It would've been my first vote, too!!

Dear New York State,

You know I love you. But actually telling me that I am indeed registered to vote like you said you would over two weeks ago so I could've gotten an absentee ballot and voted in my first election as an adult would have been appreciated. Instead of, you know, not doing that. Something to remember for the future, mmkay?

Thanks,
Arthoniel

That being said, to all of the other USA-ers on my flist over the age of 18... DON'T FOLLOW MY UNINTENTIONAL EXAMPLE! GO VOTE!! IT'S OUR VOICE IN THE DEMOCRATIC PROCESS AND YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW PISSED I AM THAT I CAN'T DO THAT NOW. SO GO VOTE!! IT'S IMPORTANT.
