It's likely I'm being really paranoid, but maybe not. I moved to a new place
recently, and sent in a change of address form over a month ago to the board
of elections. As of two days ago, I'd received nothing, so I called them to
be sure I was registered. Turns out they mutated the name of my street,
which put me in a different polling place. Fortunately, I make copies of
important things before I mail them. I took another look at the form. I'd
printed the information so clearly, it could've been used for the top line
of an eye exam chart. So, one of two things happened. Either someone
torpedoed the application because I'm a registered Democrat, or I was the
victim of an unfortunate fact of life in New York: We allow blind people to
do all sorts of things they shouldn't be allowed to, like have a driver's
license, or work at the board of elections.


I don't think you're paranoid at all. I find it funny that friends of ours who
are registered republicans always vote at the same place, while we (registered
democrats) are constantly changing our voting place for every election, every
year. All of that is moot for us since we now vote the first day of early
voting. So, we've already voted.

this is going to get interesting.
