Title: Voted while wearing a skirt

I was sure to get my name, marker, Id and registration all switched before this election. So long as I femme up my appearance a bit I pass, so as far as the poll worker was concerned I was just another woman voting. Anyway, if you're American VOTE!

Making a difference!

I'd like to vote, but I'm concerned my inconsistent identification might make voting complicated. Is that an issue?

My second time voting en femme. I think I was wearing leggings when I dropped off my ballot with the drive up polling station.
This was the first time my vote counted tho.  Two years ago my vote got thrown out.
If you had a name change be sure to re-register under your new name before you vote.
Even if they mail you a ballot with your old name on it. Re-register.

It depends on what state you live in. Some are very strict with ids, others don't even require it. Try googling how to vote in your state.

That is very nice to hear last year well last voting time when I voted I was wearing a pair of skinny jeans a tight t-shirt push-up bra and makeup and I got ma'amd And that was actually my first time ever voting unfortunately I didn't make a wise choice but it happens but I think where I live even though you wouldn't think it people are a lot more tolerant towards transgenders I live and Country town but it's like 15 minutes away from the city the big city so their understanding but they're not overpopulated

I'm registering at the polls today. Going in male mode cause that what matches my I'd. I have the honor of being able vote for a fellow trans person. So I'm a bit excited

Might that be Vermont? You don't have to answer.

It's important enough, I would urge you to try.

Nope, the upside down Vermont.
Just got back from the polls. It was painless even with an expired ID.

I walked up to the Democrats just outside the polling place and one of the politicians offered his hand, so we shook hands.  And I wished him good luck.

Congratulations! That must have felt nice.  :)

I voted early at my school, but they made me use my old name (I had updated my drivers license months ago, but my registration hadn't been updated since two years ago. When I found out it was using my old name it was too late to change it  >:( ). It was kind of embarrassing, but I don't pass that well anyways, so it's not like anyone there batted an eye /sigh
