If anyone cares, I can confirm voter registration is fubar. We've voted here and are registered to our party for the last, oh, six years. Today my wife was told the only registration they have was in Yonkers and she wasn't on the list, had her fill a provisional. While we were there two more people came in and couldn't vote, the staff claimed the party was 'angry' any time they called up to ask questions. We have never lived in Yonkers and she's been 'on the list' for the last six years, we vote in every election including local...

I pulled her up online and confirmed the site claims 'registered Dem in Yonkers'. We have never, ever lived in Yonkers or had any Yonkers address associated with us.

That's legitimately not good.

Walter.
I know you know how to do this.
Get up.


Came here to post my own anecdotes about voting, looks like I'm not alone.

I was near a polling place and overheard four people, who were not together, discussing not being on the list and talking to one another about experiences. It sounded like they had all lived in the same place for years and always voted there, but were not present this year. Overheard another man on his phone while walking who was angry that his name was not on the voter list; sounded like it was his second attempt after his first polling place suggested he go elsewhere.

My fiancee voted without incident.

I am not registered in the state of NY so I don't have a personal experience.

This is in Manhattan.

The lawsuit is going to be heard in 20 minutes, I hope there's some new coverage in the courtroom and maybe a fresh change of diapers for the people bringing the suit.

I'm genuinely flabbergasted that localities are still this FUBAR with regard to voting, even after seeing the shitshow that was Arizona. You'd think that would be a wake-up call, but nope.

I don't see how the judge is going to turn this into an open primary with 8 hours of voting already passed.

new york's problems are huge and will take many millions of dollars to fix. the voting machines are old and broken, the election administration is incompetent, and they work on systems that jfk would have considered a little old fashioned. it's not a new issue, and not one that can be solved overnight.

Can you imagine the poo poo fit that would be thrown if they had tried to change anything once the other states started voting?

Staten Island was originally supposed to be a part of New Jersey but in the 1600's the governor of New Jersey staked it on a bet that the governor of New York couldn't circumnavigate the island in 24 hours in a small yacht. Well, he did, and now Staten Islamd is a part of NYC #suckityonkers
