"I Voted"
Where you live ... do you get those little stickers that you can stick on your clothes to tell others that you've done your civic duty ...
Here's some that may just catch their eyes ...

dicksbro,
No, but what was surprising and great to see - were the lines! I have not seen such a turnout in many years. Very encouraging indeed!

I voted at (approx) 9:30 this morning.I was surprised,& dissappointed (a little),
that with everything,that I heard about voter fraud,they didn't even check my
I.D. I purposely brought my operators license,etc.,to prove who I was.My last
name,is Ahern.There was another male Ahern registered.The woman almost
checked off,the other name.It was the wrong one!I told her that my first name,was Thomas.She checked it & that was it.No middle initial,address,ID,
or anything.I thought that it was kind of sloppy.Fraud?My real name could have been Osama. Irish

Wow Irish I am shocked to hear that.
Here in Florida I had to have my picture ID with current address. I didn't have to have my voters card but did have to answer a couple of questions pertaining to my personal info.

I voted with ease, showed my voter card, remarked that my address was current, showed my picture id, and then had to sign a sheet as well that had my name written on it. They are sticklers with the stickers though. I tried to take one before I completed my ballot and was scolded and told I would need to wait until I cast my ballot and then I would be given one!

Oh, one more thing... on my way back from the university today there were two men set up on the side of a very busy road with a very large sign with BUSH on it, the tailgate of one of the trucks was removed and had BUSH on it as well and was propped up. I found this really funny... just the pun of it... They had a third sign that said, "Flush the Johns". The two older gentleman appeared to be having a great time waving at the cars passing by, and doing what they believed to be their civil duty for the election.

That's the oldest trick in the book...see a hot lady in line and tell her that she can't vote until she tells you all kinds of personal stuff!
"Ok, now all I need is your bra size, favorite sexual position and a two minute film of you pleasuring yourself...and you can move on to the voting machines."
