My observations while voting (yeah, not a bdsm issue)

Yep, another election. This time, we're voting for...um...some people to replace some other people because the other people didn't do what we wanted them to do, or they did what we didn't want them to do, so we'll put in some new people who actually don't have an idea of what they're going to do, but they promise not to do what the other guys did, which was to do something we weren't expecting, which is okay because the new guys are not telling us what they will or won't do.

So, I went in to vote. Somehow, I didn't end up disenfranchised as my last letter to the Registrar of Voters must have made them realize I wasn't a total nimrod and that my reference to the voting laws of California (which I included a copy of) and the passage in federal congressional statutes (which I included a copy of) indicated that they were full of shit and had no idea that they were depriving a citizen of constitutional rights. So, rather than actually address it, they just sent me my voting card and listed where I could vote. That's what I love about this country: Accountability.

So, I went in to vote. And voted. The people working in the polling place decided WHILE I WAS VOTING that maybe this might be a good time to unplug the computer voting machine I was using. Let me repeat this: The people working in the polling place decided WHILE I WAS VOTING that maybe this might be a good time to unplug the computer voting machine I was using. Does anyone see a problem with this? Well, I did, and I actually STOPPED them from unplugging the machine (so they could recharge it) while I was voting. I said they could wait until AFTER I WAS DONE.

So, I went in to vote. And voted. And got someone else's provisional ballot. Well, I wasn't supposed to get it, but after I finished voting, one of the precinct people handed me SOMEONE ELSE'S provisional ballot cause they thought I was probably the guy waiting for it. The guy waiting for it was too busy staring at a hot girl in line to vote that I could have taken his ballot, voted on it, and got out of there before anyone would have ever figured it out. And if he would have tried to vote, they probably would have arrested him for attempting to cast two votes in the election. But fortunately for him, I told the precinct people that HE was the guy with the provisional ballot need, so as he went to grab the ballot, I went over and talked to the hot girl he was talking to. I mean, I was only doing my duty as an American citizen, making sure that she was never alone in the precinct because hot girls need...um...I really got nothing here....

So, I went in to vote. And voted. And then I went to my car and drove home. Funny, but no matter where I ever vote, there is NEVER an exit poll person anywhere near my voting establishment, almost as if I never seem to be part of a place that is important enough to help make a determination about whether or not my vote really makes a difference.

And who did I vote for? Who knows? I thought it was a video game I was playing, so I just started pressing buttons. I may have voted Bush 4 more years for all I know, but at least I got the high score and got my orc hunter up another level. I tried to activate the pvp section of the voting machine, but the ballot staff stopped me as I tried to "engage" the hot girl in the next booth. That's the last time I vote on a carebear voting machine.
