Everytime I hear about Nevadas ballot choice "None of the Above"

[BootinUp]

I think 2 things:

Brewsters Millions was a funny movie.

I can't believe Nevada really has that on their ballot.

:crazy:

1. What do they do if "None of the above" wins?

[FSogol]

2. I legally change my name to "None of the Above" and move to Nevada?

:shrug:

3. So, what happens when None of the Above wins?

It's bound to if htey keep it up.

Of course, what a pointless, dumbass gesture to spend the time to go to the polls and vote. There is clearly a difference between candidates in most races and even if you don't like either, it pays to hold your nose and vote for one.

BTW, I liked Brewster's Millions, too.

5. Thats just it

apparently people aren't even trying to understand the candidates. They are just so MAD at politics they want to blame the political machine!!!!!!!!!!

4. I just heard that a vote for "none of the above" is actually a vote for Harry Reid so I hope

"none of the above" gets more votes than Angle! (I heard that on MSNBC in case anyone was wondering.)

6. Info on the None of the Above Vote below.....

Status:
Nevada enacted America's first Voter Consent Law in 1976, and it remains in effect today.

Abstract:
The statue establishes a permanent, non binding "None of these candidates" ballot option for all state wide offices. For each of these offices, after the list of candidates, appears the ballot line "None of these candidates". Voters may vote either for a candidate or for "None of these candidates", but not both. The candidate with the most votes is elected no matter how many votes are cast for "None of these candidates".

Good for Harry....bad for Angle

7. I think of an election in San Francisco where a Sister of Perpetual Indulgence ran ...

(the Sisters were a gay male parody troop) and listed his/her occupation as "Nun of Thee above."

11. Essentially, some people in Nevada will take the time to go vote...for nothing.

Because it doesn't count. Sometimes when I think I have heard the stupidest thing ever, I am surprised.

14. They are voting to have better candidates

Hey I was pushing that vote on my GOP relatives in Winnemucca NV!

[enlightenment]

12. Why?

I rather appreciated it, myself - used it for a judicial selection where neither candidate impressed me.

Sometimes, 'none of the above' is the perfect choice.

13. I talked my uncle into voting that way

He hates Reid but I sent him some stuff about Angle that disturbed him too so I convinced him that "none of the above" reflects his true feelings of not approving either candidate. WHICH IT DOES!
