Authors, sign in!Virginia and Pennsylvania voters are facing serious threats today, as reports are pouring in. There's evidence of long lines, broken voting machines, ballot shortages and misused absentee ballots. Other states like Florida, Ohio, Colorado and Michigan are also reporting long lines due to problems with registration lists and poll locations.
All voters have the right to vote without intimidation or problems! There's no excuse for these problems. They not only threaten individual voters' rights, but also the very integrity of our election process. Any voters with questions about their rights can call the 1-866-OUR-VOTE (1-866-687-8683). That hotline has thousands of trained volunteers and legal experts able to provide direct assistance to voters in any state or city.
Experts will help callers understand their voting rights, verify their registration status, find their polling places, or resolve Election Day issues.
You can help too! Any time that you can personally invest in front of your local polling locations today to help protect citizen rights - is time well spent. Here's more tips and ideas.

Good post Pam I just heard about Election Protection in the news a few minutes ago. It's good of you to advertise this important information.

One would think that after a few hundred years of voting this would not be a problem. Maybe it's due to the fact that there is so much turnover in government, but it's a sad commentary when citizens have problems casting ballots.
