What's this?

And if you are sending in your ballot by dropping off at a Consular post

overseas, your ballot just has to be date stamped by election day by the Embassy or Consulate. They then ship it by diplomatic pouch to the U.S. so that it can get to the county you're registered in, so in theory, you could have absentee ballots arriving to the county a week or more after election day.

Why should our military stationed overseas have to vote two weeks early? -- BB Hokie 03/04/2020 2:47PM

And a reminder these are private political clubs picking their candidates.. -- `lag 03/04/2020 2:51PM

Correct. Also the two parties have different rules for allocating delegate. ** -- Hokie360 03/04/2020 3:22PM

Yep. As we just saw several candidates dropped out the day before. ** -- BB Hokie 03/04/2020 2:45PM

I think it's because all the votes aren't counted yet. ** -- AbsolutVT03 03/04/2020 1:51PM

And yet, they can say who the "winner" is? Makes no sense... ** -- The Bear 03/04/2020 2:30PM

There's no "winner" until the convention picks one. -- `lag 03/04/2020 4:14PM

I mean if one candidate is already ahead by more votes than there are -- AbsolutVT03 03/04/2020 2:48PM

They also have to do some extra math to figure out how to divide up -- Hokie360 03/04/2020 3:38PM
