Please Vote!
For those of you living in areas where elections will take place tomorrow, id like to urge you all to use one of our most important rights, the right to choose our leaders, November 7th will determine the fate of congress as well as many other positions within local/ statewide, and nationwide governments. Regardless of your political views, Let your voice be heard.
So Please, If you have the ability to vote, please do so... (I beg people reading this thread to refrain from starting political discussions on these forums,lets keep Chiefdelphi a cheerful and happy place where no one feels left out :) ) |
Re: Please Vote!

Re: Please Vote!
The funny thing about voting for the next presidential election is that I will be two days too young to vote for it! :( Oh well, that is what voting for next year will be for i guess.

Re: Please Vote!
[begin $.02] Yeah, I'd vote (or my parents would), but we can't, seeing as we're not citizens, but we have Green cards and can live here as long as we want (legally). I think it's stupid, in my opinion. [/end $.02]
I second the move to vote when possible. The U.S. preaches democracy, but when it comes to voting, we're not that great an example. |
Re: Please Vote!
I wish I could vote, but being underage and all, I can't. However, my friend's mother is running for village trustee where I live, so I'm kind of interested in finding out how things go.

I'm leaving now to go vote, Mr. Surampudi. :)
And I'm also going to vote for a super size fries, a cheeseburger all the way, and a large diet coke. (Voting makes me hungry...) |

Re: Please Vote!
I pushed the big red button sometime after lunch. (Well, it wasn't particularly big, but it was a flashing red light.)
Of course, none of the four big races are going my way, but there's always two years from now. |

Re: Please Vote!
I am proud to have voted yesterday.
I am also proud to say that I actually broke the electronic voting machine. Talk about something I will never forget... it ate my card and froze. It was kinda exciting. They reset it and I had to vote on another machine. I was very discouraged during my first period class when my teacher asked who voted and I was the only one to raise my hand. Don't let this happen at your schools! Bring friends with! |
Re: Please Vote!
I wish I could of voted, but I'm to young :( . I'll also be to young again next year, by about a week. I'm defiantly going to try to vote when I'm 19. Yay to all who voted.

PAPER BALLET all the way!! But oh well....... Elections are over. Democrats are taking over the house. VA race was a pretty tough. Did you guys hear about the marriage amendment? Apparently in VA, marriage amendment passed (stating that marriage is only between man and woman). So what now......Republican White House and Democratic Congress....... :ahh: At the same time Rumsfield resigns..........any particular reason ?_? Yesterday was pretty much one shocking news after another. (Not to mention situation with Brittany Spears :p ) Imad ps I don't want this to be a political battle ground now |

Something similar happening in VA right now. Votes are being recounted; I'm hoping it doesn't make its way to the court... :rolleyes: |
Re: Please Vote!
I voted! w00t!
The Perfect Blue Storm swept through Rhode Island, and Democrats took everything except for governor (which isn't so bad; he was a decent governor and we needed that after many a corruption scandal). I myself voted the Democrat ticket (for the record, I'm independent). We now have our first female Lt. Governor (and here is where I give a shout-out to our neighbors up north, Massachusetts, for electing their first African-American governor). Also, our constitutional amendment to let the Narragansett tribe build a casino (as far as I know, we're the only state that requires a constitutional amendment to let a Native American tribe build a casino even on their own land) was rejected (it was a very terrible deal, and the Narragansetts would've gotten only 5% of the profits anyway). Other than that, the ballot was prettymuch bonds for different projects (we might actually get better highway roads now :D). I have to say: I hate politcs, but I love election season. |
Re: Please Vote!
I'll say that I didn't vote. My reason? I didn't know enough about the candidates. I think everyone has the right the vote and you should use that vote if you really know what you're voting for. At the moment, I don't care about politics at all. Way too many other things going on - so here's to those who did voted yesterday, and to those who didn't vote blindly.

I'd like to congratulate everyone who voted Tuesday. It is a very important right that I believe everyone should exercise.
YEAH VOTING! :D |
Re: Please Vote!
My english teacher told us that only 40% of all registered voters in the country actually decided to vote. What does that say about fair democracy?
