Today is the last day to register to vote in Florida for the primaries. I received a letter today

from the supervisor of elections. It stated during the process of verifying petitions , we found out that your name has changed. They also sent me an application to register to vote. I have not changed my name or any other information, I have been at this address over 20 years. I called them and spoke with someone that my information has not changed. She checked the computer and made a notation and said i was ok to vote. I hope this is correct and I do not have a problem when I go to vote. I had checked a couple of weeks ago to make sure I was still registered and everything was fine then. My mother received her ballot in the mail to vote already. I have never had a problem with my registration before. So if you are in Florida , You should check your registration. I am in Tampa.

Her mail was forwarded to me and I got something about her voter registration from Volusia County Florida a couple of months ago. Wrote on the form that she was deceased and mailed it back. Saturday I got an absentee ballot for her!
Guess they really wanted somebody in Arkansas to vote in the primary.
