In big black print it says "<strong>This may not be your ony ballot. Other elections may be held by other political subdivisions by mail or by polling place.</strong>" Oh Noooooooo! The county controls the voter registrations, tells you what precinct you are in, runs the polling places, sends out the ballot papers, and they're telling you this "<em>may not be your only ballot?</em>" Are they so far out of touch with "other political jurisdictions" in their own county that they <em>don't know</em> if there are some other elections going on? Give us a break! The notice does nothing but confuse the voter. Unless.... Oh, we get it now. The county clerk has covered his-or-her ass just in case something got "left off" the ballot. Too bad we're not electing the county clerk this time around. Absentee ballots are being received now in our county, and the envelope bears a somewhat worrisome caution.
