So, I just voted in the fl primary. And it was not a good experience.
Edited on Tue Aug-24-10 01:06 PM by glowing
We had to turn OFF our cell phones before entering the building. No picture policy. Then, I go to sign in and the lady questions my signature from my I'D with my picture and address on it. She's not sure that my handwriting is a match. I literally emptied my purse with bills and cc and voter I'D card. Finally, she says ok. However, this is not the first time they have tried to play this game with me. I vote everytime there is a primary OR an election. And while I'm 31, most would assume that I am 26. As well, I live in the part of the county that that is red, red, red. I honestly think it's all a hoax. If I hadn't made a stink and emptied my purse, she would have given me a "we'll see if you qualify later ballot". I wonder now how many of these grey haired republican poll workers try this game with the younger crowd or someone with darker shade to their skin than mine.
It's going to be an interesting election year; that's for sure.
Oh almost forgot, the opti scan is supposed to work any way u insert the card. Today, the only optiscan was having issues with ballots fed right side up.

It's still a small bonfire.

2. I'll be interested to hear any other problems happening.
the 3 way senate race is going to make for some crazy politics coming up.

3. Depending on where you are...
You usually have an immediate right to go to Court and get a Order allowing you to vote. They assume most people don't want to go through the trouble, and therefore offer the provisional ballot.

5. Even though photo id's are not required in MN, I always take
both my MNDL and passport with me, just in case I'm questioned or if I find that someone has already used my name to vote.

Time to dust off the old Diebold theories again.
Tell ya what, DUmmies--if you hate Diebold so much, give me all your credit and ATM cards, since it's painfully apparent they are corrupted as well.
-
Well, if you're 31, but only look like you're 26, then of course it's understandable the worker would have problems with the ID!

So anyone younger than 31 or darker than the OP'er is too stupid to know what to do?! :o

7. My wife and I voted earlier, no problems at all, nice positive experience
Yes, they were all pukes working there! I walked in and asked out loud:
"Where do proud Democrats vote?"
:bouncy::jerkit:
I voted in two primaries this year and couldn't tell you what party any of the poll workers belonged to. I don't know why these DUmmy assholes want to harass unpaid volunteers, but it seems like they enjoy it.

I bet they didn't harass you because you look like a repuke.

To which the poll worker answered: "They don't! There is no such thing as a proud Democrat, only stupid ones!"

Did those grey hair republican poll workers look like this?

Wow, impressive! He "asked out loud" too -- as opposed to asking not out loud. He is a rebel baby.

Life is always drama and lies for a DUmmie. Always. Back when hurricane Ike rocked through our area one of the DUmmies was claiming to have driven over here and there were 'Bodies in the TREES!'. It was a lie.

Any bets on, "I'm 26 but look 41", is closer to the truth?
I'm 56 and it usually blows my clients away when they find out! They usually peg me for in my 40's, but I have to say a lot of my clients have been rode hard and put away wet, so it's understandable!

I just read a poll today and Rubio was leading Crist by 8 points and Meek by 23.

I showerd, shaved, and brushed my teeth before going out that day. I would make a lousy liberal.

Crack and meth will do that to you.....and it blurs your mirrors.

I can pretty much spot them as soon as I see them! Rotten teeth and a crater face is pretty easy to spot, even from a distance!

Ya know, most places I've lived, the poll workers were split evenly between the two major parties without regard to local demographics (Red state/blue state stuff), and they're generally old-timers who know each other very well, get along well, and take their job with all the seriousness they should.
-
Yeah - this is just a setup for the coming stolen election cries - when DU refers to posts like these as proof positive when their people lose.
-
I'll be glad when we go back to paper ballots....I could mark several paper ballots while waiting for the Diebold to go to the "next page".
-
It's the Democrat party primary and they're still looking for ways to claim their vote didn't get countred. :loser:

There is supposed to be an official member of each party at every polling place to monitor the polls -- yet another reason why her story is total nonsense.

After skipping past all the Democrats and other political leeches I didn't like enough to cast a vote for, I think it took me a whole thirty seconds to vote.
-
Yeah, like ya know how the vote was stolen in Florida, even though the Dems ran the precincts!
Rove, you magnificent bastard!

I'm sure that Truth-Is-All already has multiple spreadsheets & bullshit theories ready for why it'll be a stolen election. BANK IT! :-)

I'm sure that crazed loon is still obsessing about the 2004 election and reaching through the food tray slot of his rubber room to grab anyone pausing nearby, so he can explain his foundationally-flawed statistical theories of election theft to them...if he hasn't worked himself up to another, deadlier heart attack in the meantime, that is!

I just decided to peruse the Progressive Independent forum, and it just makes me laugh to read some of TIA's claims. For instance, he has "evidence" that Nixon stole the election in 1968 and Bush stole it from Dukakis in 1988. :mental:

Just gotta be one of those "links" the DUmmies use when debating the facts with us conservatives, huh?
They pull this stuff right outa their nether region when their heads have to come out for air!

This is what they do - they deposit their own 'facts' here and there throughout moonbat friendly sites, and then refer to them as evidence later.
It the equivalent of me writing 'Joe is gonna steal my lunch money ZOMG !!!111!!' with crayon on a coloring book page, sealing it in an envelope and mailing it to myself. Then a few months later when I discover I'm short for the vending machine, I pull the letter out of my ass, publicly rip it open , point an indignant finger at Joe and shout J'ACCUSE !!!11!!!
Joe has no idea what happened, but now I have this pre-dated 'prediction' of the future, fooling the intellectual lightweights. They immediately pull out their own anecdotal evidence about never trusting Joe, his shifty eyes, or his pockets always bulging with change.
And the manufactured 'truth' spreads on its own, and soon poor Joe is the head of a crime syndicate - responsible for shaking down hundreds of kids daily for their lunch money. And TIA makes a spreadsheet about it.

It wouldn't surprise me if he still managed to get himself banned.
