I was at the DMV (on Decauter) this morning to officially get my Nevada Drivers license, and register to vote, while I was on line a man dressed 'semi officially' came up to me and ask me If I am registered to Vote, I said it was one of the things I was here to do today. He said "I have a poll question to ask" I said "Sure" he asked "If the election was today, would I vote for Obama, or Romney" I replied "Obama"
He thanked me, and pulled out a form, and told me to fill it out and "drop it inside"

While I was getting my new license, one of the check boxes was "register to vote"
When we got to that part of the business, I told the DMV rep that I had already filled out the 'form'
she looked at the form, and said it is not the proper form, and would be ignored, and gave me the correct form to fill out... Now my question is, If I answered "Romney" WHAT FORM WOULD I HAVE RECEIVED?

That form was probably laced with a drug that causes you to suddenly become a conservative. Da*m Republicans.

Default Interrrrrrresting......

Was the man still there after you filled out the correct form?
I would have approached him.
Wonder what he would have said.
They really oughta make it so there is no outside influence when your declaring your party.
Especially at that stage where your actually standing on line to register to vote.

They have been there awhile. There were some ladies asking who I was voting for and handing out democratic party flyers when I went. Guess they just switch out.
