I voted...how many others have so far?
« on: October 22, 2012, 05:46:58 PM »
I cast my vote early. ......is EVERYONE going to vote?
My suggestion is just add your number to your reply. 

I am number one.  (In the end, we will know what percentage of our members admit to voting.)

I haven't been into town to pick up my mail yet (Washington is a "vote by mail" only state) but will be doing so tomorrow and will get it in the mail by Thursday. Don't count me out!  ;)

I will vote on election day. I'm a stickler for tradition.

I will also be guiding my 18 year old son through the registration/voting process for the very first time.

Yes I like Election Day too.  I'm also not doing a straight ticket, because I want to relish voting against the Democrat on each section of the ballot.

I always wait til election day. My wife always votes early. Nov 6th is marked on my calender, it is the first thing I do that particular day. Anyone who does business with me knows I may be a little late. Heck, I'm thinking of not staffing...It is the most important day this year.


NO STAFF TODAY......GO VOTE.

I like to go election day.  I don't trust our Sec State (he is a Soros minion) to count my absentee ballot.

I live in NY.  I vote on election day.  There's no other choice, not that I'm complaining.  I have about a 30-40 yard walk, down to the end of the block, to the public grade school (where kids are required to wear uniforms!) to vote.  Polls open at 6 and I'm usually there before 7 so that I can hit the Uruguyan Bakery right across the street (they open at 7) for some pan con chicharron, a slightly salty bread baked with crispy pieces of fried pork.  Nothing like pig for breakfast.  (Imagine that.  A voting thread becoming a food thread.  Go figure!)  Here in NY, only absentee ballots are early voting (which includes those who are disabled and unable to travel to the polling precinct).  Everybody else votes on election day, with which I happen to agree.  (We're also a closed primary state.)  I hate early voting and voting by mail (along with same day registration), as there is too much room for fraud.  I'm The Vote Nazi:  If people can't take a couple of hours out of their oh so busy lives once every four years to vote on Election Day, then tough sh*t, no ballot for you.

ETA:  La Nueva Uruguyan Bakery:



They also make some damn good empanadas con carne; I may just have to pick some up for lunch/dinner on election day.

yep, I agree

used to annoy me that my father in law would request an absentee ballot because he didn't want to go to the polling place on election day

Yeah, well for those of you who advocate waiting. My father died on election day 1986 when I lived in Reno Nevada. And I had to leave suddenly to see his body home.  And Harry Reid was first elected to the US SENATE that day, without me having cast a vote against him. If I die today, I have cast my vote against several of the wicked and I will not answer for that when I stand before judgment, nor have my offspring suffer under the rule of the evil ones when I could have voted against them but delayed until i could not.

ChrstnHsbndFthr, not to put to fine a point to it, but that's a really lame excuse to justify early voting.

It's unfortunate to miss voting day I was looking forward to confronting one of those Blue Helmets
and taking the opportunity to advise the alien he is illegally in a voting premises where only qualified
voters are permitted.  I rest easy, though, knowing there will be other more articulate rednecks
there to take my place in line.  MSM are already talking about the confrontations between the two
groups on all 3 local  channels.  heh

I don't think so at all. It may not justify it overall, but based on CHF's personal experience, I think I'd vote early too.

I don't vote because I live in California, and I live in a liberal district to boot. The outcomes of my district are already a foregone conclusion.
