NEW YORK (CNN) -- A famous political name does not guarantee hassle-free voting, as former "first daughter" Chelsea Clinton discovered Tuesday. She turned up shortly after 6 a.m. at her polling site on West 20th Street -- in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan -- only to be told her name was not in the voter registration books there, a voting official said. It turned out the registration book for her district had been mistakenly sent to the wrong location, said New York City Board of Elections Executive Director John Ravitz. She filed an affidavit vote -- a paper ballot that allows election workers to confirm that a voter is properly registered after their vote is cast. If the voter is not registered, the vote is not accepted.

There isn't a Republican within miles of there, so if there's an error it's DEMOCRATS!

Well, when you vote in 10 or 20 precincts this kind of thing is bound to happen.

Seeing as how New York city is such a hotbed of Republicans, this is to be expected.

How are we going to pay to fix all of this in light of the Bush tax cuts for the rich?

Sounds like a Democratic Party setup to make the voting fraud seem Republican-inspired. Could they be more obvious?

I really wonder what her reaction was.
Did she accept the fact that she screwed up or did she go Hollywood?
