Dear Federal Government,Congratulations on making the part of my absentee ballot that I have to read and understand or else got to jail as illegible as possible. Also, about #5… Who the hell cares if I let someone observe me marking my ballot? And I have to promise to “have not been influenced”?? No, I try not to listen to the candidates or their policy opinions. Is “influenced” really the best word there? I’d say “coerced” is what you mean. It’s this kind of wishy-washy legal language backed by threats of imprisonment that makes me more fearful than proud of you. Overseas and overseen,Erik

Dear Federal Government,

Congratulations on making the part of my absentee ballot that I have to read and understand or else got to jail as illegible as possible. Also, about #5… Who the hell cares if I let someone observe me marking my ballot? And I have to promise to “have not been influenced”?? No, I try not to listen to the candidates or their policy opinions. Is “influenced” really the best word there? I’d say “coerced” is what you mean. It’s this kind of wishy-washy legal language backed by threats of imprisonment that makes me more fearful than proud of you.


Overseas and overseen,
Erik
