The City of Saint Louis, Saint Louis County, St. Charles County and Jefferson County all have increases in absentee voting this time around.

The Trib editorial page has forgiven Ryan and I would be willing to had he addressed the issue forthrightly and with some courage that he certainly has shown in his personal life. He has not.
