I went to vote with an absentee ballot and asked for help from the person woking the counter. She went line by line and told me to vote straight democrat. I voted mostly republican. Everything was well until I handed in my ballot and asked if I did it right. She then promptly ripped up my ballot and voters registration card and said I could no longer vote. Ever. I don't know what to do???? I think I may have voted incorrectly and now I am banneed for life.

I went to my court house and picked up the ballot and asked if I could fill it out and hand it in. They said yes. Then the problems started. I should go get another ballot?

u could sue her, or go to your head of elections, like in canada I would go to the ministry of Elections. It is improper to rip up somebodys card, and she should be arested and charged!

First of all, in any polling place there are multiple volunteers, from both parties and also non-affliateds. It is designed to prevent exactly the mythical scenario you present. I have been involved in both poll watching and also campaigns and that is one of the reasons electronic voting machines that do not include a verifiable paper ballot concern the hell out of me. What you just said could never happen in a polling place, however it can happen very easily inside the electronics of a electronic voting machine.

Absentee ballots get mailed in, hence the term absentee. You aren't supposed to show up with one anywhere. If you are serious then you need to contact a lawyer because that is absolutely illegal.

Well if your story was accurate & true I think you should persue a legal remedy.
However the reality is that your only remedy will come from your doctor. Seek help please!
Nothing in your story sounds believable. Are you even old enough to vote?

perchance it relatively is because of the fact Obama assaults people who tell the reality? And makes use of racism as a protection. there is genuine voter fraud taking place with ACORN, had it been one or 2 circumstances, then perchance it relatively is in basic terms the staff and ACORN itself isn't in touch, yet this is now got here approximately in 12 states. this is greater then some volunteers.

Please, get real.
Talk to somebody else, report it and get another ballot.
You're still a registered voter. They can't ban you for how you vote.
