I was confused by something I heard yesterday.

My mother-in-law was telling me that where she lives in one of those "active retirement communities", somehow ONLY the Republican party provided a place at the clubhouse to vote. If you were a Democrat, you had to go somewhere else.

Does this mean that each party is responsible for providing its own site?? I thought precincts were run by the local govt. FOr instance when I voted, they asked me if I wanted the REp or Dem ballot. If you were a Dem and went to RObson Ranch's clubhouse, you couldn't vote. Only Rep.

So I wondered how they could make something more accessible for one party over another legally. And if it wasn't an official precinct, then how the heck could that be a legal vote?
