 KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Missouri is one of the hardest states in the country in which to vote based on the laws regarding your ballot, according to an interactive map put together by NBC News.

There are only two states in the U.S. — Missouri and Mississippi — that severely restrict mail-in voting, do not allow advance voting for all registered voters and don’t allow voters to track mailed-in ballots.

Missouri also doesn’t allow voters to register and vote on the same day.

Missouri require two pieces of ID'
Missouri only accepts mailed ballots no drop off
Missouri requires mail in ballot to be notarized.
Missouri will only count ballots recieved by election day.. no matter the postmark

Two ID's is ridiculous. You couldn't vote early in Virginia without an excuse until this year. I took advantage of it the first day possible, on Sep 18th and the wait was about an hour. My daughter told me today her friend waited 4 hours last Saturday and that frankly shocked me. The suppression all over is just unbelievable Cricket. Americans should demand major reforms nationwide. It is appalling, just appalling that Congress won't update and pass the Voting Rights Act. What disturbs me the most, especially now, is the lack of congressional action to require the Post Office to certify ballot delivery in every zip code in the country. There are far too many rejected mail in ballots. I voted in person specifically because of the post office corruption.

 I lived in southern Indiana for about 30 years until I met Alfie.
I used to go to Missouri or rather, Missoura...I never could understand that

Then as I think about it, I hear people pronounce Georgia, Gawga.

Some dialects are strange Just thought, I lived in Washington, Indiana and people pronounced it WaRshington. Really!
