Questions from a newer voter in Utah...

I was disallowed the last time I tried to vote on some technicalities that I wrote about in another post's comment. I want to make sure I am "really" registered and set. What's the best way to make sure the voting offices don't cut me out again? It was somewhere between incompetence and voter fraud last time and I just want to make this stick. One person told me I should have registered independent, but it's too late for that. Procedures?

Any ideas?

The other question, do any of you here have and info or experiences with these judges that are up for our approval? Quinn seems to have the lowest observation scores. Then again, I might believe what a normal observer may say, but I have little faith in what attorneys may comment about a judge but that's what we have.

Any input would be appreciated.

Unless you registered within the last couple of months, you should be there.

If they stop you again, consider voting with your feet. NM is close, nice, and we have paper ballots statewide.

with their nice paper ballots with their own deposit boxes. Why does any state think it should be different? If you are a logical thinker, there is no other answer than the spectre of vagueness outside our control that needs to be maintained by the states that use voting machines or other devices of manipulation.

Those OR voting parties were fun.
