12. Voting should not be this difficult! We are able to transfer millions of dollars in minutes ...

for millionaires and billionaires, but we make most of the "common folk" jump through three hoops to have a say.

Today I spoke with a nurse in Pa. her shift as a nurse on Tuesday happens to be 7-7:30 so she doubts she will have time. Last week a spoke with a NY transit employee, we spoke for almost 15 minutes (my longest call ever) he had bought a home north of the city in 2005. We know 2005 was at the height of the housing bubble, between work and a doctor's appointment he doubted he would have time to vote.

The Dems, if they truly were interested in all votes, should be doing more to make people aware of the deadlines in each state. Still it should not be this hard!!!
