RE: mom not on roles

["Paul Tiger" <paul.tiger@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Mom registered to vote a few months ago, after moving to CO in May. She even
got a card in the mail telling her where her precinct was - seven floors
down from her apartment. Everyone in the building knows her, and suffice to
say that is how she got a ballot (not provisional).

There was all sorts of phun when she tired to get a colorado ID. She's been
a citizen for 65 years, but our state laws prevented her from getting a CO
picture ID. They said that her immigration papers weren't correct. We gave
up because she was afraid that her SSI checks would stop coming.
Mark Udall's office was of zero help. She decided not to vote for him.

Isn't the whole planet getting sucked into the DC black hole?
