Randy, was the application for mountain time or east coast time?

I thought the form when I checked it was mountain time. It's now 8am east coast & I went to fill out the form, & got an error code. I would have set the alarm an hour earlier if I thought it was east coast time. I only decided in last couple of days to run, & was swamped w/ work & now start of SMD2, and actually was thinking of my answers for a couple of the questions. Realize it's my fault for cutting it close to the wire, but did think I still had a few hours.

So if it's mountain time, I'd still like to get my application in. If it's east coast time, then guess I won't be running this year & will wait until next year.

Let me know. Thx. Cheers.

BTW - this is the message I get, whether I try Randy's link or Pat89339's link:

It was Mountain time and based upon your note, I went and checked it myself and now I'm a candidate (!). All seemed to work perfect and no one else has reported any problems as of yet. So we may have to do a manual update, and just substitute you for me.

Sorry for any inconvenience.

Yeah what he said! Although in my case it's elected vs re-elected. I'm currently at JFK w/ a LOT of FTers in the midst of SMD2. Might not post again for a few days or be able to answer questions if they get posted for a few days.

Sat down in a chair here - and Randy was sitting next to me!

Cheers.

I thought about pointing it out but didn't want to upset our "unexpected" candidate...

Because of SMD2, the tech team probably hasn't found time to perform a manual update of Talk The Vote. Randy is still officially a TB candidate.
