This, despite the fact that I have been on the voter registration lists in this county for 10 years. I was sent to stand in line with 6 or 7 other people - ALL registered Democrats whose names for some mysterious reason had not shown up on the voter registration list. We had a very LONG wait to cast our provisional ballots and discussed the subject at length. One precinct in one county in one state. Just my personal experience.

Surprisingly, Mr Fargon experienced almost the exact same thing, except he was in Urbana IL and all the people he was waiting with had been registered republicans.

I don't endorse it, but that BS does go both ways.
