Sooo hey. To the "if you don& #39;t vote, you can& #39;t complain" crowd: lots of people who would like to can& #39;t vote.

Like me. For the first time in 20 years, I won& #39;t be casting my vote for President because the absentee ballot I requested in spring has not arrived yet.

The last time this happened, I had just arrived in NYC from my home state, and had requested an absentee ballot.

My absentee ballot FROM FLORIDA was in my hand the night I watched the Supreme Court appoint Dubya POTUS.

There is voter suppression happening here that WE DO NOT YET FULLY UNDERSTAND. I& #39;m still on my voter rolls, but both my voting district and polling place have been changed. I can only vote in person.

Y& #39;all PLEASE don& #39;t jump on this thread with simple bullshit. I& #39;m truly upset about this and scrambling to find a fix.

It& #39;s SO EASY to just encourage people to do the best that they can to vote, and just leave it there. We& #39;re all stressed.
