I'm waiting until the last day to vote. I want to gather in as much information as possible. I'm now 99.99% sure I've voting for Obama but why vote before the respective campaigns end? I don't see myself changing my mind but who knows what could happen between now and then.
Voting now, IMO, is like leaving a Spurs game with the Spurs up 15 points with five minutes to go in the fourth . . .
John McCain going to go on a McGrady like tear in the 4th?
Voted.
No lines, no hurry....absentee ballot baby!
There is nothing you're going to learn about either candidate 15 days from now that you don't already know if you're paying any attention to what's going on. This isn't sports.
So what?
I figure out who I'm voting for, but I don't turn my mail-in ballot until election day, then I drive it to the Elections office. I do it this way because I don't trust the people running the system. I also never, I repeat, never, leave a selection blank. I often check "OTHER" and write in "None of the Above." Leaving a selection blank just leaves it open for en election worker to vote for you.
Did you by chance register other than democrat and register through ACORN? I'll bet they lost your information.I haven't gotten my &$#@ing voter registration card in the mail yet
Soon....
You don't need the card. Just take your license with you and you're golden.I haven't gotten my &$#@ing voter registration card in the mail yet
I'm going to try and make it to the courthouse this week to vote. I imagine election day will be a zoo and I'd like to able to be at home watching the coverage as the day goes on.
My 18th birthday is on January so I miss voting by two months.
Regardless I'll still vote at my school mock elections.
absentee ballot mailed this morning.
Official numbers from Bexar County today: 29,119.
Nearly double that of the first day of early voting in the '04 general election.
I'll be early voting this week, hopefully to have some of the larger crowds dying out.
I went to vote yesterday and there was a couple in front of me (The guy was about 30 and the girl looked 40). The guy leaned over to his girlfriend and said "Who do I vote for?" She said "Vote a straight republican ticket." She then stood there with him and helped him vote at the booth to make sure he voted for who she wanted him to.
Just an observation I made yesterday.
I voted this morning.
I was going to vote yesterday, but the line was ridiculous.
There wasn't much of a line today.
True that.
I agree with you.
I keep hoping one of the candidates will act in a way that I could feel proud and happy about voting for him.
I am still in the "must choose the lesser of two evils" camp.
I'm 99.9% sure that I don't like either candidate. And, I'm 99.9% sure that neither candidate will be able to implement their planned policies (thank God), given the current economic conditions. Both candidates are too liberal. Both candidates have a VP selection that I don't like. One VP is too inexperienced, and the other has foreign policy experience, but that experience wasn't positive (voted against Gulf War? WTF?).
So, I'm somewhat leaning toward Obama. But, I feel as good about that decision as I do about getting a vasectomy. I know I have to do it, but I don't like the idea of a knife being anywhere near my balls.
I do not trust Senator Obama at all. I think he is dangerous.
Can I prove that he is? No.
But that is what concerns me. I think Senator Obama has ulterior motives and is such a good liar that he will fool the majority of the world before being finally found out.
That said, there would be no one more happier than myself if I were proven wrong. I just don't expect to be.
Senator McCain has not impressed me as a candidate either, but is the least disappointing choice.
I hope Senator McCain will govern in a way that I can look back and in retrospect be pleased I voted for him.
If nothing else, at least McCain is pro life, which is one thing I certainly support.
I respect your opinion but I have a couple of questions. What do you think those motives are and what gave you the idea he was dangerous?
I'm asking because I don't get the feeling he is dangerous at all and I'm not even a supporter. I understand the inexperienced camp, and that is a legit concern, but I can't imagine a more unqualified person than we have currently. I just wonder where the danger comes into play. Is there some underlying feeling that he's trying to achieve some master plan of bringing the NWO or that he will turn secrets over to terrorist?
Its just a point of curiosity for me because I have had similar conversations with my friends about this point.
I'm going to rant here for a second and you may get some flak Angel but its nothing personal.
I am sick of the abortion issue being such a major decider in people's presidential vote. Almost everyone I talked to this weekend who was undecided but wanted to vote for Barak brought up the abortion issue. Many of them were incredibly misinformed on both candidates stances on the issue to begin with some going as far as saying at least McCain had promised to make it illegal. O Rly?
The abortion issue is completely irrelevant to a president because no president is going to be able to change it. You can go as far as to talk about possible judicial appointments but I really doubt that even many conservative judges would overturn roe v wade simply on the basis of being appointed by a Republican president. Its foolish and for me its the equivalent of voting for a president based on his shoe size.
lol Obama is dangerous? wtf.
Yes, please explain angel_luv.
