Yesterday, my boyfriend Steve found out his name has been removed from the voter list in Kentucky. He voted in the November 2003 elections, and has not moved, changed his name or marital status since then, but somehow his registration just magically disappeared. He was registered as an Independent, but is actively involved with the Democratic party and several liberal organizations. Steve's the kind of person who e-mails his senators, who calls up CNN/FOX when he doesn't agree with what they're broadcasting, etc. He has resubmitted his voter registration, but what is scary about this is that if it weren't for one of the many political websites he belongs to checking it out for him, he never would have known until he showed up at the booths on Election Day. PLEASE make sure your voter registration is complete and accurate. Call your local County Clerk's office, or just resubmit an application to vote, just to be sure. I honestly don't care what you believe in or who you vote for, PLEASE make sure you're registered to vote and go out there and DO IT. No American should be denied their right to vote.
