain and you then obtained a ballot; maybe not.  Maybe you got your ballot in time to use the express mail seven day option; or not. 

Either way,  Congress will be examining what went wrong in 2010 with military ballots.  Changes to the law may be forthcoming.

Here’s how military members, and military families, can make a difference. 

Pajamas Media wants to hear your stories.  My latest piece at Pajamas Media explains some of the problems, and tells you how you can get involved to make the system better for 2012.  Click here for more information.
