HEY!

Today is State Primary day.
Go here to find out voter information.
If you 've moved, you have to reregister. And you should before the general election, deadline is Oct 13.

The best link on the site is My Election Information You plug in your address, which they ask you for at the polling site, and it leads you to links for your ballot in the area (depending on what you're registered as) and your polling place (which for me has changed)

Look, I don't care WHO you like or WHOM you're voting for, or how many problems you have with the system. AT the age of 18 YOU have a LEGAL voice in the form of elections. PLEASE don't waste it. It's your chance to be part of things, to say "THIS Is what I want!"

*shrugs* Yeah I know very few people agree with me. I'm going to be voting today and on November 3. Excuse me, November 2. Thanks to Xani for picking it up, and NO thanks for being a jerk.

And I have to get to work, less voting stuff later.

Help me out?

This was easier when I lived in a town not a city.
1) I choose a ballot correct? City of Boston says I am "Party Unenrolled"
2) If I am Ward 20 Precinct 20, who can I vote for?

Yep
That's the Dem ticket only. If you want to vote with another party I believe you can.

There isn't a single person on the Republican, Libertarian or Green-Rainbow primary ballots. Who ever is elected Sheriff in the primary will be the new sheriff. Must research ANDREA CABRAL vs STEPHEN J. MURPHY.

If I recall, they'll ask you which party you want to vote with.
And if they're sneaky, they'll just enroll you with that party.
I'm not clear about that one, since I've been a registered Dem since my first election. But I believe they also have to ask you if you want to remain without a party affiliation.

That other site was very clear about who was on my ballot. For all parties. You can also ask the voting place people for assistance, they're Supposed to know. BUT, at my place they are ALL old biddies *grins* and they can barely look at me, let alone answer questions.

I've always heard that you do get automatically enrolled with the party if you vote in the primary. People apparently immediately unenroll after voting.

Maybe the rules have changed on that. It would be nice.
