This moronic scumbag Samuel J. Wurzelbacher "Joe the Plumber" had his AZ driver license suspended
http://www.eastvalleytribune.com/story/128323
Wurzelbacher, who lived in Mesa in 2000 and had an Arizona driver's license, had his driver's license suspended by the Arizona Department of Transportation Motor Vehicle Division on May 4, 2000, following a nonpayment of a court-imposed fine for civil traffic violations, according to court records.
...owes nearly $1,200 in back taxes, according to public records, still owes more than $700 to the Mesa court system.
Records show he was cited for failure to stop at a red light and for failure to provide proof of insurance on Feb. 9, 2000, in a black Dodge truck at the intersection of Dobson and Baseline roads in Mesa.
After failing to pay his original fine of $627.50 issued in March 2000, his license was suspended and the fine was handed over to a collection agency along with a 16 percent surcharge. The now-resident of Holland, Ohio, still owes $727.90 to the Mesa Municipal Court, according to court records.
Hopefully the collection agency will break both of his legs so he'll never be able to walk nor work ever again. This typical Republican scumbag deserves it.
Last-Minute Voting Tips

"Certainly on the day before the election and the day of the election, callers will find a real person answering the telephone," said Mary Wilson, national president of the League of Women Voters.
"If you call and leave a message, our local leagues are great at getting back to people with the information they need."
Two other tips to making voter faster and more pleasant: Study and mark a sample ballot ahead of time. (If your city, county or state doesn't send you one, you may be able to find one online at your state's election site.) And, bring a book, book on tape, or digital music player with you to help pass the time as you wait in line to vote, said Wilson.
"This is absolutely wonderful that we'll have this huge turnout," she said. "Let's take advantage of it, let's enjoy it, and be as patient as we possibly can with the process because election officials are doing the very best that they can to accommodate an unusually large turnout."
IDs required in half of states
Regarding IDs, half of the states in the country now require voters to show some form of identification, whether photo or non-photo, according to electionline.org. So, it might be best to play it safe rather than sorry and come prepared.
Jennie Bowser, of the National Conference of State Legislatures, said if you don't have Internet access, "and you just don't know how to go about tracking down what the specific requirements in your state are, your best bet is to take with you to the polls a government-issued photo ID."
It can be "a driver's license, a state ID card, a passport, a military ID — something like that issued by the state or federal government," she said. "You may get there and find you don't need it. But if you've got it and you do need it, you won't end up voting a provisional ballot."
Provisional ballots
Put simply, a regular ballot is what you want to cast. A provisional ballot is the next best thing, but not ideal because of the complications it brings with it.
Voters who show up at the wrong precinct, for example, or without the correct identification, or whose names don't appear in the poll books, may wind up being told they cannot cast a regular ballot, but that they can vote a provisional ballot.
A provisional ballot is not actually counted until election officials determine that the voter who cast it is eligible to vote.
That's a process that can take days, sometimes longer. Provisional voting also is handled differently in each state, and in some cases, differently by counties within the same state. That means there is no guarantee a provisional ballot will wind up being counted.
