Folks,
With all the fuzz about, well, recounts and everything, I was
wondering: I've always been told there are no civil records
in the USA. You can't go down to city hall and ask a list of
a city's inhabitants, or can you ? I'm into genealogy, that's
why I hear stuff like this - just in case you're wandering :)
How on Earth does an election work in the US ? Do you have to
register beforehand ? It's not like over here, AFAIK, where you
get a postcard with an invitation in the mail. Or is it ? I'm
just being curious here - not trying to make fun of the
situation or anything.
Cheers,
Sandor
