Bristol Palin has been so busy practicing her moves for "Dancing With the Stars," she apparently forgot to send in her absentee ballot.

The 20-year-old daughter of former Gov. Sarah Palin, who campaigned for candidates across the nation in this election, told the syndicated TV show "Inside Edition" after Tuesday's night show, "I did not send in my absentee ballot in Alaska. I'm going to be in trouble. Sorry, Mom!"

Fellow Republican political daughter Meghan McCain later slammed Palin's forgetfulness. On "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," McCain said "I guess it's only important for Bristol Palin to vote for 'Dancing With the Stars.' I think a lot of women worked really hard to give us the right to vote. Anyone that doesn't vote is just ridiculous."

Bristol Palin also voiced her opinion on whether she thinks her mom should run for president in 2012.

"Of course I do. I know that she's great and she'd be great for our country," she said.

Palin will be one of five people returning to dance Monday on "Dancing With the Stars."
