I just learned that someone on my flist has been denied a vote becuase they had no driver's license, but only a student ID, which is a valid ID according to State and Local law where they live. This has been confirmed with the board of elections in that county. I encourage you to GO BACK AND DEMAND YOUR RIGHT TO VOTE.

Print out the web page listing the valid IDs, and CALL the board of elections from the check-in table if needed to get it through their thick skulls. Yes, confrontation can be no fun, but dammit, you have a Constitutional right to cast a vote!

There was actually a sign today that said "Do not leave this polling place without casting a vote" after some statement about using a provisional ballot if there was an issue.

Don't know if that was posted at her polling site, but she replied above, and it was sorted out, complete with apologies from the pollworker.
