Final topic from 
Dakota.  Instead of feeding an absentee ender card, they suggest that just 
pressing the yes and no buttons simultaneously should be sufficient to end the 
election.
 
This is not a very 
good idea.  First, its too easy to do this accidentally.  Second, you 
loose the "key" aspect of the ender card.  The ender card is held by the 
"chosen one" and only they can end the election, as opposed to the random poll 
worker who has access to the buttons.  At a very minimum, keeping the 
procedures consistent with our other accounts should take precedence 
here.
