what is the DMW (DMV=Dept of Motor Vehicles?) and why can't they transmit the registrations? Seems like they could do a secured courier (sp?) and take them directly over.Strawberry Plains DMW isn‘t transmitting voter registrations to the Knox Co Election’s Office. So anyone who registered there in past few months won’t be able to vote on Nov 5th even if they registered 30 days prior.
Typo. Meant DMV and apparently it’s been a known issue and I have no idea why it hasn’t been addressed or resolved. My daughter got her new DL there on 9/19 and registered to vote, but she was told she isn't registered due to issues in delivering the new registrations by the Staw Plains DMV. It’s ridiculous and likely affects numerous folks who registered at that location. She was told by a very rude elections official at UT campus today that “you can vote but it won’t be counted” and “you know they don’t bring over those registrations from Straw Plains”. Great way to treat new voters who registered >30 days prior but wont be given the privilege of voting due to govt malfeasance and ineptitude!what is the DMW (DMV=Dept of Motor Vehicles?) and why can't they transmit the registrations?
