IMPORTANT VOTING INFO!!!

This is from a friend of mine in the East Village of Manhattan who had trouble in her polling station this morning. She said that when only one voting machine was working, they handed out paper ballots to the long line of waiting voters:

I saw the paper ballots people used being ripped up -- so don't use a paper ballot unless you absolutely can't wait in line anymore. And make sure it's an emergency ballot -- NOT a provisional one.

In the end, she said it took her 95 minutes to cast her vote, after arriving at 6am and the station not opening until 625am.

Be aware. Report anything that smells like fraud. AND VOTE!!!
