Where do you find these records online?

I found this site, which lists some states and localities but by no means all. But it doesn't include voter lists for Vermont.

BUMP!

Home project.

Ah, I answered my own question. For Vermont you visit the VT Secretary of State's website, but voter lists will not be online until 2006. Meantime you need to get a paper record from the Town Clerk.

Nice tip. I'll look into it, as well as BUMP it.

Thank you. My mother died this year, and reading this I called the registration and asked that her voter registration be removed.

I think is is a wonderful effort. Think if you know anyone who died.

Also, I think it would be an excellent idea if we had a new law to impose the "death penalty" on anyone who screws intentionally with the voting "system".

[Question_Assumptions]

Just because you request that a deceased voter be removed doesn't mean it will happen. My step-mother had to literally tear the page of her deceased first husband out of the voting book in Bayonne, NJ to stop him from voting. She dared the campaign workers to call teh police when they tried to stop her!

With the new electronic pages they have in New Jersey, that probably wouldn't work, either.

In Denver, a formal written challenge must be made to the election commission at least 60 days before the election. So that gives us until September 3.

I live outside of Denver and will check with my election board on all rules on how to do this. The voter rolls are not online.

If you recall the media tried to give FL to Gore in 2000
VNS was a private consortium owned by
ABC News, The Associated Press, CBS News, CNN, Fox News, and NBC.
All 5 of the networks and cable newsrooms "announced" Gore had won
BEFORE the 2nd time zone in FL had closed.
This cost President Bush votes in the FL panhandle.
I was at a friends house and the State of FL election website results showed President Bush was winning
WHILE the big 5 media TV and Cable newsrooms "announced their" winner.
The big 5 media TV and Cable newsrooms are the real threat to the 2004 election.

..."Early on Tuesday, November 7th 2000, TV stations and various media based in Florida reported that Gore has won Florida which was a big surprise for everyone because of strong republican support. Bush's brother Jeb is governor there and Florida usually gives support to the Republicans. Some of them questioned that and during the night CNN showed 52% Bush's lead over 46% for Gore. It is almost impossible to believe that media could have been that blind and biased to report Gore's victory."...

This is an excellent suggestion. If the records aren't available on line then you can try to get them posted.

Help Keep Poll Workers From Seeing Them

I will look into this - I think it's a big issue. Our voting process is becoming more third-world every year...
