Get out and Vote!

“Today is election day. Thank goodness there will be an end to the incessant political advertisements. No matter who you intend to vote for, exercise your right and get out there and vote. In my humble opinion, if you don't vote, you have no right to complain about what the government is doing.

Now...go vote!”

“I've already done it. Wearing my "I Voted" sticker right now.”

“no way, I aint even regestered...



(there that should stir things up a bit)”

“VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE.

BICKERING IS OVER. ;) Let's all get out and vote today, if you haven't already.

(early voted here.)”

“I guess everyone also has the right to not vote. Just don't let us hear you complaining about decisions your politicians made.”

“If edward abbey wernt dead I'd write him in!



hmm...but is he really dead, hmm? wheres the proof? wheres his body? HMMM?????

“My polls are open from 8 AM until 7 PM. I'll be voting after work today.”

“I voted over a week ago.”

“I arrived at my precinct at 7:02AM, 2 minutes after the polls opened. I have NEVER waited in a line at my precinct. I had to wait 45 minutes today...it was crazy!! But, its great to see a high turnout.

Next time, I'll be doing an absentee ballot. No waiting necessary.”

“Smilley, I hate to break it to you but there will be no next time if the republicans win. The'll take over the country and take away our right to vote so they never feel threatened again.

ok, nm. That wont really happen...just talking like a sausage.”

“Spirit, if you're not even registered, you don't have much room to talk. There's no reason anyone shouldn't be registered to vote somewhere.”

“HPM tried to vote this morning, but the line was around the block! That's NEVER happened here!”

“I'm going to vote "Yes" on everything!”

“I voted!

I had to wait in line for about half an hour - not too bad, BUT in 18 years as a voter, I've NEVER had to wait before.

Heard on the news that in FL, 30% of registered voters voted early - so maybe this is a good sign for turnout.

It's disgusted me in the past to hear that we had less than 50% voter turnout.”

“"I've already done it. Wearing my "I Voted" sticker right now......"

Is it place safely on your arm band?


I'm kidding!”

“Got my Kerry/Edwards shirt on and am heading out as soon as the morning crowd dwindles.

Was gonna run up to the polls in my Run Against Bush running shirt. But, it's raining, my knee still hurts and I'm sick. I couldn't get a break today.”

“RA, in one particular election here, I was one of 91 people in our area who voted. Out of thousands, it was me and a few others. How pathetic is that?

“Gonna vote after work. Last time was 3 elections ago. Time to be responsible again.”

“it's going to be interesting to see the percentage of people who voted this time!”

“well I went and voted today, unfortuantely my candidate wasn't on the ballot. The line to get a write in ballot was twice as long as the line I stood in to get.

since I couldn't get the write in ballot I voted for no one for President since I think both are scumbags. If I had gotten the ballot I would have written in NONE OF THE ABOVE”

“Yep on that Lyra. There's a 50/50 mix of Bush and Kerry signs around here. The sign in my yard says "None of the Above."”

“wearing my sticker

sc, why would you not vote...u an ex-con or something?”

“"Got my Kerry/Edwards shirt on and am heading out as soon as the morning crowd dwindles....."

T - you might want to bring a different shirt. They will kick you outta the line if you have anything like that on in line. That happened to me and the "Perot-Mobile". I shpowed up to the polls, with the signs in every window and the Star Spangled Banner blasting. Got outta my car, went inside to vote. The yshow me the door and told me that I couldn't get back in until I got rid of my Perot buttons on my jacket. Seeing the high trunout rate, I wanted to save ya some time.

PS - How was the rally and feel better soon!”

“my dad's been in Ohio for the past week, trying to convince people to vote for Kerry. sounds like fun...not!”

“OH, good point Q. Hope Tarabull reads this before she heads there.”

“Thats it ! I'm gonna vote for Perot!
Is he still alive ??”

“I was the first to vote in my town this morning. A line formed behind me quickly at 6 AM. All I had to do was hit one button, then the red one to register my choices.

I was done in 30 seconds.”

“I'd like to be the polling official who asked for tarabull to take of her shirt so she could vote.”

“trebait, are you going to get a write in ballot for None of the Above”

“"OH, good point Q. Hope Tarabull reads this before she heads there......"

Just to make sure, I just called her.”

“There is a separate ballot if you write someone in? In MI, you just write them in on the ballot you got. Ewker, tell Tennessee to get with the times!”

“"I was done in 30 seconds......"


Hey, next time try thinking about baseball, or something!


LOL!”

“Smiley, In Tenn. we have voting machines, you push the button to vote. Do you guys still use paper?? Who needs to get with the times.

I do wish they would add None of the Above to the ballot.

We only use paper for write in ballots.

“Is anyone else listening to Air America, I can\'t believe the voter intimadation reports !!! GESUS is this 2004 or 1964 ??
AirAmericaradio.com listen to america vote.
REPORT ANY INTIMADATION YOU SEE !!!!!!!!!!!”

“OMG OMG !!!!
Renquest has a very fatal type of Cancer and could possibly die in the next month !!! If the margin of a Kerry win is close, Bush could still appoint a SCJ in Renquest's place. So GET OUT AND VOTE !!! If we win with enough of a Margin then Kerry would appoint, DON'T ALLOW BUSH A RECESSED DECISION !!!!”

“LOL @ laqtis!”

“tara--
like everyone else said-- they probably won't let you get within a certain distance from the precinct if you have any political info on you in any visible manner... :-(

you might want to bring a jacket or another shirt to wear over your Kerry shirt so that you can get right into the polls.

I was going to go in the morning, but have decided to wait until after work to go. (I'm sure we'll be in line for a long time!)”

“I saw people walking out after voting with Kerry or Bush pins on the shirts/jackets.

as long as your not trying to hand out literature within 100' of the voting place I don't think it matters what you wear.”

“LOL! Sorry Ewker! I guess you hicks are ahead of us!!”

“My wife and I went around 8 am. We had trouble finding parking. I've never seen anything like it. The lines for our precinct were reasonable but a more populated precinct had A LOT of people in line. I told a poll worker about the parking situation and she said it had been hectic since 6 am. It was all very orderly and well run. There were plenty of machines available. Thanks to my local poll workers and everyone across the country working to empower the people.”

“I just talked to T. She's in line and is now wearing a sweat shirt.”

“i was wondering where you'd been, Violin!

eeeek, so i'm going to be at the polling place for several hours, it seems like...”

“Tell her to turn her phone off...no cell phones or pagers allowed in the voting area either. :)”

“hicks....grrrr those are fighting words Smelly Girl”

“LOL! Just trying to rib you a bit, Ewker. I see it worked!! ;)”

“I just got back! Massive turnout and it only took me about 20 minutes. They're doing a great job in my area. Everyone was very nice to each other.”

“Oh, I forgot to mention the great writing on this girls car. It said "No More Bu#&%!$!" Crack me UP!”

“Ewker, there were 7 presidentail nominees to choose from on our ballot. I chose one of the "others."”

“treebait, there was 5 on our ballot for Pres. the normal 3 stooges (Bush,Kerry and Nader) and 2 independents. No area for other :(”

“Krist on crutches kids! Can't ya'll keep this shlt on one thread? You'd think someone was pregnant...”
