Default I voted, did you?

Remember to get out and vote today. Lots of close elections. Everyone should know by now their vote counts!

I tell ya, the voting machines they use in my area are from the 40s! I remember going in as kid with my mom when she voted on these. Reliable though. However, rumor has it that dead come back to vote... If you know what I mean.

I hope there aren't any fiascos like the national election in 2000. As soon as I get away from this screen, I will vote.

I pan to vote during my lunch break... and since I'm from Florida, my vote is bound to be screwed up.

Brand new touch screen voting computers. The system worked really well! of course, I spend everyday on a computer. I wonder what kind of outrage there will be since most of the older generations don't use computers.

I the words of Jimmy Fallen about a proposal to vote over the internet. "Old people really love the internet!"

I did my voting already!!! This morning and those new Electronic voting machines are pretty cool actually. NO way of messing up. I even hit two people's name (BY ACCIDENT damnit) and it said "YOU have selected two people you are not allowed to do so, please touch selection again if you wish to change your vote" Pretty cool and it was an easy thing to do!



But then again i'm sure FL will mess it up again some how!
