A Pennsylvania woman whose absentee ballot was returned to her instead of being counted said she flew from Berlin back to her home state to vote in person.

    How the hell did she get a round-trip ticket from Germany to the United States for $1100? Did she have to ride in the luggage compartment?

      It’s pretty inexpensive this time of year because Germany is cold as balls. My mom and I took a 9 day trip there in the winter a few years back for 2k each, including hotels.

      Have you ever purchased a flight to/from Germany to/from US? It’s not that expensive, especially in the off season

      It’s not that expensive to fly to Germany from the US (or vice versa), especially from the East Coast.

        I guess Germany isn’t really a tourist destination for most people.

          That’s not the reason lmao, also it was a return flight in the opposite direction so the US would be the “destination”

          Your critique makes no sense
