"Sure you can vote today. Just not in the Republican Primary."
Self | June 2, 2009 | Freeper NC

Posted on 06/02/2009 2:57:40 PM PDT by new cruelty

I'm writing this fairly quick because I wanted to see if anyone else in NJ experienced the same thing today.

I just went to vote and was told I was not able to vote in the Republican primary because I was registered as a democrat.

I've never voted for a democrat and have never registered with the dnc.

"Well, someone must have entered the information wrong" is what I was told. "You'll have to take it up with the board of elections".

Great. So I can't vote today?

"Sure you can vote today. Just not in the Republican Primary."

Do you not have a voter registration/identification card?

With Democrat criminal manipulation of elections now so commonplace, we are going to have to spend some time and money to stomp them down legally in every election.

Have you called your local TV station?

I don’t know the laws of NJ, but you should be able to fill out a provisional ballot and when you clear up the registration problem,your vote should count

File a provisional ballot.

The right of association is guaranteed by the constitution. Republicans just like Elks, Democrats or Future Farmers of America have a constitutional right to define who they associate with. Follow the rules and associate, or not.

Hire an attorney and sue the democrats for millions.

After receiving your money, move the hell out of the People’s Republic of New Jersey and buy a beautiful home in Texas or Montana.

Happened here in California during the 2008 primaries. They have to let you file a provisional ballot and then prove that your registration was properly changed ( ie they have to have the sworn affadavit that is supposed to reside at the county clerk’s)

They probably "corrected" everybody's affiliation.

After all, how could anyone still be Republican now that the Anointed One has taken his throne.

I do. It says nothing about party registration.

The little spreadsheet that the clerk had did show the letters “DEM” in the row where my name was listed.

He was going by that little spreadsheet and told me that I would have to contact the NJ Board of Elections.

I called Dom Giordano’s folks at 1210AM. They asked me to send him an email.

That NJ flag on yer home page is different ....:o)

Take this issue to the local state and fed election officals. I like to think it is just a mistake but recent events suggest otherwise.

buy a beautiful home in Texas or Montana

The irony is that I moved from Texas back in 2002!

Only three things come to mind.

Obama’s ACORN, Obama’s ACORN and Obama’s ACRON.
