And I'll play a bit of Devil's Advocate here...every one of us should be able to be registered as we want...not what some political hack wants OR what some incompetent office worker put down.

It's really outrageous that our Right to Vote had roadblocks and obstacles put in our way. It should be criminal to do such.

It's evident at this point that a lot of fraudulent activity has been going on. It's a touchy subject, and nobody wants to get burned.

to help them get properly registered before Friday. This could be another nightmare and big loss if people think that they are properly registered and they aren't

You need the name, birthdate, county and zip code of the voter. I checked mine, and several family members'. We're all good (including my newly registered 18-year-old niece). But I printed each individual's info for proof in case anything changes between now and April 19th.

mine seems okay but I too will print it and bring it along. I am a LIFE LONG DEM so if something happens we will know something is rotten in Albany.

The NY Democratic Party is totally in the tank for Hillary - a fellow Bernie supporter/delegate was at an official Democratic party meeting a this summer and the woman running the meeting said at the end of the meeting "NOW LET'S GET HILLARY CLINTON ELECTED". You can imagine how that went over.

Yours might change. You could probably take a print out and have it notarized with a date and signature, just to be safe. (If you have a bank account ask if the bank has a free notary service. Mine does).

I definitely call shenanigans on this.

Check ASAP to make sure your voter information has not changed. Tell your friends and family about this too. Film the voter registration clerk on your cell phones telling you that you are registered to vote as a Dem. so that you have another piece of proof. Make sure that you ask them the date while you film them.

for elections? Didn't they use wi-fi connections in places like Arizona?
Computers are not good for elections. If data gets corrupted, it can flip a bit, and you are screwed.
As long as they have a paper copy of the rolls, you can check it with your county board of elections.
But if you want to change it, it's just too late.
