I checked online and my husband and I had our votes counted. I have no reason to doubt that my choice was logged correctly.
Not everyone has a party, by the way...in fact, it's closing in on the majority of voters being independent.

I wish that you had included an “unsure” category! I took my unopened absentee ballot to my local Early voting place and voted in person. Even with all of the bad press, I’m hopefUl that it was counted.

I don't trust the system at all so even in my DEEP RED county I don't trust my vote was cast for Trump.

Yes I believe my vote was properly recorded.
Sorry about my choice of words. It was meant to say if you were a Republican, did your vote go to Trump or did someone give your vote to the opponent in some nefarious way? (by manipulating or changing the vote). I realize some here do not believe voter fraud exists. That is what the poll was all about. Who thinks fraud is possible and those who don't.

I voted in person so I could be comfortable my vote was counted properly. I didn't trust my corrupt county to count mail in ballots properly. Elected officials here and in neighboring Fulton County, Georgia have been caught in just about crime but election fraud. And maybe they just haven't been caught on that yet.

When you checked online, did it say your vote was "received" but not counted or tabulated in the system?

Yes, I know that it arrived (as I was able to track it online) and I'm also sure that my vote was tabulated correctly. I voted for Biden (who did not win Florida) as well as for several other candidates that did not win in Florida/in my county. I still know that it was counted.

Probably not, who cares. They are going to do what they want with or without my input.

Just rechecked to be sure.

Ballot Status: Your mail ballot was counted.

The poll worker inside the poll booth told me she could not even touch my ballot and I had do the marking/selecting and putting it inside the machine, but before I did, she asked if I agreed with what I selected (?) and I said yes. (I suppose they/you could redo it if you make a mistake) but only then I believe...My only gripe is, was my vote /or could my vote be changed once it went in that machine?
