Bangor [Maine] Daily News: State bill would disallow ‘do-overs’ for absentee voters

"Lawmakers heard testimony Wednesday on a bill that would prohibit Mainers who cast votes by absentee ballot from asking for a do-over simply because they changed their minds."
The entire article with commenting is at http://new.bangordailynews.com/2011/02/23/politics/bill-would-disallow-%E2%80%98do-overs%E2%80%99-for-absentee-voters/ 
This is outrageous, blocking voters from their ability to vote.  If a voter wants to change his vote before the election, let him do so!

Mainers: You can contact your own state legislators [House of Representatives and Senate] on Bill LD 179. Please remember to mention the bill number.
