VBM public service announcement (Absentee Voter List)

GA is concerned about possible voter disenfranchisement, fraud and/or confusion because of the recent  unannounced city wide absentee ballot drive;  remember folks were showing up at residences all over Hoboken with completed absentee ballot applications- like this:

This stealth unsolicited VBM drive is a recipe for confusion on Election Day (tomorrow).

There may be voters who signed up to vote absentee, but did not receive an absentee ballot, or perhaps they did but accidentally threw it away.  In any case, those voters who have not voted yet should go to the polls tomorrow. 

Another possibility is fraud. Say someone signed your VBM application for you, and you didn't recognize the absentee ballot when it was sent to you so you tossed it.  When you show up at the polls- guess what? You are told you are on the VBM list and can't vote.

The action to take if any of the above applies to you is simple. 

Go to your polling station and tell the poll worker you would like to vote by PROVISIONAL ballot.  Polls are open from 6AM - 8 PM.

So voters, if any of these situations apply to you:

(1) You applied for a VBM but have not received it by tomorrow.

Go go to your polling station, and ask the poll worker for a PROVISIONAL ballot. Vote. 

(2) You did not apply for a VBM but are told at the polls you can't vote because you applied to vote absentee ask for a PROVISIONAL ballot. Vote.

If a poll worker is giving you a hard time and not letting you vote, ask a Challenger for help.

Got that?
