VOTE TOMORROW!
Posted by: irisbSo, I feel like a looser because I didn't know that tomorrow was voting day. I mean, I've seen the signs around for "Official Voting" places, but they've been up for so long, I kind of started to ignore them! Here are the stupid questions I had to ask my mother (who votes at every election, religiously - GO MOM!) and I will list them below, so that no one else has to feel stupid like me!
Q: Is Tuesday the only day we can vote?
A: Yes, you ignoramus, Tuesday is the one and only chance you will have to place your vote, if you didn't already take advantage of the early voting. Tuesday is it! No more chances after that!
Q: What if I can't find my voter registration card?
A: Who cares! Certainly not the people at the voting booths! Just bring your drivers license to show them.
Q: How do I know if I'm registered to vote?
A: Well, chances are that when you were 18 years old and had to go to the DMV to renew your license from when you initially got it at 16, they made you do it right then. And no, you don't have to renew your voting card like you do your drivers license. Once it's done, it's done for life.
If you still think that you need to register to vote, you can get an application here, but you are too late for tomorrow's election. Apparently, "the application must be received in the Voter Registrar’s office or postmarked 30 days before an election in order for you to be eligible to vote in that election."
Q: Where can I vote?
A: I don't know where YOU can vote, because I don't know where YOU live! I know where I can vote, because I have seen the signs in my neighborhood for the last couple of weeks. But generally speaking, elementary schools or libraries in your neighborhood will be the place to go. To find out for sure, call this guy:
Elections Administrator
Bruce Sherbet
2377 North Stemmons, Suite 820, Dallas 75207
Tel: (214) 819-6300
Fax: (214) 819-6301
So there you go folks! Get out there and vote! And if you work, and are trying to use that as an excuse to not vote, the places to vote are open from 7AM to 7PM, so you can go before or after work. OR, you can tell your boss that they could get in a lot of trouble if they try to prevent you from voting by FORCING you to stay at work! (That's not really true though, given the hours that polling places are open, but it's a tactic you could try if you were feeling hostile.)
