Is a same-day registrant's ballot considered a provisional ballot?
I know that in Pennsylvania where I serve as an election judge, registration cuts off 30 days before the election, which seems reasonable. Still, that does not stop the parade of jay-birds claiming they are registered or just don't want to drive over to the proper precinct to vote.
It was highly disruptive this last election when I had to make calls to the court house just to satisfy them. However, that's part of my job. If they aren't in the registration books, they don't vote on our machines. We run a clean show here in Westmoreland County, unlike certain cities in the Commonwealth who shall remain unnamed.
