re: #1110 Afrocity

Please, I almost did not get to vote in the general election because they lost my voter registration card. On election day I went to the polls and supposedly they were to have my name in a book and let me vote. I was not in it. The poll volunteer lady, sat there and said “Oh there is my husband’s name and he has been dead for 5 years.”.

They let me vote using provisional ballot. I still bet my vote did not count. Only 37% IL voted for McCain anyway. Electoral college made it futile for me but I at least wanted to exercise my right to vote. Then last week, I got 3 voter registration cards in the mail. WTF?

Thank God I live in Lake County.
