Hi, I'm a journalist with the American News Project in DC. I'm in Philly, where I've been covering voting issues for the past few weeks. Today, voting expert Steven Rosenfeld (of Alternet) and I visited the polls and found something quite bizarre.
Registered voters found their names missing from local poll books. And, even though they were confirmed to be centrally registered, they were still forced to vote with provisional ballots, which won't be counted until later in the week. So, if the results are close in Pennsylvania, then it could actually make a difference..
A strange tale of Democratic election officials (led by Marge Tartaglione) continuing to eat their own..
