I was "purged" just before the 2016 primaries

The letter stated I was being removed because I was inactive, even though I have voted every time the polls were open in Tulsa Co. OK for the last 40 years. I have moved 3xs and each time, I went in person to the county election board to change my address. The letter I received had no return address. Most people would have thrown it in the trash.
Go, IN PERSON to your election board and check your eligibility, at the very least, before the cutoff date to register before each and every presidential primary. They will do anything to take away your vote, don't let them.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
