I love my OCR ballots and don't understand how any place would choose touchscreens instead. Instant count at the time you vote AND there's a big fat non-chaddy piece of cardstock in case it comes to that! What's not to like?
Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Well, aside from less opportunities to suppress the vote, of course. But if you're at least pretending to play fair!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I want OCR ballots and dyed fingers once you've voted. Low Tech awesomesauce.

I should have taken a picture of my ballot since it didn't get scanned in my presence.

I have been drinking iced tea all day in order to stay up late to watch results. Watch and post here right?!?! If anyone wants to facetime or IM on fb give me a holler. I WILL BE WIRED! I may have to streak all the threads again.

What time will precincts start reporting in? Oh, not for a while yet, I forgot all y'all changed time on me.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I can't vote for another two hours. Feh.

Board time is the only way I'm reliably be able to figure out what the hell day & time it is over there.
And it will have to be my delayed blow-by-blow!
Less than 4 hours until a shower. And I don't look bad at all! I feel fairly gross, though.

Kentucky and Indiana polls close in ~10 minutes. A bunch more start reporting an hour after that.

Thrive to spite them
So due to the way Facebook links common keywords together I have (under Most Recent) one of my former co workers (who is in Florida) posting a picture of her voting and Thumbs up for Romney
Directly under that picture is DavidS's wall post about how Obama could lose Florida and other key states and still win.
It almost looks like DavidS is replying to the thumbs up post. Which he's not but I had to do a double take.
