After getting reamed by Tim Robbins over that whole polling place snafu, the NYC Board of Elections wants Testy Tim to turn that frown upside down -- and do a PSA for 'em!
Officials tell TMZ they're inviting TR to "join" them to produce "service announcements" about voter participation. Somehow, given that Tim called the head of the org a "corrupt scumbag," it might take a lil' arm-twisting.
No word from Tim yet on whether he'll bite.
Not surprisingly, the BOE phrased their offer slightly more diplomatically than Robbins' screed.
"The Board of Elections in the City of New York (NYC BOE) takes special pride in the conduct of the November 4, 2008 election. In our city of 8 million people with 4.6 million registered voters, 2.6 million registered voters went to the polls on Election Day.
The NYC BOE is an administrative agency charged with the responsibility for conducting elections according to the law; a law that goes to great lengths to ensure ballot security and deter election fraud. We recognize the need for all voters to be informed of all electoral procedural requirements.
We also recognize and applaud that passion of Mr. Robbins exhibited with regard to his Election Day experience. Therefore, to harness the passion of Mr. Robbins, and to further the purpose of the NYC BOE, we hereby extend our invitation Mr. Robbins to join the NYC BOE to produce voter participation service announcements."

Apparently Tim Robbins is perfect. Has to be. Anyone who's ever made a mistake wouldn't carry on the way he is over this thing. Get over it already, buddy. Don't compound the mistake by being any more of a jerk than you usually are.
Take the gig, Tim.....with your declining career, it could be a nice addition to your paltry current resume. Just make sure you verify the address of where the filming will take place...wouldn't want to go to the wrong location...again!!
Tim, Tim, Tim...stop being an ASS. Admit you made a mistake. Grow up, be man..do the PSA and move on. Next time go to the right place to vote and you won't have a problem.
He is such an ass. I'm so tired of all these liberal elitists accusing people of disenfranchising voters and trying to blame everything on the Republicans.

Hey Tim, let me explain to you how this works: you see, taxpayers finance Board of Elections , and then Board of Elections goes out... and the taxpayers sit there in their... in their taxpayers buildings, and... and, and see, they're all taxpayer-y... and they go to the correct polling place and elect candidates.
