I voted...

[trey]

5 min walk to the polls.  10 mins in line / at the poll.  5 min home.  pretty fast. 

i voted on the same archaic machine that aaron voted on.  you have to pull this huge lever across the face of the contraption, then turn smaller knobs towards the name of your selected candidate.  once you're done voting you have to pull the original lever back to its original position to lock and your votes and reset the smaller knobs for the next voter.  seems like the process is completely mechanical so i assume someone's reading a counter on the back of the machine at the end of the night.

i've never voted before today.  i had to vote at a church where crazy old people were working and looking over my shoulder as i was voting, i marked my votes with a sharpie, i didn't get a sticker, and it took around three minutes.  boo voting.

That's exactly what my brother, who lives in Georgia, said when I sent him the photo. Archaic.
Apparently GA has touch-screen voting machines now.

CALL LIBERTY!!!

Remember when Wilford used to sound so agitated and begrudging when he said that? I loved that.

I voted in a precinct that is one of Sacto's most disenfranchised (lotsa non-citizens in this precinct) at 10:15, and there was still a line of about 15 people. When I saw my polling location on a map, I definitely expected there not to be a line.

As I left on my bike, I rode across the campus of City College, and there were two thug-life-lookin' homies signifying to each other across a parking lot. One yelled to the other "YO! THAT NIGGA GONNA BE PRESIDENT OR WHAT?!?"

polls are four blocks from my house, ZERO people inside, we walked right up and did our thing. They gave us cookies. Home in less than 10 minutes.

The columbus dispatch was nice enough to run a huge article about how little your vote actually counts, yesterday. Right after an article about how long the lines were going to be. Sweet!

Good luck to the Repubs w/ those lawsuits

Summary
The McCain-Palin campaign accuses ACORN, a community activist group that operates nationwide, of perpetrating "massive voter fraud." It says Obama has ?long and deep? ties to the group. We find both claims to be exaggerated. But we also find Obama has understated the extent of his work with the group.

    * Neither ACORN nor its employees have been found guilty of, or even charged with, casting fraudulent votes. What a McCain-Palin Web ad calls "voter fraud" is actually voter registration fraud. Several ACORN canvassers have been found guilty of faking registration forms and others are being investigated. But the evidence that has surfaced so far shows they faked forms to get paid for work they didn?t do, not to stuff ballot boxes.

    * Obama?s path has intersected with ACORN on several occasions ? more often than he allowed in the final debate.

uh huh, it was all "You have a better chance of being struck by lightning TWICE than to have cast the deciding vote! You would be stupid to bother!"

Ok, I added that last part.  jerks.

My 15 minute walk each way to my polling place took longer than actually voting.  Plenty of people but no actual lines.  Had to re-register because I've moved since the primaries.  Probably took about ten minutes total.

This is my first presidential election and I'm retardedly excited about it.

If there's an over/under I'm still taking over with that litigious bunch.

Summary judgment, lawsuit tossed.

Even with most conservative judges fact free, fictional narratives don't do well in court.

The Repubs have been unable to provide ONE link between ACORN and so-called voter fraud.

Are you sure that Gawker thing isn't a hoax? Looks real, but that site's notorious and I couldn't find anything at CNN.
