I read some beforehand and wrote some comments, lost them. wrote
more comments. .. pasted them in the wrong cells. read more, wrote
more. .... pasted those comments in a the document that was 'wanna
read' instead of the 'did read' .... I was thinking for awhile that
maybe I should up the meds. .. *sigh*
once I got the ballots, I had h.e.double-hocky-sticks trying to find
all my earlier comments in their various docs and get them in the
right ballots, but after that it was easy.
I pasted the ballot in an email and saved it in draft. I could click
on the link, read the story, open the draft mail and write my vote,
then close the mail with a 'save changes'. The ones that I decided
not to read (for whatever reason) I simply deleted from the ballot as
I went down the list. When I got to the bottom, I pasted the whole
thing to the yahoo mail and sent. It couldn't have been easier.
So the main thing for me (regardless of the length of voting season)
would be to have the ballots available as early as possible. I would
*like* to have them at the start of reading season, then the voting
season could be an open two weeks, (or four weeks) and it wouldn't
matter as much.

That wouldn't be a problem. In fact, anyone could have had a ballot before
Reading Season: Just save the last check ballot! There were few errors by
then and probably just typos. The corrected check ballots were changed into
ballots only by changing the header and footer.
Putting ballots up after the last Check Ballot is no problem at all.
Anyone opposed?
