Me too. But what is the true cost of mailing your ballot? Imagine for a moment a bunch of cheapskates intentionally do not put enough postage or none at all and their ballot is rejected and returned without being counted. The actual cost could be the failure of your candidate to win. Pretty hefty price. If you have to mail it do as Dana suggested put more than enough postage on it. Preferably as many have suggested, vote in person and know your vote is going to be counted (well maybe not "know" but assume).
