We must be vigilant everywhere.
Another reminder to stay alert from Daily KOS:

Yesterday a friend voted early at a polling location in Austin. She voted straight Democratic. When she did the final check, lo and behold every vote was for the Democratic candidates except that it showed that she had voted for Bush/Cheney for president/vice pres.

She immediately got a poll official. On her vote, it was corrected.

She called the Travis County Democratic headquarters. They took all her information. They told her that she wasn't the first to report a similar incident and that they are looking into it.

So, check before you leave the polling booth, and if anything is wrong, get it corrected immediately.

Report any irregularities to your local Democratic headquarters.

3. Great reminder -- don't assume your vote is registering correctly
That is truly horrifying. And it should be publicized far and wide.

Also, anyone who is newly registered should be checking RIGHT NOW to ensure he/she will be able to vote on November 2.
