Got my little lame-ass sticker and everything.
6AM eastern time. I went in at 6:05, was done by 6:06. (Paper is actually faster than those old broken computers).
Probably the first person on this forum full of neckbeards.

Check in if you have completed your voting process. You are NOT obligated to share how you voted, in fact its probably not recommended in this particular thread.
 
Voted two weeks ago. Thought I was going to save time by doing it early and during work hours, instead I got directed to the wrong place by Google and ended up waiting in line at the mall for 30 minutes. Oh well, still wasn't too bad.
 
We voted last week and dropped the ballots off last night... 🙂

We voted straight Democrat this time and voted to give vets 1.5% of the lottery proceeds, allow state colleges to invest, against the tax on everything and against both local (county/city) marijuana taxes (get the state to cut that 25% a bit first and we'll talk!).

Whats his position on cabbage subsidies?

It's a her. Get with the times you privileged chauvinist! But to address the question she tells me that cabbage is used worldwide in many cultures. She would support using US technology to produce better cabbage while being sensitive to the environment and ecology and work towards favorable trade agreements to open markets where things like sauerkraut are virtually unknown. By such means subsidies can be gradually curtailed as profits increase.

Is this a common thing? Sounds kinda shady to me. What happens when they make a bad investment or the market goes to crap? State colleges (and other public services) seem like an area where stability beats a little extra $$$ during good years.

In 2013 the Legislature passed a bill that allowed public universities to manage their finances, including investing in equities for risk management, but a provision in the State Constitution may prevent them from investing in equities. This is a Constitutional change we are voting on to allow that. We also voted against another proposed Constitutional change to allow judges to stay on past the age of 75.

Nope, let the fresh blood in and get the old duffers out to pasture.
 
We had 4 district judges to vote for. I don't know any of them and I absolutely refuse to vote for judges. Until there is an amendment to state constitution to eliminate elections for judgeships, I will sit out.

But I did write in James Joyce, Samuel Beckett, Sylvia Plath, and Lex Luthor for those seats.
 
I voted too as soon as the polls opened. In every position besides the presidency, candidates were running unopposed so I didn't vote for any of them. Other than that we had four ballot propositions to choose from here in MA, which I voted no/no/yes/yes on (not going to bother listing them)

I had that problem there too and that's a far worse problem IMO than any fraud. One choice? No one seems to find a problem with it though. Election fraud, voter id? Pretty minor when you have one lord to choose from regardless.

That's what happens when districts get gerrymandered into oblivion. People don't even waste time or money running in races they can't win. Hopefully you support redistricting by impartial committees.
 
I waited in a 45 minute line, and found that those bastards in town hall still had my old address in the voter rolls.

It's an awful amount of trouble for what amounts to a protest vote in a state that has reliably voted Democrat for the past 20+ years.
