Every time there is an election I hear about people who don't get to vote because they weren't properly registered, went to the wrong place to vote, they don't have the right ID, os some other reason. And then those people start hollering they were disenfranchised. Who's fault is it if you don't get to vote?
Probably 99% of the fault belongs to you. You weren't registered properly? When did you go to the court house and find out what you needed to do to register to vote? Did you have the proper documentation? In some cases it might be difficult to get what you need. But it's not impossible. Your name wasn't on the list? Well the day you vote is a little late to be checking on that. Do it really early. You didn't know where to vote? Look, they don't have to notify you where you are to vote. And asking your neighbor is OK IF they work at the court house. It was cold the day you werre supposed to vote and there were long lines? Have you heard of early voting? ICYWW I've already voted.
