the registrar again tomorrow and get the name of the person you are speaking with….then explain the situation and ask them what you need to do. Tell them you are writing down what they are telling you so you can do exactly what they are advising. Then let us know what steps you are advised to take. We should be able to figure this out so that you don’t have to venture out to re-cast your vote in person. It’s a pain, but it’s worth the effort. You really should have heard something by now, so it’s best we figure it out now. We cannot allow you to be “shit out of luck.”
Worse case, if possible, could you vote in person?
