This week, we filled out our absentee ballots. Everything was fine until I happened to notice that the ballot pamphlets were in conflict with each other. For the office of city council members, one instructed vote for one while the other instructed ‘for no more than four.’ Verna’s pamphlet is on the left.
I attempted to contact the Los Angeles County Clerk’s office, but as everyone knows, that is a bottleneck. I waited more time than I had and finally gave up.
Has anyone else noticed this? I believe the vote for no more than four applies, but wonder how many absentees will only vote for one.
How strange. I haven’t heard anything about that, but I’ll ask around about it tomorrow. Are the ballots for different parties?
Thank you Toni – I appreciate that.
Both ballots were for the same political party – Verna did mention that although we sent our requests for ballots at the same time, they arrived several days apart in the mail.

With Verna’s long-shot at getting a bogus ballot, maybe the karma will extend to winning the Lotto or something. Just saying . . .
