Voting Shenanigans in Florida

My daughter (registered Dem since 2008) went to vote in Kissimmee. She was with her boyfriend (they both registered together when they moved). Woman at desk tells her she "changed her party affiliation" in 2012. She did not. Women at desk said she could re-register but she could not vote. Her boyfriend's registration was on the up and up.

Waiting to hear back from her candidate's local HQ now.

It might have actually made all the difference.
