TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Federal officials say that absentee ballots being sent to U.S. military serving in Afghanistan may have been burned in a plane crash.

A top official in the Federal Voting Assistance Program this week notified election officials across the nation that a transport plane crashed at Shindad Air Base on Oct. 19.

The crash resulted in the destruction of 4,700 pounds of mail inbound to troops serving in the area.

Federal officials in their email to state election offices said they did not know if any ballots were destroyed. They also said the lost mail was limited to one zip code.

But they recommended that election officials resend a new ballot to anyone who requested one since the first ballot may have been destroyed in the crash and fire.

Considering some of the other things done in the last election ,this would not surprise me in the least.

Yes, we all know how the White House is out to destroy military ballots in fiery plane crashes... <\sarcasm>

It tends to get a bit outlandish sometimes. Whaddya gonna do?

I agree it sucks, when I first read the topic my temperature rose a bit because I had to do my vote via absentee and I thought it was going to say something along the lines of VA absentee ballots. We (military) tend to get screwed though every election season some way or the other with the votes. Maybe once they can get it right...
