Denied the right to vote - HFT - 11-02-2004

I am PO'd today and just have to vent.
I got up early this morning to go vote. Went to my polling place, signed by my name and was waiting for a booth to open to cast my vote when a lady sitting at the table says sir have you moved? I said yes. Because I have moved a few blocks down the street even though I am a registered voter they denied me the vote.
So today I am saying a big screw you to this democracy or should I say bureaucracy.

Bummer dude. It's all a government plot. I guess you'll just have to go fishing instead.

Go to: mypollingplace.com and enter your address. It should give you another voting location based on your newest address. In addition, you might be able to request a provisional ballot which allows you to vote and the validation of your vote happens after the election. Only problem is that I hear some of these ballots (provisional) may not get counted at all depending on the voting results. Sorry to hear about the negative experience. Especially since all you were trying to do was exercise your right.. I hope it all works out for you..
