You can vote on election day even though you sent a mail in ballot earlier right? They just destroy the mailed in one.

- graywh 6y agoI think in most cases, your in-person vote in that situation is provisional -- meaning it will only count if your mail-in vote doesn't arrive
- jaccarmac 6y agoJill Stokke was explicitly given the option to have her mail-in vote invalidated so she could vote in person. That was in Nevada; Procedures elsewhere may be different.
- jaccarmac 6y agoThat is correct, and is precisely what happened with Stokke. Stokke came to the polling place was told that her mail-in ballot had already been received. She was given the choice to sign an affadavit claiming that she had not voted by mail, which would allow her to vote in person. She refused to sign the affadavit and then began to peddle her story as evidence of fraud. Really makes you think...
- codys 6y agoThis is state dependent. In some states, voting in person after sending a mail in ballot is a felony.
