South Carolina Republican Governor Turned Away From Polls
South Carolina Republican Governor Turned Away From Polls The Associated Press reports: "Even Gov. Mark Sanford needs the right ID to vote in South Carolina. One day after eye injuries interrupted his last day of campaigning, Sanford forgot his voter registration card and was turned away from the polls, returning 90 minutes later to cast his ballot.


"I hope my luck turns," Sanford said. "Yesterday, I had the eye issue. Today, I was absentminded and didn't have my voter registration card."


Poll workers at a Sullivans Island precinct turned the governor away when he didn't have his registration card and the driver's license he showed had a Columbia address. He returned later with a new card. http://www.abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory?id=2635123

both the undead Jean Schmidt and Chabot had problems. Well, Chabot had the same problem. Schmidt's scanner wouldn't work - maybe they require bodyheat to activate?
