1. I used my CA license in NY this morning. |
|
But just to be safe, I would also bring a bill with your current address on it.

8. NO! Liscence used for ID only, not address verification. Most places ask your address.... |
|
I heard two poll workers discuss this very thing, and the precinct leader said that addresses on liscenses are the business of the Division of Motor Vehicles and none of their business.

this is your first time voting at that poll. But if you get a hassle, either call your local Dem headquarters, go and talk to the Democratic poll workers (hopefully there are some folks handing out lit and sample ballots), or call
1-866-OURVOTE - 1-866-687-8683
or Obama - 1-877-5-PA-OBAMA (1-877-572-6226) - sorry, this is for PA but just in case some PA voter needs it.
