Why can't they fly the ballots over there? Or download ballots?

  It is hard to understand why, in this age of technology, information and rapid movement around the globe, it is that our military cannot receive their ballots in time to vote. Chuck Schumer's MOVE act mandates that states comply with deadlines so that overseas military people can vote in time. Included in Schumer's bill is this over at WIVB:

“The MOVE Act also required all states to make an electronic version of the ballot available for voters all around the world.” Schumer said. “Military and overseas voters don’t have to wait for their ballot to be mailed; they can download it and send it back today. We should all be promoting that.”

  We haven't heard much about an electronic ballot being available to the military. In addition, the other day Schumer made the comment that, because of the failure of government officials to comply, the ballots ought to be flown to their destinations (WIVB):

ALBANY, NY (AP) -  Sen. Charles Schumer is demanding that elections officials in New York City and four upstate counties put military ballots on the next plane to Afghanistan to make sure soldiers can cast their votes. 

  Why this can't be done is a mystery, considering that planes fly back and forth all the time. In fact, today on Fox and Friends it was mentioned in passing that there was some USPS union disgruntlement over who would fly those ballots over--the military or USPS employees. 
  As we know, in close elections and in states that cheat (like Washington, Illinois, Minnesota) even a few votes can make a difference.
  Big Government has more:

This is a national disgrace.  The Illinois State Board of Elections has been lying about the status of military absentee ballots and a lazy Department of Justice has allowed itself to be duped.In an e-mail exchange between the Illinois State Board of Elections and the Department of Justice’s Voting Section shows the State has been misleading DOJ for almost a month.

 J. Christian Adams has been covering the DOJ over at Pajamas Media ever since he left his job there. He suggests there is reason to hope these people will be held accountable soon:

Friday was a very bad day for the people responsible for the Keystone Kops operation protecting military voting rights inside the Justice Department. The three ranking members of the House of Representatives with oversight over military voting issues and the Justice Department sent a devastating letter to Assistant Attorney General Tom Perez. The curtain has been pulled back, and the DOJ spin that they are doing everything they can to protect military voters has become a laugh line.
