Yeah, that pesky registration thingy.

Oh I was registered... I've looked into a bit more and the Califoria voter info site says there might be problems with people who registered to vote at the DMV, which was the case with me...

Damn...

Give an illegal alien a few bucks to go in and vote for you.

You should call Jesse Jackson and stand arm-in-arm with him in front of the polling place, singing, "we shall overcome".

I'll go back there now and see if they can let me give a provisional ballot.

Wish me luck.

Yeah Grun, if you were registered for this election and have a card you need to look into it. I'm being serious here. No matter who you vote for, every eligible voter should be allowed to cast their ballot.

Republicans aren't allowed to vote in California, Grun. You should have registered Democrat.

I re-register every presidential election specifically to avoid this sort of problem, sorry to hear it got ya.

On the positive side, the electoral college means your vote doesn't really count anyways....
