My absentee ballot arrived today.

Only three races to vote on. The US House and the Tennesee House races
each have the standard Republican/Democrat choices. But I was
surprised to find that there are five presidential tickets on the
Tennessee ballot.

Kerry-Edwards
Bush-Cheney
Badnarick-Campagna
Nader-Camejo
Peroutka-Baldwin

I had to google that last one just now.

I have been of voting age for 21 years now, and have never voted any
way other than absentee. I hear news reports mentioning polling
places, voting booths and voting machines and have zero personal
experience to draw on trying to relate to the story or visualize the
scene.
