Don’t forget to vote no on measure o!!!!!! Put a sunset date to county extortionast!!!!!!
*Extortionist* but otherwise agreed!!! I trust the current Board of Stupidvisors about as far as I could throw them & their Chambers!!!
Its really amazing to me that as a result of my messing up my address (I never use because I have no mail box at my rural home) and I inverted a couple numbers on my registration, that I am now not registered to vote. It makes me wonder what happens to the many folks who have no physical address. You hear about this happening to indigenous etc. communities across the country and I had no idea how common it was even in Humboldt County. We shouldn’t require someone to have a home or even mailing address to vote. Who cares if I got my address slightly wrong. I am over 18 and wanted to register. That’s all it should take. Here’s hoping the conditional ballot counts, though these days, Im sure it doesn’t.
Then why not choose to vote twice or a dozen times when there is no address to check against? Why not vote in a neighboring district cause you want to? Have you ever seen the old movie The Great McGinty? That gives an idea of what can go wrong if there are no such requirements. Homeless quys were given money to vote repeatedly and McGinty busted their bank by finding 37 different places to vote.
“Messing up an address” is pretty questionable in a screening process. And certainly a conditional ballot counts once verified. After they check that you didn’t do the above already.
