I had to vote absentee because on Election Day I'll be in Portland, OR. I walked into the courthouse, showed my driver's license, told them my correct address, they looked me up, I signed for a ballot, and voted. When I'd marked my ballot (with a pencil!) I folded it, put it into an envelope and sealed the flap. I left the voting booth and was handed a second envelope, in which I put the first envelope; signed across the flap of the second envelope and put it into the locked box that was bolted to the desk.

No sweat at all.
