And, if you are not removed, you can still be arrested for trying to assert your right to vote!!

1. Why not just show up at the polls in white sheets with burning crosses?
What am I thinking. Repugs would be way too cowardly for that.

3. This is not correct....
Voter rolls are quietly being purged in MANY states.

This year - more than ever - keep checking and re-checking your registration is up to date.

Tell your family and friends to keep checking their registrations, too.

Especially important if your Secretary of State and / or Elections Secretary is a Republican....

'Nuff said.

5. GOOGLE "Board of Elections, yourstate" and CHECK your voter reg - esp if you're
hispanic or black and your state has a Repub governor.

If you can't check online - CALL THEM and check. GET A NAME of who you talked to, record it, along with the time and date in your notes.

CALL THEM AND CHECK YOUR REGISTRATION EVERY TWO WEEKS UNTIL NOVEMBER AND DAILY UNTIL ELECTION DAY!

DO NOT let them take away YOUR right to vote!
