You know I can hardly read this kind of story anymore... I am drained, I have complained to Senators, Congressmen, my friends my enemies, the pole workers, my wife anyone who would listen! I have blogged and protested and put up signs and got all the stickers and buttons.... even participated in the lie that is voting and it wont fix by complaining about it... so what is left? What are they leaving for people like me as an avenue for change or correction? NOTHING! I am backed into a corner Hell even Ron Paul is now a lost cause and after reading his last letter sent to me by his campaign I can now see that he is only hanging around to make us feel better and he is really only running for his seat in Texas... so get some food and some extra rounds if you know what I mean... Good luck!

Thank you, Jeneen, for your brave stand in the face of such unbelievable arrogance and blatant refusal to allow you to vote and their refusal to be accountable for their actions that have compromised the election results. I'm certain that your experience is not unique. Each volunteer at each polling place should have been required to fill out a form as to what transpired at their particular location, in light of the problems that have been discovered at voting polls across the nation.It would be essential in fixing what has been terribly broken in our voting process. I praise you for your diligence and integrity. I heard you on Charles Goyette's radio show. You did a great job describing the situation.

I am also a poll worker. Usually the Inspector. This time I was Provisional Ballot clerk. I have been a poll worker for the last 3 Prez. elections & other elections, mid term ect.. I have not had these kinds of problems with my co-workers. I did experience the frustration of those who had to vote provisional ballots, especially this one. Some of the people are at fault & some of the mess is due to the system & failings of the election board in Prescott & probably other parts of the State. I don't think many of the Prescott people would put up with fraud, but we do have Touch Screens as an option & our paper ballots are counted by machine. We have a paper trail but are the paper ballots counted to confirm the correctness of the machine?

I think the Sate over condensed the polling places which caused a lot of problems for us, but not as bad as Jeneen's..

It seems a great idea would be to let whoever is qualified be allowed to vote for any parties candidates without being limited to one party. ALL the candidates from all the parties should be on ONE ballot.

I have not seen vote manipulation at any of the polling places I have worked. But as I said, we have machines. I am with Devvy Kidd (newswithviews.com) who advocates going back to paper ballots that are hand counted. Maybe I have watched Terminator to many times :-) but I don't trust the people who make the voting machines.

By the way, I wrote "Ron Paul.com Vote Freedom" on the back window of my car. I parked about 20 feet out side the 75 foot limit where people could read it as they came in.

I forgot some thing. To be an Inspector or a couple of the other positions you have to be a Repub or Dem. That is not right & is discriminatory. The Inspector & the Marshall must be of one or the other parties, 1 a D the other an R. I want to join the Constitution Party.

I am sick of the 'new' Repub. "party". But I am forced to be a Repub. or I can't be an Inspector. This needs to change!!! This would be a step toward breaking the strangle hold of the R & D machine. Also would be more fair to the other parties & give a bit more incentive to join a different party as the discrimination would be gone. In some elections other than R or D can't vote or have limits on choices.

Great first person account. There's a lot of people nationally that may be able to help you.
