My daughter registered for the first time AND on time. She picked her party affiliation (I saw her form), and it came back NPA??? WITH a letter stating she can not vote in the Presidential preference primary? Not happy with this… but nothing can be done about it… until the voting comes out again. We HAVE to pay attention to HOW our voting system is managed… changes need to happen soon. Hopefully, our current leader will clean it up.

I haven’t been asked for my voter’s registration care in 7 or 8 years. It is not a picture ID.

@ Ann … may I add to your note that several people I talked to went in to the precinct to vote only to come out saying, “I CAN”T VOTE” Yep they were NPA / No Party Affiliation / Independent No Party.
Some were beyond frustrated and a bit angered by that situation.
When asked if they’d been informed about Fla being a Closed Election and what that meant they usually replied they did not remember.
One person said she’d told the SOE office she is Republican yet had NPA on her card.
Folks just have to learn to check things and ask questions…most government employees are very courteous and highly trained…however. we gotta look out for ourselves too.

A lot of people did not take their voter’s registration card with them… Did not know their precinct….. had no clue….. thought Early voting places where still open… how very sad….. just stating the facts….. READ PEOPLE….
