The Soldiers' Vote

Summary

Every loyal state except Maryland currently allows soldiers the right to vote in the upcoming election. The Examiner argues that Maryland's soldiers be given the right to vote. Although they cannot vote in their camps like soldiers from other states, they should be sent home, "if exigency permits," to vote there.
