I think they are allowed to use pencils

Sid, I think it's like Dawn said, they are allowed to use pencils.....or is it like on Little House On The Prarie...."Ok kids, get out your slates now".

No, honestly Sid, I'm not sure, but I think they just vote the same as the rest of us. I'll have to see what I can find out. I never really have that a thought.

I just researched a little. While I did not see anything about the method they use to vote, the general consensus is that they usually do not vote.

I wouldn't doubt that the GOP were contacting them, as it says there.

Heck... here in PA, then even called for my dog... and STILL lost big.
I can't BELIEVE the number of spam calls I got yesterday from them.
They totally abused voters with their automated calls, IMHO.

Even though we have a "Do Not Call" list (and I'm on it), it specifically allows political calls, as you see in our AG's website here.

BTW... guess the party affiliation of that Attorney General.

I got plenty of calls from both sides since I live in a bi-partisan home well, formerly bi-partisan. My husband and I voted together yesterday. I usually make him go on his own, but since he finally came around to my side, I drove him there....I hope he was telling the truth about his intentions

Ah, the joy of an unlisted number. I received no calls. I also now have a new State Senator that lives across the street from me!

[compirate]

What we need are the home numbers of all the people running for office.

"Hello, I'm calling to let you know I voted! Have a nice day!"

A few 1,000,000 of those each should do it!

And yes, I voted absentee!

You'd only get admin types answering the phones if that, or answer machines. What we need to do is vote against anyone that calls and bugs you..

Must be nice, I have signed up for 7 different unlisted numbers in my life. Pay $3 for them NOT to list it... out of those 7, I recieved at least 3 telemarketting calls within the first 7 days on 5 of them. the other two was slammed with calls within 3weeks... and It wasn't due to a former listing either... I answered and everytime, " Hello Mr. Brazz-ine? this is blah, blah, calling" to sell me crap... Its gotten to the place where we don't even have a home phone. we just use cell phones...

if your gonna bug me, at least pronounce my name and town right, geesh!!! Brass- een. (Brassine) and Lo-go-tee (Loogootee)

Isn't it interesting there were no complaints in this election about voting irregularities??? First time in a few.

Gee, Don... surely you're NOT suggesting... that it's because of the RESULTS???

Check out the Movie The Devils Playground Its a documentary. I just bought it last week its all about the Amish and how when they turn 16 they are sent (RumSpringa)out into the world (The Devils Playground) to see what its like and to decide if that is the life they want or return to being Amish.
