Which state are you in?
I'm going to leave work early to vote...I'd hate to get there an hour before it closes and be unable to vote because I'm still in line.

20 minutes. Was even early to work.

I applied for my voter's card in July at my new place and haven't received it since. So I can't vote.



Posted by SagithehunterDafuq is a voter's card?

Posted by MiZLeoPosted by rockyroadicecreamIt's the card you get when you register. They only looked at mine cause I went to a place with 2 districts voting in the same place, but really all they did was use my license to validate who I was.Posted by SagithehunterDafuq is a voter's card?

Posted by MiZLeoYeah, I dunno wtf they're talking about. I just checked and I'm not seeing any state that prevents people from voting if they don't have their "voter card." Once you're registered, you're in the system. Worst case, they just need another form of photo ID like a license.Posted by rockyroadicecreamIt's the card you get when you register.

Hmm..High voter turnout generally means Dems win by a large margin. We'll see tonight.


Posted by Deedee86Mine doesn't either. In the primary election, I swapped out my mail in ballot for a Dem ballot and all they did was ask for my name and address. They only ask for ID if there are verification problems or if you registered via mail or internet. Registration usually goes through the DMV so it's kind of an automatic ID situation anyway.Posted by MiZLeoPosted by rockyroadicecreamIt's the card you get when you register.

NY must be one of the rare states that don't ask for any sort of id at all. They just ask my name. I have even helped them find it in the book before.

Posted by Deedee86Yeah, I mean nationwide. I think the black and hispanic vote is historically at a high for this election, which will swing towards hillary.Posted by rabidtalker

Depends on the district. This area is heavy republican and very anti Clinton . I'm willing to bet that 75-80% were not for Hillary (not necessarily Trump though). NYC usually carries the vote so it never really matters. I'm wondering if NY may end up closer than expected.

Posted by Feral_doeThey send out mail in ballots uber early. I think I got mine at the beginning of October.Posted by rockyroadicecreamI'll ask him tomorrow how she voted. All she says is if Trump wins she's never going back 😛Posted by Feral_doeProbably mail in ballots

I am in Indiana.
I voted at about 11:30am.
I didn't wait in line at all.
I was #104

Posted by rockyroadicecreamhaha, I have a friend in California who texted me how thick the booklet of props is. Fucking hell it looked like a textbook-in-training. 😱Posted by Deedee86Nothing like chili and brownies in the morning....Posted by AfternoonDelights22

My voting location changed from a Catholic church to an elementary school this time.
I always thought voting in a Catholic church was weird.

Posted by HareWe have like 10. I wanted to gouge my eyes out. My ballot was two pages, front and back.
Luckily we only had two props...
1 NRA sponsored prop to unnecessarily make hunting and fishing a "constitutional" right (total bullshit and that's coming from an outdoorsman)
And
1 Transit bill to raise taxes to "improve" our bus system....because nothing works better than throwing more taxpayer money at a service there is no demand for.
It was easy to vote no on both.

Posted by fugu2I don't know why she was so surprised. The voter guides are usually about that thick, give or take. It's bilingual, so it's technically half the size always haha.Posted by rockyroadicecreamhaha, I have a friend in California who texted me how thick the booklet of props is.

you could be kept from voting if you do not bring a document with your current address to the polls that meets the requirements of the state of your residence. Most states permit another government ID, paycheck, utility bill or bank statement, but some have more stringent requirements. Therefore if your current address does not match your driver’s license, you should do one of two things:
•Register at your new address and check the ID and proof of residency requirements here or with your Secretary of State’s office. You may need to get a new driver’s license.
•Register at your home/parents’ address and vote by absentee ballot

Do you have a license? Does it have the current address? If not, bring a utility bill with you.
What state do you live in?

Posted by Deedee86It also only applies to early voting. Republicans usually turn out on election day, and often because of heavy Dem early voting, they have votes to make up. This time dem turnout is quite a bit lower than 2012.Posted by rabidtalker

Posted by BuffaloBills28The audacity...
I didn't. I'm in Canada, and don't care about Beavis or Butthead.


Posted by rockyroadicecreamIsn't it too late to mail in your vote?
Haven't been yet (still reading through the 58239053 props jfc). I'm not all that worried about lines. I have a mail in ballot. I just drop it off and walk out. I am curious to see what the voter turnout will be though.
