Back when I was doing GOTV for Kerry in inner city Cleveland, OH we were stunned by the number of folks who’d gotten calls from the OH Sec of State’s office (who happened to be Bush’s OH campaign chair) “informing” them they couldn’t vote because, e.g., they hadn’t voted in the last election, or even because their brother was in jail! Cretins stooping to new lows all the time. We have to prioritize fixing our election system, job #1!
