Rock the Vote Rocked by Incompetence
Hope you didn't register to vote using one of the forms provided by Rock the Vote: Every single one of the 173,000 New York State voter applications downloaded from the group's site was printed with the wrong address, which means thousands of newly-registered voters can expect to be turned away at the polls if the mess isn't sorted out before then. But if the mix-up is fixed before November 4th, you'll have Anne Hathaway to thank for your constitutional right: When she recorded an ad for the group a couple of weeks ago, organizers realized she hadn't registered to vote either, since her voter registration forms got lost, too.
