VOTE!

[jmcc]

Well, someone had to make a topic about it. If you're of legal age go out and vote today. As an American it's your most sacred right so go exercise it.

edit: this isn't the proper forum to lavish oral attention on any candidate or issue's genitals, so do NOT f.uck up this thread with such things.

Vote or die Bitch!!!!!!!!! < from south park with p diddy

[Cornfedwb]

Already did.. 6:30AM when the polls opened. And I've spent the last 2 hours calling everyone I know getting them to the polls. Ohio is probably going to swing this election, and without naming any names, I'm making sure my candidate gets every vote I can get him.

I'm in WIsconsin, so we are a swig state too. It's crazy how many times each candidate has been here. This election could be as close as the last one.

just did an hour ago. i feel i did my part by handing out voter registration forms at shows we've thrown and mailing them for the people out of pocket. lets hope something changes with this election- it's imperative. either way it goes, the path to righteousness is important.

[Ikohn4ever]

already voted, those machines that I voted with seem to be older then my parents

Yea I was surprised that both Bush and Kerry were in town last night and this morning.. its odd to think that northeast Ohio could be deciding our next President.

Well, keep in mind that top of the line for this election are those Diebold piles of crap. You're no doubt better off with whatever you used.

Vote Ackbar!

[sblymnlcrymnl]

Vote Ackbar!

Oh I am. :wink:

[Doylerulez]

Vote Ackbar!
I know I would.

I'll be voting, but a coworker of mine refuses to because if you vote you'll get jury duty shortly after. I know I got stuck after the 2000 election.

[chosen1s]

Your sacred duty is to know and understand each candidate's position - and then to vote.

Hey, we're not running for Jesus here. Just voting will be sufficient for now. We'll work on voting smart next time.

[Othergods]

I did my part this morning at 7am. I am in FL.

Good luck with all THAT.

[xzafixz]

I think that the whole country should have the day off of work today, that or internet or mail voting, something that doesn't take 2 hours of the day to do, I know a lot of people that won't be able to vote because of work, kids, everything.

[chickenhawk]

The election has already been decided. The Redskins lost their last home game before election day, so...Kerry....will.....win.

[Tromack]

I absenteed that bitch up last week.

I have heard some people say "I would vote for anybody so long as it isn't ****** ". That's shameful. They could be voting for Hitler for all they know and their rationale is "Because he isn't ******".

When the founding fathers were all together fighting over how the Government would be set up, the following comment was made about Democracy - "Democracy doesn't ensure that the people get a good government, it ensures that the people get the govrnment they deserve."

Voting is indeed a sacred privelege - don't misuse it. If you are voting today, please put a smidgeon of effort into finding out where the candidates stand on the issues. There are plenty of huge arguments here in the CAG forums that will pretty much iron those positions out for you so at the very least you know who you are voting for.

that's mad ill, kid. :wink:

Vote Or Die, Vote Or Die!

[doubledown]

I wish we would get the day off too. I mean, I probably won't be able to vote until like 5:30 or later tonight....hopefully not many people in my town are there by then...I guess I'll see.

[Steve Dave]

vote today

Unless you don't know what you are voting for.

Don't just vote because people say vote.

[maccabee72]

I early voted last week, and I agree, if you're qualified to vote, it's your right and duty as an American. Get out there and let your voice be heard......

[Quackzilla]

Wow, I guess nobody needs to vote now.

[moiety]

I'm at college, and I gotta work at 1 :( , so I'll be driving home afterwards to vote at my elementary school. Sucks I gotta wait all day though. I'm sure there'll be a lot of people, as everyone will be out of work by then. But I'm excited! :D

[Nirvanaguy777]

im not voting, i cant decide

[sblymnlcrymnl]

im not voting, i cant decide

I guess it's better not to vote than to regret your decision later.

[WhipSmartBanky]

They already do. It's called absentee ballot. You can call, write, or go online and request your ballot be sent to you, then you mail it back, postage prepaid. There's no excuse not to.

[vherub]

Agreed, id rather see a lower vote turnout with less ignorant voters than to know millions of people are voting just because some clown told them to- thats not america for me

[Draccius]

Vote Ackbar!
I know I would.

I'll be voting, but a coworker of mine refuses to because if you vote you'll get jury duty shortly after. I know I got stuck after the 2000 election.

Actually, most states pull jury lists from driver's licenses these days for that very thought.

[zewone]

I have a dentist appointment, I'm going to go vote after that.

[6669]

I CANT!

[jmcc]

Just got done. 802 out of 5300 or so.

[Jaxcomet]

vote today

Unless you don't know what you are voting for.

Don't just vote because people say vote.


I agree. Unless you follow the race enough to know the candidates fairly well you're just blindly guessing. Many people don't follow politics at all but they should still vote?

It's like your girlfriend watching a football game and cheering for the team with the prettier uniforms........

[x0thedeadzone0x]

I CANT!

Me either. :(

[jmcc]

I CANT!

Me either. :(

Did women get the vote taken away again?

edit: spelling.

Good to be In DC!

[wubb]

I think if they made election day a holiday you'd just have people go out of town with their day off and not bother to vote. Maybe if they made it a Wednesday, but with it being Tuesday most people would just make it a 4 day weekend.

[Trakan]

I completely agree with you, but if they made it a Wednesday, then people would just find a way to abuse that also.

[dtcarson]

Interesting.
I've voted in every election, primary, general, dinky 2-prop ballots, since I've turned 18 and have never had jury duty.
I'll be going later, I'm home with my sick boy and don't want to have him wait in that long line with me when he's not feeling well..
I would add an addendum to the topic title:
Educate yourself, Don't Believe the Hype, Read Between the Lines, *then* vote. THere's plenty of BS from all sides to sift through, I'd respect a voter who votes opposite from me, but has valid logical thought out and true reasons to do so, more so than a blindly allegiant voter for any other side.

[SunnyRT]

I'm done trying to get other people to vote. They end up voting Nader or some other wack job.

All the props are nuts and have to be intimidating for a new voter. Throw "when in doubt vote no" out the window now too since they're starting to do the no means yes crap. *pulls hair out*

[Rig]

I am away at college, so I sent out my absentee ballot a while ago.

[The Shiznit]

I am voting after work and I get jury duty every 13 months.

[CaseyRyback]

everyone who could vote in my family voted.

[sblymnlcrymnl]

I'm about to go vote, just got home from school. I live in Kansas though, so it doesn't really matter as far as the presidential race goes.

[wubb]

Props to anyone that actually took the time to do an absentee ballot if they wouldn't be able to vote today.

Yeah, I know at least here (IIRC) county jury duty is tied to your Driver's License/Identification, and Federal jury duty is tied to voter registration. Whether you go to the polls or not or not doesn't make a difference...if you're registered to vote, you're in the Federal jury pool.

Anyway, I don't know why people get so afraid of or upset about jury duty. The process is fascinating and even a little bit exciting. Not to mention, once you go through the process, even if you're not selected, you don't have to worry about being called again for a pretty lengthy period of time.

[FriskyTanuki]

Props to anyone that actually took the time to do an absentee ballot if they wouldn't be able to vote today.

I probably would have if I'd have gotten the chance, I found out that I should gotten something in the mail after registering for the election. I didn't get a damn thing, but I'm heading out to vote soon.

[WhipSmartBanky]

Props to anyone that actually took the time to do an absentee ballot if they wouldn't be able to vote today.

Yep. It's actually easier and more convenient, but you don't get the cool little "I Voted!" sticker. :(

[oxidative]

I hope mine counted. I went this morning at 7am after work. My county of Napa is using electronic voting this year. Well, it wasn't working so they had to hand out paper ballots (which I'm sure they ran out of soon after I left) and had no secure box to place them in, at one point one of the volunteer women handed somebody an already voted on ballot thinking it was a fresh one.....

I kept trying to call the elections office but, of course, their number was busy. The stub from my ballot says I can call in 21 days to check the status of my ballot. What the f*ck is that?! 21 days might as well be 5,000 years from election day.

Grrrrrrr

[Storamin]

I voted! I was in downtown Pittsburgh and I didn't even have to wait more than 20 minutes!

You do if you drop it off at a voter precinct on the day of elections. But, if you had my experience then you are taking your chances....

[Jaxcomet]

I wonder how many on this forum would have not found time to vote had Halo's release day been the 2nd instead of the 9th? :D :D

[sblymnlcrymnl]

I would, I probably won't recieve my copy 'til the 10th :lol:

[Admiral Ackbar]

Accordin g to ABCNews in some precincts of Ohio there are five hour long voting lines at the close of the pools. That's why some polls have been left open.

[FriskyTanuki]

Good thing I'm not in Ohio anymore. Anybody have the arrow ballots? There were the both ends of an arrow after the candidates name and you connected the one you wanted to vote for. Was I supposed to get something in the mail when I registered? When I asked a USPS worker at the counter, she asked me if I got something in the mail, which I didn't.

[Admiral Ackbar]

Looks like Florida went Bush, Pennsylvania went Kerry. Ohio is nearly a dead heat with only 40% of the vores tallied.

[Kaijufan]

I voted!

[Admiral Ackbar]

Looking bad for Kerry at the moment... He's over a hundred thousand behind in Ohio and he needs that to wind. Still, 40% of the precincts still need to report.

[zionoverfire]

Yep, well how about a Civil war! :twisted:

[evilpenguin9000]

I voted this afternoon, not that it matters. Va always goes Republican and being much more liberal my vote is all but ignored. Still I vote just to exercise my right. I wish they'd fix that electoral college thing.
