I just voted and they made me show a picture ID, I was pleased! Hopefully they will require it everywhere.

I didn't get asked to show my ID or my voter registration card. Just gave them my name and signed beside it in the log book. 
Same. Even my 14 year old daughter knew it was fucked up. "What's to stop somebody from just using your name?" Not a god damned thing. |

Here in Missouri I've had to show ID for years. You show your ID, they first check that it is valid then they send you to the cross-check lady. She checks you against the registration rolls and two officials initial and you sign the roll before you are given your ballot.
When I voted this morning the girl in front of me in line had moved and not updated her ID or her voter registration and they flagged her and moved her to "that other line". Say what you will those blue hairs run a tight ship at my polling place and I like it. |

Standard procedure here including just minutes ago when I voted. Was hoping there would be exit pollers... I could have just handed them my sample ballot... Hand them ID. They look at it and find your name in the booklet. You sign in the booklet. They take a sticker with your name on it and put it on a green piece of paper and give that and your license to you. You take the green paper over to the people handing out the ballots and sign it in front of them. They give you your ballot and you go vote. When done you put your ballot in the ballot collecting machine. |
| They had a card reader machine that reads your Driver's license. From there the printer prints out a form with a barcode and your name. That sticker is put into a book (think pharmacy book) where you sign and then are handed a "credit card voting thingy". Put the CC voting thingy in the touch screen machine and vote. When you are done it pops out. Complete. |

After hearing that a machine was changing votes to Zero from Romney, I don't trust the machines. The machine form will make sure there are no "Hanging Chads", while the voter visually checking his/her vote afterwords confirms the vote was correct. We know how well Ds stuff ballot boxes, espc in MN.

I voted a month ago. Showed my voter ID with no picture on it. They gave me a card for the touch screen, I voted, the screen showed me my votes again and asked if it was right. I punched yes, the paper tape was printed and the card returned.
Fast forward to this morning... Son goes to vote and says my name is crossed off. Workes for me. |
