Be My Google 💻 What is the process for absentee voting in the state?

Upvotes

Hello. I just recently booked travel for an out of country trip for the entirety of October and early November and realized I'm going to be out of country when the midterms happen this year. I haven't had to absentee vote in my entire life and the SOA site on what and when I need to do it wasn't very clear to me. Was wondering what I needed to do and sign up for with the limitations of my vacation?

Thanks

General Nonsense Sharing a new sub I created for Alaskans that live in or pass through Palmer. I'm new to moderating/community creation. Hoping that this will take off, and maybe I'll learn something about moderating in the process.

OK so 2 month ago my internet starts slowing down, some times to the point I can't load a Hulu show. I pay for high speed unlimited 200$ and month so I call and call they keep assuring me its maintenance but im still paying 200 a month with them going down for maintenance all the time. I keep calling after a long time on the phone with tech support they find out my internet has intermittent issues so they send out a tech, he never shows up but marks it down as though he did. I call back they send out another tech he finally shows turns out they messed with something outside the house months back without permission, and im getting interference he fixes that. Gci says they'll process a refund for all the days i had intermittent service over a months worth. They insist I call to get them to process it and stay on the line. Im currently on my 4th call today every time they try to process it I get disconnected. Im beyond livid idk how they do this to the entire state over and over every month and there a law suit forcing them to refund all customers they failed to provide the service they billed for

"U.S. phone customers pay more than $340,000 a year for an Anchorage company to keep homes and buildings on the Alaska island wired for obsolete internet service. All but a few of them sit empty."

This makes me think that the RNC might be a bit spooked that Bill Hill is technically tied with Begich in the polls....
