I just got this in the mail, so I thought I would share it will all:

Protecting Your Right To Vote:

Next Tuesday, November 4th, Americans will go to the polls to elect our next president. On that day, we'll be here to make sure that your vote counts.

From 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. EST, we'll have lawyers staffing our hotline to respond to callers who experience discrimination on the basis of gender identity or expression at the polls.

If you experience discrimination at your polling place, call our hotline at

(646) 862-9396.

Exercise your right to vote on November 4th. We'll be here to make sure your vote counts.

Good info, Allanah - particularly so for this election. Here's some more:

At the polling station, should you find yourself one of the 2.7 million purged, or your ID rejected, then do your best to resist a "provisional" ballot--one third of which are not counted. Return with proper ID, or call 1-800-OUR VOTE for legal assistance. And never just walk away discouraged. That's just what they want you to do. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/robert-f-kennedy-jr-and-greg-palast/drinking-the-acorn-koolai_b_138390.html
