VOTING

[Tsyroc]

I hope that everyone who is a U.S. citizen and old enough to do so is planning on voting today. I've found it very easy to get discouraged by how things turn out but it's still worthwhile and important to vote.

Besides, if your state is like mine they pull people for jury duty off of their vehicle registration (because more people register their cars) and not their voter registration.

In my district only Jim Kolbe (R) being up for reelection is going to impact the rest of the coutry. We did have a ton state and local issues though. Lots of propositions, including another one on Medical Marijuana and 3 on Indian gaming.

[Mr Bean]

Hmm sure as hell I'll be voting, Here we get to pick between the Republican Collage Proffesor or the Democrate Sunday School Teacher
Oh or the Librarian... somthing, she never says much besides the fact the Districts are Jurymanded so that only a Republican or Democrate can Win(And yet she still runs, thats her ONLY issue she's running on BTW)
Hmmmm toughly!

At least I know who I'm voting for local Law-enforcment, We get to pick between a Dective or a Narc!(But the Narc is funny so I'm voting for him, He looks Great as a Hippy BTW he'd fit right into Woodstock and I have not even seen the other guys picuture yet)

[Tsyroc]

My Nightowl lifestyle allowed me to get to the polls right as they opened, 0600.

Other than the medical marijuana prop. we didn't have anything associated with law enforcement. The only thing that really sucks, but could turn out interesting, about the marijuana prop is that if it passes the cops could be responsible for distributing the medical pot to those who qualify. Doesn't that set up a nice Arizona Sheriffs/Police vs. DEA scenerio?

Early voting is where it's at, if it was available. I voted two weeks ago!

[TrailerParkJawa]

Im gonna go vote. I feel bad if I dont. Im just not sure I wanna wait till tonight or get it done now. I have some mid day appointments.

Im gonna have to hold my nose and vote for Davis. I want to fire him, but Simon is not a viable alternative for me.

Just finished voting myself. Voted Repub. for national office, Dem for local (most of the state leg. is Repub. so even though I'm more conservitive than anything else the Repubs have a super majority and they are LAZY so maybe if some opposition were in there some changes can be made), and voted out as many judges that they had listed, lets face it there is plenty of lawyers out there who can be judges. I voted against anything that would raise taxes and didn't vote for anyone who didn't have a person running against them.

I really wish Utah had a none of the above choise on the ballot.

I voted today. I voted for Shrubby's little brother, against that bitch Corrine, and in favor of a libertarian for our state legislature seat.

I also voted in favor of a state constitutional amendment making death penalty an exception to the cruel and unusual punishment protection, in favor of an amendment forcing the government to disclose probably economic effects for future amendments, and against an amendment to make it illegal to keep a pregnant pig tethered up or in a cage.

I'm an evil SOB.

[TrailerParkJawa]

and against an amendment to make it illegal to keep a pregnant pig tethered up or in a cage.

Wow, I thought only CA created stupid laws like that.

Berkeley has an issue on the ballet to make all business that serve coffee use only coffee that is certified as "shade grown" , "fair practice" , or "organic"

Im not sure if it needs to be all of the above or just one of the three.

[Mr Bean]

Any Canident who screams KAAAAAHHNNN and plays paint-ball on off weekends is good enough for my State Senate

I generally voted Republican, though abstained on the Agricultural Commisioner. There were a few Libertarians on the ballot but I didn't know much about their policies.

I abstained on all the judges and justices.

I voted against the smoking amendment (should be up to the businesses themselves IMHO), against class size limits an for the rest.

And yes, that fucking pig question shouldn't have been on the ballot!

WTF kind of state are you living in?
*Remembers 2000*
Never mind..

The Amendment in question was sponsered by the Humane Society. *Groan*

I voted to expel the whole lot of the judges and justices. And I voted in favor of the class size issue.

We used these touchscreen setups that wrote data to a smartcard in Pinellas County. Hopefully this will work better.

Last I heard several counties where having sever technical problems.

Those were clustered in the South Florida area, though.

i´m not going to vote. dont live there, dont know if i´m allowed to vote in state elections (you´re voting for secretary of state, right? i dont even know what that is), and i´m too lazy to go to the consulate.

Secretary of State is a cabinet-level position appointed by the President.

The elections vary depending on the state. Some are voting for governor, some are voting for representatives to their state legislature, 1/3rd are voting for Senators and all are voting for Congressmen in the House of Representatives. There are various state issues to vote on as well.

[haas mark]

80 things to vote for, and I know none of the issues. And you expect me to vote!? (Although, I did register, so you have to give me kudos for thet. )

[Knife]

And a state position in local goverments. Think Catherine Harris.

I expect all voters to at least learn the issues and go to the polls. (I abstained on quite a few of them).

I'd prefer that only those who care enough to do it without prompting voted.

Well, I would vote if I knew the issues, but I don't so, *sigh* I am not voting.

[Asst. Asst. Lt. Cmdr. Smi]

I don't think anyone's going to vote for the PA gubetorial election. Both candidates have been taking up too much commercial time throwing mud, and in the debates, Fisher was bobbing his head around like a bobble head, and Rendell looked slightly green.

Too bad I won't be able to vote until after the 2004 elections.

You could always go to your polling place, get your ballot, and turn it in blank as a protest.

Heh. A no vote. I could, but I'm too lazy.
