I think the whole darn world SHOULD be putting the return address in the upper left hand corner. For goodness sake, it just.makes.sense.

Anyway, sorry you’re having such a difficult time, especially after I seemed to have had no difficulty and officially returned a “none of the above” via a slip of note paper.

If it makes you feel any better, your state’s not really in play. Although mine may be. How ’bout that?

I find myself in the same circumstance. Who the hell made up the rules for the federal write in ballot to put an OVERSEAS address in the UPPER LEFT CORNER!!!! Anyone trying to make up legislation for overseas voters who has not left the United States is not qualified for the job. I guess since we put a return address in the upper left the whole world must do the same thing.
