Voter went to polling place she has always gone to, and to which
her registration notice for this election had directed her. She was told that
she was not on their list and that her registration notice & ID were of
no help. Voter filled out a provisional ballot, then called the county auditor
to see what had happened. She was told that attempts had been made to mail
her a notice and that they had been returned by the post office. Voter has
lived at the same residence throughout, has never had a problem voting in the
past, and has never had a problem receiving mail. Voter is mixed-race
(Black/Korean) and noted that several other minority voters were being turned
away as unlisted at her location. The county auditor also informed her that
many people were having this problem in her precinct. |

is inaccurate, and there are no signs. she was able
to call the facility, and they said, "it's not really on lilly rd.," and gave her directions. She found them
inaccurate and difficult to follow. She doesnt know
how anybody could find it. |

Someone came to his door to register him about 2 months ago. he is almost positive he checked the "send me an
absentee ballot" part of the form. no absentee
ballot has arrived and no confirming communication of registration. Also, in
response to my inquiry, no calls or mail of any kind asking him to vote for
anyone/thing. He is worried he is not really registered and the door-to-door
thing was a scam. |
