Question for DUers involved in campaigns :re voter rolls

[2004Donkeys]

How much information are in the voter rolls that parties receive about a voter. Is it true that our SSNs are displayed on the rolls? This issue seems scary to me.

1. In NM: No, not on the rolls provided to the public

like for canvassing. You can check on the voter registration if you want to be shown.
SSN or other Ident can be checked at the polls to verify a voter through the computer system or it is on the voter's registration card. But, they aren't even checking cards now. They look to see if your name is on the precinct list. If you are voting out of precinct, then you do a provisional ballot which is scrutined like an absentee ballot at the clerk's office.

2. Voting out of precinct

In Texas, if you vote a provisional ballot at a precinct other than your own, the vote will most likely (probably definitely) not be counted. On election day (not early voting), if you want your vote to count you must vote in your precinct. Ballots can differ from precinct to precinct because of different political boundaries. If you were to vote out of precinct you could be illegally voting for someone not within your particular political boundaries. Voting out of precinct would allow people to unduly influence local elections. While I would love to vote against that spawn of satan Tom DeLay, he is not in my district (and don't think I'm not grateful for that). I would greatly resent people not residing in my district trying to vote for or against my representative.
