1. Voters

Be sure and safe and bring your drivers License with you. You still need to prove with a photograph who you are.
Just be safe so you don't end up getting pissed off and kicking someone's ass.

2. Ewww I nearly did in the last vote. The older woman couldn't

find my name on the voter's register. She tried 4 various times. They called someone and who said to give me a provisional. After the provisional was provided, a nice man came over to look at the ladies list (which 3 other additional people at the tables also had) and located my freaking name. Wizards I tell you wizards. I voted a regular ballot but was pissed enough to spoil the provisional myself.

3. According to a yahoo news story:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060912/ap_on_re_us/voter_identification

PHOENIX - A federal judge on Monday refused to block a law that requires Arizona voters to present identification before casting a ballot.

ADVERTISEMENT

U.S. District Judge Roslyn Silver's order came a day before Tuesday's primary, the first statewide election for which voters will be required to show identification. The law has already been used in some municipal elections.

The 2004 law requires that voters at polling places produce government-issued picture ID or two pieces of other non-photo identification specified by the law. It also requires proof of citizenship when registering to vote.

Parts of the law were aimed chiefly at illegal immigrants.

4. What the law is really about

The elderly and poor are less likely to have the required identification. Also, slowing down the lines hurts wage workers who are tring to vote early morning before work, during lunch or after work. The illegal alien scare was just to sell it to voters.

5. I realize immigration was the big scare tactic ...

was just quoting the article mainly to let folks know to bring ID with them.

When I voted this morning, one younger person didn't have ID. Was turned away.

7. Polls are still open, so no results yet...

Edited on Tue Sep-12-06 09:50 PM by tyedyeto

that I've seen.

Edit to add:

There was one electronic voting machine for the disabled at my polling place, but no one was using it when I voted this morning.
