Brownback & the Teabaggers have totally fucked Kansas
If you were not aware of it before, the experience of Fay Paxton had trying to change her drivers license and register to vote should cement the deal. She does not say why she moved to Kansas but having done so, she offers up this cautionary tale.
Some months ago, I moved to Kansas. As is required, I went to the Department of Motor Vehicles to exchange my driver’s license for a Kansas license, to make record of my new address and to register to vote. In order to make certain I would cover every possibility, I simply grabbed what I call “my identity packet” which contains the following:Though she finally succeeded, she points out problems and pitfalls that many will face.
My birth certificate
My social security card and my last social security statement that projects my benefits
A passport
Current 1099’s
My current tax return
My insurance policy
My Dependent Care Packet (a notarized, exhaustive packet issued by the military to anyone who will be responsible for the care of military children in the event of disability or death of a soldier)
I have credit cards and debit cards
A current driver’s license and automobile registration
A picture ID issued by the United States Armed Forces
To verify my new address I took mail I had received, since my relocation from:
The utility company
The Telephone company
My rental lease
A registered letter from the Internal Revenue Service
I COULD NOT REGISTER TO VOTE!
