With all this AG talk, I want to make sure one thing gets said: gently caress Lori Swanson forever. Not just for being anti-union in the Democrat Farmer Laborer Party or for being the slimiest headline seeker in Minnesota or for making the work environment in the AG office hell or for forcing her workers to "volunteer" for her campaign or any of her other lovely behavior as AG, but for kicking off this whole drat mess with her "will she won't she" gubernatorial campaign.

I voted absentee a few weeks ago, but glad to hear everyone going to the polls. I really hope Cordray gets across the finish line in my home state (Ohio). I have lost almost all hope that Issue One, which would lower penalties for drug possession, will pass but am cautiously optimistic about the rest of my ballot.

For those, if possible, i voted for the woman candidate over the man, and if there were two women or no women running, i voted for the least white sounding name i too used this voting methodology also the republicans electioneering outside the polling place told me which judges were gop approved which aided in determining who note to vote for, as the judges didn't have a party listed also my 4 year old son told the republicans that he voted at home to put donald trump in jail while my 5 year old daughter went on a monologue about how donald trump is evil and took over the planet. i told the chuds to listen to the children

Submarine Sandpaper posted:I dunno the timing of it now compared to pre opiods makes me optimistic chids will go for it the polling was really good at the start of the year, but that lead has narrowed substantially in recent weeks due to a really aggressive campaign against it by everyone from the Cleveland Plain Dealer to the County Commissioners Association. I would love it if it passes but I expect the undecideds to break against it E: One good thing about absentee ballot is I could look up all the candidates in advance and figure out which of the candidates in the nonpartisan local races were garbage.

Im not holding my breath on Issue 1, my chud family agonzied over Dewine and Cordray and in the end most voted for Dewine, I guess being corrupt as gently caress and aiding in the robbing of public school funding doesnt matter in Ohio.

I always do my research and fill out my sample ballot, then bring that with me to the polls. Then I can open it up and fill out the same holes that I filled out at home.

HugeGrossBurrito posted:what the hell is wrong with people who wait til election day to vote Here in Michigan (until Prop 3 passes) you can only get absentee ballots if you are either unable to get to the polls on election day or are old (or lie about not being able to get to the polls). We also don't have early voting. Most people don't bother because of that. Voting is usually pretty easy in person here and the lines aren't bad.... unless you're in Detroit.
