Edited on Sat Sep-27-08 09:20 PM by thunder rising
Call the Supervisor of Elections in your county (I know in Martin Cnty you can go online) and ask for absentee/vote by mail ballot to be sent to you.
1. Record crowds are expected, 2. Ballots could run out, and lastly 3. Machines can break. 4. Barack Obama campaign has bee urging early voting There is NO advantage to election day voting, but there are MANY disadvantages.

1. Do you think this is better than voting in person? |
|
I am VERY worried that in this state my vote will not count as a registered Democrat. I am a former New Yorker.

4. When they count the absentee ballots Dem lawyers will be on site. They would have to know your |
|
name. Also, the address issue is resolved.

2. I don't want to vote by mail.... |
|
to me, it would be a lot easier for that to disappear than if I go in person.

5. WRONG! Many stories exist about ballot boxes disappearing. Absentee ballots go direct to SoE |

10. And these can be challenged by Republicans while ultimately being tossed |
|
without voters knowing. I am not comfortable with that, personally.

13. No, I will not be outside. |

There has never been a line at my polling place. They get people in and out quickly.
Jesus, what's with you trying to tell everyone what the fuck to do? Left over military power trip?

20. No, you're making a fool out of yourself. |
|
I've already told you 3 times, I will do what I feel is right, and you just keep arguing with me about it.
I'm 50 years old, and don't care to take orders from someone who clearly thinks they know every god damn thing there is to know.
You definitely win the jack ass award, if that's what you were after.

21. I live in NYC and I'm voting by ballot. Even though I'm working on poll day as a poll worker. |
|
The lines will be atrocious and the machines here are butt as old. Ridiculously old!! I want to make sure my vote goes through.
