Election Problems

My best friend was nearly prevented from voting today by a poll worker who claimed that my friend had been sent an absentee ballot (he hadn't). The same poll worker tried to pretend that my friend wasn't eligible for a provisional ballot, then apparently mishandled the provisional ballot that was grudgingly supplied when my friend insisted on his rights.

My friend contacted the media.

Are we a banana republic? Did I mention that my friend is ethnic?

If you experience problems trying to vote in today's election:
1.) contact the Election Protection Hotline:
1-866-OUR-VOTE
2.) post on the Democratic Underground site
