How do you vote?

We do vote by mail here.  How does your county/state/whatever vote?  Who uses the cheater electronic machines?

Re: How do you vote?

  • Depends on the town/ward. I've never voted at this polling place (going tonight) so i have no idea what it is.

  • Cheater electronic machines. Or we have in the past. I was going at lunch but I got sidetracked by ravioli. I am heading out now.
  • I get an absentee ballot and inevitably forgot to fill it out until the night before, then walk it to my polling place.

  • Cheater machine. I'm going with Miles tonight (unless of course he's in a miserable mood - then I'll have to run over after he goes to sleep).

  • I vote early with a cheater machine. If I don't vote early, the democratic party people come to my house about every day until I do vote.

    11/11/11 = 5 years. Woah!
  • Like this. Oh, you can't see me, but I'm totally showing you
  • This is the first year we're going to have cheater machines (we used to have old school "pull my lever" machines).

    I'm going to vote, then I'm going to OMG THE NEW CHIPOTLE THAT JUST OPENED 2 MILES FROM MY HOUSE for dinner.

  • OMG Vicki!  This is a momentous occasion!  Do you need suggestions?
    It's going to take you 400 years to eat your burrito.

  • I KNOW!  It will be like having a neverending gobstopper!  Except more delicious. 

    I'm hoping maybe they have kids sized burritos.  I'm going for the barbacoa with corn salsa.  I really want some chips and guacamole too.  Curse my teeny stomach.  Although, Chipotle is a good reason why I need a teeny stomach.

  • I don't recall seeing a kid sized burrito, but you never know.  I would recommend you get yours in a bowl instead.  You don't want to waste precious tummy space on a stupid tortilla.  Plus, it's easier to take your leftovers home.
    You could also get the tacos -- they use 3 normal sized tortillas for those and you can put in the same toppings you would your burrito.

    Try the steak sometime!

  • I get the tacos sometimes. I started ordering them when I had GD because they have less carbs (no rice) than the burritos, and I find them quite tasty. I still order them sometimes!

  • Good call, Cali.  I got the bowl and lovingly put 98% of my bowl in the fridge.    I'll try the steak next time, Brian got it and loved it.
  • Damn all of you and your chipotle talk!

    We also have cheater machines. I just left the polling place, was expecting a huge crowd and not a single person in line in front of me. Slightly sad.

  •  

    the new cheater machines have hit NYC.

     

    I voted for the madam/hedge fund trader for governor

  • I never remember to mail my ballot in time. I dropped ours off on the way to class.

    More states should get with the vote by mail system! It's cheap and results in good turnout.

    Agreed. I would totally vote by mail.

    Sort of related, there's a story going around that some tea partiers were calling the elderly and telling them they'd have shorter lines at the polls if they went tomorrow and calling college kids and telling them to vote online.

    Conversely, I got a flier from the Tea Partier down the street that's running for State House telling me to vote on November 3rd.  It was on there four times.  That's just stupid stupid stupid.

    I voted on SAT scantron.  I still don't trust those machines and I miss vote by mail.
