[lbo-talk] registering in Florida

[Doug Henwood]

An acquaintance just moved to Florida and had some fun registering to 
vote. He and his wife filled out the forms, and declared themselves 
as Dems. No ID cards came in the mail. So they called the clerk's 
office to see what was up. At first, the clerk said there was no 
record of the registration. When pressed, the clerk said the 
registration was on hold for a wrong address. "Impossible," the new 
registrant replied. Ok, said the clerk, then it's no signatures. They 
went over to the registrar's office to see the forms - the signatures 
had been cut off. Registrants argued, and the clerk agreed to 
re-register them and hand over the ID cards on the spot.

How much of this is going on?
