The New York Times' City Room blog reports that Amber Lee Ettinger, star of the hit YouTube music video "I Got a Crush on Obama," didn't vote for the Illinois senator on Tuesday.
According to the paper's Jennifer 8. Lee:
On Tuesday night, City Room ran into Ms. Ettinger at an election-watching party in Greenwich Village and asked how things went at the polls. “I didn’t get a chance to vote today because I’m not registered to vote in New York,” she said. So where is Obama Girl registered to vote? “New Jersey.” Um, but didn’t New Jersey also hold a primary? True. The problem, she explained, was that she was sick in New York City and was unable to get back across the Hudson River to the polls in Jersey City.
