Wow, only in America can this type of stuff happen!
That's right, Black Enterprise recently ran an article about the absentee ballot mix in Rensselaer County, N.Y. Some 300 + absentee ballots were sent out with the wrong name. How does this happen? I personally cannot see this as merely being a mistake. Is it meant to cause confusion? Similiar to the mess we had right here in our backyard (Chesterfield County-ballot shortage). Why must this "drama" happen when we're trying to push for serious change? Can we all say "Checks and Balances"? Election Commissioners/Registrars need to step up their game or run the risk of being demoted/fired (too bad they are appointed).
Soo... in parting, I encourage everyone to check out the following site (this is only for my fellow Virginians) https://www.voterinfo.sbe.virginia.gov/PublicSite/Public/FT2/PublicLookup.aspx?Link=Registration
This site will allow you to double check your Voter Registration as well as preview the upcoming election ballot. Let's use the technology to our advantage.
Excellent resource for also verifying your polling location. There have been some changes in Chesterfield. If any of you are Chesterfield residents and vote at the Providence Middle School location, I'll be looking for you on election day. I'll be an Election Officer there! (5am - until). Wow! I'm sleepy already!
