Why did the chicken cross the road?
So that its subjects will view it with admiration, as a chicken which has the daring and courage to boldly cross the road,
but also with fear, for whom among them has the strength to contend with such a paragon of avian virtue? In such a manner is the princely
chicken's dominion maintained. ~Machiavelli
No.

At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.

My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
Already done. Slow day though, I only got a Congressional seat, 3 state amendments, and a county bond issue to vote on.

Good on you.
We used a new-fangled voting machine for the first time this election. Fill in the dots on a paper ballot with a pen for your choices. Then feed the ballot into a scanner to cast your vote, the paper ballot gets stored in the machine as a back up in case the scanner malfunctions. Kinda reminded me of taking the old multiple choice tests in school. You really didn't get much privacy as you filled out the ballot at a long table with only these little cardboard dividers between you and the people either side of you. Didn't bother me who knew my choices, but some people complained about it. Besides, I'm too sexy for my ballot.

I went to the polling place, filled out a card with my info on it, handed it to a polling person (who, btw, shouted "WE'VE GOT A FIRST TIME VOTER HERE!!!"), who then handed me some sort of yellow plastic card-like thing, which then I went over to a polling station, put the card into the slot, then voted. Then I got my sticker and walked out. Pretty simple.
Though I would hate to have to fill out all those bubbles like you did HT.
Did anyone do their research on candidates past congress and governor? I did some research but I really had no idea about all those different judges.

Voters educated on the issues and what their legislators actually voted for, as opposed to what they claim, are a politician's worst nightmare. Many people can't be bothered to "trust but verify" and the pols count on that apathy.

I cant vote yet...
Though I did serve as an election judge. Worst job ever. Why is it so hard for people to put theur ballots in a machine?
TosaInu shall never be forgotten.
I hope we never get rid of paper ballots here, it just would not be the same to know the result say two or three hours after polls close. If we ever did I bet it would be some EU thing that did it and it would be boring and antiseptic, we just recently scrapped E-voting machines here before they were even used.
Half the drama is from cameras switching to some place where some major upset has occured, IBM announcing the result on ten o'clock news![]()
