The polls for the northern part of the county and the northermost city in the county were at opposite ends of the same gym. It sure was nice to just stroll casually by the the long city line and just vote with no waiting (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

4pm and I walked in, voted and was back in my truck, all within 5 minutes.
Why is it EVERYTHING in Texas is faster, bigger ... just better in general? All those other states really do suck, you know ... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/nutkick.gif) |

Texas: It's like a whole, well, "different" country.... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Actually, sippin' drinks at the Oasis on Lake Travis would have been a FINE way to watch the election returns. By that I mean of course watching the sunset from one of the terraces, and occasionally checking out a TV on the way to the recycling station (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

QUOTE (trackbird @ Nov 2 2004, 09:36 PM) Done. Only took 3.5 hrs to get through the line in Ohio. Damn. I heard that on the news last night. WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU GUYS DOING IN OHIO?????? Are you chiseling out ballots on stone tablets? I can't believe Ohio had THAT much more turnout than other states.... |

I can't believe Ohio had THAT much more turnout than other states.... I'm not sure, but I wish we'd have done it faster..... Ohio Results 5,478,202 counted. VS my old state West Virginia Results 745,094 counted (what a turnout???). California had almost double (rough math) the turnout, but they have lots more land to spread precints over. My line took forever, 3 others closed up while I was in line because they were done. The districting seems to be a problem here. 90% of the people in one line, 3 other lines that are almost empty. 3 voting machines per line. We, apparently, just suck......

(IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/nutkick.gif) 3 machines per line and hundreds lined up.... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) I walked up and there were two people in front of me....and about 15 booths to go into.... AND my polling place was a block away from me in a garage....and there was another polling place CLOSER TO MY HOUSE!

QUOTE (Absolut Speed @ Nov 2 2004, 03:04 PM) Hope my wife doesn't mind me writing her in for the 17th district house seat in Illinois. I couldn't bring myself to vote for either of the candidates running for that office. I'm sure she won't mind. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/thumbup.gif) I got out and voted last week. |
