Voter Registration New York State 2015-2024 Form

The question is intimately connected to a different but related question: should the state require universal ID cards for its citizens. Lots of countries do and typically those countries also expect citizens to show their ID when they vote. However, mandatory ID cards have been regarded with distrust in the English speaking countries. Neither the UK, Australia nor the USA have mandatory ID cards and those countries don’t require formal ID as such to vote (except now in some US states).The sate requiring a formal ID to vote is a step down the path to mandatory ID.On to the pragmatic question. What problem are voter ID laws trying to solve? The stated problem is voter fraud. Voter fraud does occur in the US but voter ID only deals with a specific kind of voter fraud: in-person voter fraud. It is hard to get exact numbers but actual confirmed cases of in-person voter fraud are very rare. Confirmed voter fraud is more common (but still relatively rare) with absentee ballots and event then usually on local elections. More common is electoral registration fraud - but in this case it isn’t people voting but people employed to help register people using fake names as a financial con. Media hype about dead people voting is typically examples of poor electoral records rather than electoral fraud.So voter ID laws will not prevent many (if any) cases of voter fraud. However, they can add barriers to people who want to vote. How steep that barrier is depends on the voter ID law itself. If the ID is easy to obtain and low-cost or free then it isn’t going to be much of a barrier to people voting. Not all voter ID laws are of that kind which is why some have fallen foul of constitutional objections.The USA has had a long sad history of attempting to place obstacles in the way of people voting. Those obstacles have been aimed at poor people in general in some cases but more often at black Americans in particular. The effort put into voter ID laws by politicians who have a vested interest in discouraging black people from voting, compared against the tiny number of actual cases of in-person voter fraud speaks for itself.

Every state is a little different, but in many states if you want to register for a party to vote in their primary you must fill out a voter registration form. In New York State for example:How do I change my political party or enroll in a party for the first time?If you are a registered voter who wishes to join a political party for the first time or change your political party membership, you must complete and submit a new voter registration form. Your change of enrollment must be received no later than 25 days prior to the general election before the primary in which you wish to vote (generally that means in October of the previous year). (Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ))In Minnesota there is no party registration so you simple chose what party you wish to vote for when you show up at a primary or caucus.So, depending on your state it may be simple as in MN or confusing as in NY.

One of my job function is to support some aspects of a DMV, so I'll give you some perspectives and thoughts:1.  DMV's have an atrocious problem with uneven demand.  EVERYBODY shows up at the DMV in about 3 days at the end of the month, and the first two or three days of it.  Go to a DMV in the middle of the month, and you will likely find far shorter lines.  But unlike many private companies, DMV's can't easily scale staffing up and down.  Tough background checks and often old and crappy systems make for long training and onboarding cycles, making temps untenable, and many other functions of government are also month end heavy, making it hard to rotate employees in.2.  NOBODY EVER WANTS TO GO TO THE DMV.  Seriously.  You will never have a customer who's happy to be there.  It's a grating job that wears people down and makes them hate life.  But you have to be there, and so do DMV employees..  Nobody is going to be chipper after all that.  3.  It's a shitty job, usually with modest pay, yet surprisingly complex procedures, software, controls, and policy that basically sucks for employees and customers.  When policy is written or passed by the legislature, nobody cares what impact it will have on the front line at the DMV.  Add 20 minutes to the wait?  Make employees enter data in five separate systems?  Meh, not their problem.  Nobody votes an elected official out of office because the DMV sucks.  (If they did, it would not suck anymore).   Further, The best way to be fired at the DMV is to break policy.  Which is a good way to make damn sure that nobody goes above and beyond to help a customer a little extra.  Being slow won't get you fired, but breaking policy will.4.  Telephone and internet services are afterthoughts constrained by hidebound legal requirements that nobody has bothered to update since 1946, and which make it damn near impossible to deliver quality service to people.  (Some states are much better than others here).5.  DMV's are often run by people whose primary job isn't to run the DMV.  County assessors, some random state agency, whatever...  They have bigger fish to fry and more pressing concerns.  The DMV is simply neglected.At the end of the day, the DMV isn't much worse than customer service at any pseudo-monopoly.  And with no motivation to improve, it won't.

What form do I fill out to divorce myself from the government completely? I have already canceled my voter registration. What is the next step?“The government”?First off, the answer may vary depending on which government you are wanting to separate from. If you’re talking about the U.S. government, well, you’re going to find it’s very difficult.The closest you will be able to come to this will be to renounce your citizenship abroad. You can see the steps for doing that at Renunciation of U.S. Nationality Abroad .If you follow those steps, you will no longer be a U.S. citizen. But you should note, as that article says, doing so will not necessarily relieve you of certain obligations you had because you were a citizen.Add to it that if you do this, you will of necessity be subject to the laws of some other country, just by your very presence in that country.

In Oregon, we vote 100% by mail, and by law our ballots cannot be forwarded. The state needs to confirm that we are voting in the proper district and precinct, so the ballot will not be forwarded, and the citizen will not be allowed to vote again until they have re-registered at their new address.

We need to distinguish between the two casesYour name is on the voters list but you have not received your voters ID.Your name is not on the voters list.Most cases are of type 1. your name might be on the voters list but no one cared to dispatch your voter ID or inform you about it.Check with the office where you had submitted your application. If your name is on the list they should have your voter ID card. If they do not have your voter id card ask for your EPIC number and the polling booth assigned to you.

The current status of your application, 2. the BEO assigned to your application, 3. the expected date by which the BEO will process it.4.
