North carolina entries in virginia feed

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The virginia feed includes 12 segments that are located in north carolina
entries 

[dannyb@dhcp-172-31-57-70:~]> grep ">NC<" VASBE_vipFeedNov2010.xml
<state>NC</state>

This is throwing off our testing, which now believes we have segments for north 
carolina, when in fact the feed can't be fetched

I reached out to Bhavani. He's looking into it.

This issue just became a bit more complicated...

The street segments are located inside the VA border, however, since the mail 
is delivered by NC (or WV) they have NC or WV mailing addresses. Bhavani 
doesn't want polling places to be returned for these segments, but, even if we 
remove the street segments from the VA feed, wouldn't these addresses attempt 
to be run against the NC or WV data?

These are the registered addresses for those segments (I'm not sure if this 
helps at all):

1060 Hillbilly Hollow RD Westfield, NC 270538244
121 Virginia Line CIR EDEN, NC 27288
1451 Walnut HTS Bluefield, WV 247014330
16 Whispering Pines TRL WEST FIELD, NC 27053
2474 Puckett RD Westfield, NC 270538322
3218 Walters AVE Bluefield, WV 247012552
531 Ephesus Church RD Semora, NC 273439159
540 Bear Creek RD Stoneville, NC 270488625
77 Virginia Line CIR EDEN, NC 27288
865 Moxley Ridge RD Sparta, NC 286759179
93 Virginia Line CIR EDEN, NC 27288
930 R T Hester RD Roxboro, NC 27573
980 Dotman RD Milton, NC 27305

Any ideas?

Jared and I discussed. These people live in VA so they get VA addresses, which 
is what they had to register with (and have to use to register their car I'm 
sure, etc)...it's nice of the Board of Elections to use their NC mailing 
address to help with their poll locator tool, but that just doesn't fly when we 
have a national tool.

Jared will work with VA to change.

I asked Bhavani to change. Will update when the feed is posted.

I sed'd the feed, and uploaded to our site and changed the feed pointer.

We'll need to switch the feed back over to their feed once Bhavani regenerates 
the file. He'll send me an email when that happens.

OK...that was fast. New feed is back up and the odd street segments now all 
have VA as the state.
