People have never cared so much about the color of a state, nor the political endeavors of hockey moms as they do now. We’ve all heard way too much about this election, and I for one am ready to see a picture other than Obama or McCain on the cover of the Times. But, complacency is no longer an option. Many of us have gotten so invested in the potential outcome that the idea of an opponent winning will determine the extent to which we drink whiskey on a daily basis.
This is too important to let slip by. Don’t let what happened to the Georgians happen to you. If you believe you’re a registered voter here in Saratoga Springs, and are turned away at the polls (@ the ICC in Case Center), you have options:
- Request a Court Order by calling the Saratoga County Board of Elections @ 518-885-2249 and asking for Bill Frucci. A judge will be on-call so they can make an executive (that is, judicial) decision on the validity of your voter status.
- Fill out an affidavit (paper) ballot available on the site of the polls.
- If you’re not registered, locate one of the election inspectors at the polling place and ask them what to do next.
I’m tired of hearing about all of this voting business. Skidmore Unofficial is tired of posting about it. So, with one last plea, VOTE!
After you vote you can head over to Case Center where the people who brought you that series of Debate watching parties (Skidmore Dems) will be hosting an Election results party. (fbook).
