I just proudly cast my vote for Hillary Clinton |
|
what a thrill. To cast a primary vote that actually MEANS something. California's primaries have always been so late as to be practically meaningless.
Oddly, I was given the choice to vote on touchscreen or paper. I've NEVER had the option to vote on anything BUT paper in CA. That surprised me - I thought the Sec. of State blocked their use. Anybody know more?

7. I've never heard of paper or plastic voting options in Cali |
|
but i've been gone a loooong time.
I voted first thing this morning. I'm a Dem, living in TN these days, so a primary vote is usually the ONLY vote that means something.
Maybe this year's general will be different!

8. it was certainly the first time I was given the options |
|
fortunately, there were >10 paper voting stations that were full. The two touch-screen machines were off in the corner, unused.

9. You're lucky you had options. I had paperless touch screen. |
|
Quick and easy, but scary.

Hope you can sleep well tonight. Think of all of our men and women in the middle of hell right before you close your eyes, and wonder if Hillary will ever bring them home.

24. If Obama's the nominee, you'll be wondering if President McCain will ever bring them home. |

I know MonkeyFunk and I can attest to the fact that he is "loose".
Did you mean something else, but can't spell commonly-used words?

17. Wow, what a surprise! |
|
LOL Thanks for voting.
FYI I have used touchscreens in CA before--can't remember which election, but I never voted anywhere else and I have used a touchscreen.

25. So did I! I know what you mean. Last time, Kerry had been crowned (before the vote |
|
even), while my candidate dropped out by then. Nobody cared about my vote.
