Donald Trump may now be warning of a “rigged” election, where a voter can cast a ballot “like 10 times,” but back in 2004, the real estate magnate struggled to vote even once, according to a video segment filmed with Access Hollywood.
In the video, Trump takes Access Hollywood’s Billy Bush with him to a New York polling place, only to find that his name is not on the voter rolls. They travel to two other polling places and face the same issue. Trump eventually fills out a provisional ballot from his limo, but declines to tell Bush who he voted for.
Throughout the segment, Trump’s frustration at the obstacles he is facing is evident. “Do me a favor and double check, double check,” Trump tells the workers at the first polling place, who tell him to go to another polling location on 5th Avenue.
“I like that location better,” Trump said. “It’s a richer location.”
The second polling location Trump goes to also does not have his name on its rolls, nor his name on the rolls at the third. So Trump says he will just fill out an absentee ballot.
“You didn’t do right by me, man, you didn’t do right by me,” Trump scolds someone with him, who Trump later calls a “scumbag.”
It wasn’t immediately apparent from the video why Trump’s name was not on the rolls in those polling places.

Sounds like his accountants forgot to tell him where his primary residence was.

SIGH
You have to admit rubbing shoulders with the poors kinda sucks.
That’s what Ivanka is for, except she didn’t know either.
