“Dear PoPville,
what’s the deal with Dr Bronner’s soap and prop 83? Why the cherries for the logo?”
Election
“Dear PoPville,
Sharing my voting information situation. DCBOE is currently behind—taking about a month to process voter registration information, meaning that even if you submitted an application prior to their deadline, you may not be actively registered by Election Day. They told me to bring my ID and proof of address to vote on Election Day or visit their office prior to Election Day on 1015 Half Street SE. However, a lot of people will not receive ballots to drop off.”

Thanks to Tamar for sending. Still time to vote – polls close at 8pm!

“Marie Reed only has 3 electronic voting booths so the line is LONG.”
DC Board of Elections replied to us: “We are working to fix the situation at Marie Reed.”
Fortunately looks good everywhere else: (more…)
“Dear PoPville,
Here’s one for you…wondering if this has happened to anyone else. I went to vote in-person at one of the early voting centers. I’ve been registered to vote for years, voted in-person in the primary, and received a mail-in ballot for the general. I handed the election official my drivers license, and there was no record of me in the system. (more…)
“Dear PoPville,
I opened my DC mail-in ballot today. The only ballot in the envelope was for the DC delegate race? Is this correct? These are the entire contents. The back of the ballot is blank. (more…)
“Dear PoPville,
I’m assuming others have had this same issue, but I wanted to let readers know that if you haven’t received a mail-in-ballot (which DC automatically sends), then you need to call DC Board of Elections to request a new ballot. Electronic ballot requests ended on 10/15 and now you can only request a ballot to be sent to an address different from what’s on your voter registration.
DC BOE’s tracking system shows my ballot was mailed 21 days ago. (more…)
