You're so doubtful of your candidate's chances that you're outright cheating?

And of course, Bush and co. will deny all knowledge. Well, they might not know about this, honestly. It's just so fucking wrong.

OK, I don't know how it works outside my county, but as a voter, here are some of your rights:
You have the right to find out if you were registered; voter registration records are public. Check and make sure before your precinct's registration deadline passes, if you're not sure.

You have the right to case a provisional ballot, even if your name is not on the voter registrar.

You have the right to follow-up on your provisional ballot and find out if your vote was counted.

Those two are nationwide. The following is for my county, but most will probably have similar laws.

If you kept your voter registration stub/receipt/card, you can then SUE the county (it's a small suit) to have your vote counted. In my county, the elections supervisor encourages people to do this; she loves it because even though you might have the hassle and fight a little to get your vote counted, it will be counted-- the elections dept. automatically loses the suit if you have your reg. card or receipt.
