I voted in Minnesota today for Hillary Clinton.

5. So this is the difference

We were out of town so went to city hall two weeks ago. The clerk confirmed that we were registered, handed us a ballot that we filled and put in a brown envelope which subsequently was in an absentee ballot envelope. I did not check the label but I think it identified at least the precinct.

Later that week at a "Westside Progressive" meeting, someone said that she used to be an election judge but not any longer since it is too long. That, after the polls close, they then get these envelopes and they have to confirm, again, that they came from registered voters and then they feed the ballots to the machine.

I suppose this is how they know the stats of each precinct.

Still, someone else, who was a candidate in previous elections, was apprehensive about "chain of custody" of absentee ballots.
