    Not to diminish from your point, yes absentee ballots are good, just

    by encouraging voting but not voting for a particular candidate

    You know this isn’t happening.

      Every church I’ve ever been to has been carefully non-partisan on candidates. It’s not just tax status, they don’t want to cause parishioners to feel unwelcome because they need the attendance.

      I know some churches are being overly political, sure, but I absolutely believe the majority are doing the right thing.

        Then you’ve had good churches. But don’t discount something just because you’ve been lucky.

        They’re not. Every church I’ve ever been to has preached that Democrats are demons.
