Still haven't received voter registration card.

I live in McHenry county (Joe Walsh's district I believe, I live within walking distance of his office) and applied for a voter registration about 2 months ago at the library, and still haven't received anything in the mail. I have the receipt sitting around somewhere.

Just wanted to throw that out there, in case anyone else has had problems. I'll need to look into this some more after work....

because it was marked "D". Best get your read down to the county clerks office.

If you find you're registered, PRINT IT OUT and carry in your wallet.

These days, you cannot be too careful, especially if you're a Dem in a Repub county.

They said I was already registered, just never received the card until after I called.

Right after I moved to me new home, I had not yet registered and I was unable to vote, despite my drivers license having my new correct address. So I don't know what people are complaining about it being too easy to vote.

Thanks.
