I think we can make our own definitions just like they do.

I self identify as a New Yorker. If you disagree you are racist or something.


From the NYC voter registration site:

"Be a New York City resident for at least 30 days.

Not claim the right to vote elsewhere (outside the City of New York)."


Proof of residency from the NYS registration site:

"Acceptable forms of ID include:

A valid photo ID
A current utility bill
A bank statement
A government check
Some other government documentation that shows your name and address"

Looks like it already happened.

Says that they can't vote in elections outside of NYC though.


I self identify as a New Yorker. Not sure how not liking to live in cities is racist.

' Say it ain't so ! '
Used to express one's disbelief, disappointment, or grief upon learning some unfortunate truth about someone or something.
A: " You do realize that all the clothes in this store are made by children in sweatshops in third-world countries, right ? "
B: " Say it ain't so! But they offer such good prices, how are we supposed to resist that ? "
!
A: " I just heard that the actor you like was arrested for drug trafficking. "
B: " No, say it ain't so! I always looked up to him as a role model, I can't believe he would be involved with crime like that! "
!
So !
It's true then, America is a Repunlick !

I got it! We all claim to live at TDA's house. We take turns paying his utility bills. That way we have utility bills as "proof" of residence. Opening a bank account is easy, too. Just have the statements sent to TDA's home address. He can forward them to wherever your "vacation" out-of-NY address is.

I'm sure he'd be happy to engage in such shenanigans for free utilities.

In NYC, the homeless may register to vote, so it should be no problem for the rest of us.

Problem. TDA doesn't live in NYC, he lives on Lonnngisland.

Good idea though.

Willie, I'll have to check on that. It wouldn't surprise me.
