A work colleague received her absentee ballot for the US Election through the post today, and I'm afraid I was ridiculously excited at the sight of it. (All those other tickets on the paper not getting any media coverage whatsoever!) She's now trying to track down a US citizen in the town to counter-sign it so that it can get back to Janesville, Wisconsin in time for November 4th.

Wisconsin requires countersigning? Gosh. I'm just trying to figure out if putting "Non-resident US citizen" will result in me being booted off the electoral register next time round due to Illinois's stupid residency requirements, and make the box for citizens abroad with some intention of returning a better option. I mean, I'm not ruling it out, I just ain't planning it yet.
