Are you registered to vote?

I think I followed that with a disclaimer; If I insulted anyone or hurt anyone's feelings, please don't hesitate to let me know and I promise to be more insulting next time. or something like that. Anyhoo, all meant in humor and fun, but I can be a little rough around the edges at times. It's all part of my charm....(batting short eyelashes with no mascara on them)

I once had a boss with this gift... Get into a meeting because of a big problem and before you knew it everyone had a to-do to solve a peice of the big problem and we're happy they did. It's a rare gift you have there Bay!

I voted 7 times for good luck, just like I did in 2016

Voter turn-out in my state was record-high for midterm elections. 57% of eligible voters! I'm part delighted and partly like "seriously, why don't more people vote???"

I don't know why??? My large family one of my sons and I are the only ones that vote. I have voted every since I can remember, I consider it one of the "more better" rights I have as a USA citizen.

I'm planning to do absentee ballot next year. I've missed voting before from being sick. Almost did again this year, but with a rotten governor in office, nothing was going to keep me away!

I voted for the governor before because he *was* about fiscal responsibility and cutting back. But second term he started doing stupid crap. He used to drive a Saturn, then started takin private jet for *20 mile trip* kinda stuff. Cutting funding across the board... well, budget cuts suck but gotta keep it balanced. Then he gave a $4 BILLION incentive package to a corporation (which is like paying them $308,000 per job it creates... hmmm... that logic isn't working for me somehow. If they really wanted to make more jobs, they could have given $32,000 to every small business in the state with employees, which would create 10x as many jobs). nope, nope, nope, bye Felicia! Cost him the election, I'm certain! If he hadn't done that I might have voted for him again.

Sorry for political rant, was intended to be about why I voted. and, apparently, why a lot of other people in my state voted! LOL It was a very close race. New governor won by just a smidge, 1%.

Ours was popular until that last bit! There was actually a recall election and he won. I voted for him in the recall over the fiscal responsibility piece. IDK, I vote for the candidate, not the party. Have voted republican, democrat, libertarian, independent, green party before!


LOL, reminds me of a conversation I had with one of my parent's employees years ago. I might have been in high school. I went off on him about voting. "Vote for yourself! Vote for your mom! Vote for anarchy! Just vote! LOL! Seriously would make my day if a person who believes in anarchy voted for write in candidate "anarchy".


Also, I wonder what would happen if Donald Duck gets enough votes to win office? I always get a kick out of the news reports on how many write-in votes for Donald Duck in presidential elections.

 

[CrealCritter]

Yeah...that seems legit

I know right.

 

[CrealCritter]

Yep, since being 18. Have only missed a few primaries. Already voted for Tuesday's election....

Way to go thumbs_up

No spacebook or twitter here, I have no time for drama. Which is what I hear spacebook and twitter are mostly about.
