Rep Power: 7 | | | Unfortunately you may never know if you've been purged.
Operations like ChoicePoint may not submit their full lists until just before the election.

Rep Power: 166 | | | According to you all I am perfectly safe, I registered as a Republican. Though I must admit I would prefer to be a democrat and get to vote 15 or more times once in a while.
