Having a Spanish voting sticker seems.....odd.


I voted! No sticker, no pin, no coffee. Whats with this year?

I have apathy.. not for voting, just for the sheer pointlessness of the voting. Not saying I wouldn't and don't vote, just saying it doesn't exactly get me anything except the same frustration it always does...regardless of who I vote for.

Sorry just bitter and tired right now and sick of working a million hours, paying my taxes on time, paying all bills on time and contributing to the community by educating children and having that mean I can get no assistance or aide of any kind, but if I were a worthless parasitic drain on society there would be tons of people lining up to help me.

Oh I don't think my vote counts for jack really. The reason I vote is I've heard the fact of whether you vote or not is available. So, they may not know who you voted for, but they know whether or not you're a voter. So, if I ever want a politician to listen to anything I have to say I at least need to have a record of being an active voter.

Not for me. We used a machine that we've used since the Bush vs Kerry election. Not that it's very intuitive. It uses a big wheel to navigate the ballot where you can just turn right to go forward or left to go back. Then a button to select stuff or clear something. It works but it's silly why not have a forward and back button?

We have heavy card stock that you fill in an arrow with a pencil, to select your choices, and then you insert it into a electronic counter. It is simple and quick.
