A reminder to voters that requested early ballots, make sure you get them in the mail now. Nebraska Secretary of State John Gale says they haven’t received a surge of ballots returned.

Gale says they are expecting around 220-thousand early ballots but have only received about 140-thousand. Ballots have to be received by the time polls close on Tuesday.
Gale says it appears they are behind the election in 2012 when it comes to voting early.

He says voters who are in doubt need to drop those ballots off in person at local election offices.
