snips:
How much is one vote worth?
In the case of an absentee ballot and an antique stamp, it could be hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The 24-cent stamp was named for the plane it depicted, a Curtiss JN-4 World War I trainer that later delivered air mail.
"It could be a forged stamp," Kopkin said.
"It is now public property," County Commissioner John Rodstrom said. "We have the responsibility to make sure that stamp is sold at auction and we get the most for it we can possibly get and put it into our budget."
