We need to start informing our ranks how Provisional Ballots work. You CANNOT be turned away like this woman is describing. You have rights. Know them.

"When there is uncertainty about a voter’s eligibility—the potential voter’s name is not on the voter rolls, a required identification document isn’t available or other issues—the election official is required to offer the voter a provisional ballot instead of a regular ballot."

The problem is that they won't even look at the provisional ballot unless the race is close. And since someone already voted on your behalf for a Democrat, it will never be seen.
