Mary says that ALL of her signatures are there. I’m going to have to ask her to explain. She also says that you have an interesting “point” system for registering. Different tyyypes of ID have different point values, and you have to have a total of 10 (?) points, or your registration is rejected.

I don’t know whether to be mad, or glad, about my grandson who did NOT REGISTER to vote! He worked a night job all summer so was not available to register during the day. He’s back at school and says that nobody he knows is very interested in this election (one of the SUNY campi). If they are not interested, then I don’t want them voting. But, it’s like a dagger in my heart that my oldest grandchild is not registered.

I emailed him an application last Thursday, but he was off with his friends on “Fall Break” visiting in Ohio. Who ever heard of “Fall Break”? Of course he did not take his computer with him on break.

Registration deadline for the presidential election this year was October 17th. He won’t be voting this year.

I will have to check to see how many signatures are there. Book would be awfully big to hold all mine, I have voted in every election since I turned 18.

Down here in the South, Y'all get a Fall break when your College/University doesn't start until after Labor Day.....

Y'all also get a Winter break if your School is finished before Memorial Day.

Which SUNY campus? Suny Binghamton is just down the road form me. NY is big on fall breaks up here. All our schools seem to take them. Usually, just a long weekend.
