My Hoosier Blue-Collar Republican Relative

The Unexpected Democrat

My sister's father-in-law is a born and bred Kentucky native who has lived and worked in Fayette County
for decades.  He retired from Visteon-- had worked at the plant for decades as well.  He's a dyed-in the
wool Republican, having even served as a Republican County Commissioner in the late 1980s.  I know he's
what one might even call him a quintessential redneck, but I really like him.  

Indiana: Tippecanoe County Sample

I may be a bit biased, but I think Tippecanoe County has it all over the rest of the state in terms of elections.  We went to the touch-screen system as of 2002, way before the mandate was passed.  

INDIANA - 1000s of New Voters

Mon Apr 07, 2008 at 07:02:59 PM PDT

While the final numbers are not in from the Election headquarters, it is clear already that the workers in Tippecanoe County have collected 1000s of NEW or changed registrations!

NOW our task is to make sure that those Purdue student voters are aware of how to vote this round and when. Pass this along..

STEPS:

  1. To Vote in Indiana -- bring your state approved photo ID (Drivers License or ID) or a US Passport with an expiration date. Purdue ID does not work. (IF you need a photo ID -- got to the BMV and get one for $10.
  1. If your IN Drivers License does not have your current address you must ALSO bring a copy of a bank statement, utility bill, government document, paycheck -- with your name and current address. Official insitutional documents are needed, not random mail.
  1. VOTE -- in Stewart Center on April 17-18th -- even before PA!! (And then sit back and study for those finals!)
