  1. That’s a hoot! When I last renewed my license in PA the same thing happened to me. I switched from non-partisan (independent in this state) to other. Boy did I make a statement!

  2. Hey, at least some thing got done.

    Having been so disenchanted with third parties
    [Peace & Freedom and Deform Party/ Reform Party]
    I now insist that political organization[s] mail
    off my postage prepaid registration form.

    Time after time they just do not get around to it!

    Their loss, and my gain (as they ‘flunk’ the test!)
