How Was Your Voting Experience

Post by Gil Dobie »

30 people in line for A-R, nobody in my line for S-Z. Took about 10 minutes.

Voted early, took about 15 minutes from when I walked in the door. Only had to wait a bit for the person in front of me to run their ballot through the machine.

No muss, no fuss. Will be happy when my mailbox quit's filling up with political ads, the paper they use barely works as a fire starter.

Pretty easy for me. I was 5 minutes early, but once the polls opened it was 20 minutes to walk out. The church we voted at has 6 voting stations and one lady with a laptop scanning ID's and another lady handling the ledger signing. I live in a pretty densely populated area of town so it's likely one of the busier polls in town. Me on the right below:

New location for me. I think the Joos are doing a renovation so I had to go to a new location.
Went at 9:00. Never had to wait. I always use a paper ballot. Thanked the people volunteering.
Shot down Props for tax increase for Zoo and Schools, and voted yes for 50% of floor space at casinos to be non-smoking. Also yes for medical weed at 15% tax and no at 4% tax.
Also gave a dirty look at woman nn pink jacket posting Dem signs outside building.

No problem voting here. Went right before 8AM (polls in PA open at 7AM). Was voter #138 for the polling place, only had to wait for one person to sign the voting book. Pretty easy ballot, only 5 races (governor, Senator, House of Rep, State Senate, and State House). Went with 3 Dems, 1 GOP, and 1 Libertarian (couldn't stomach voting for either Dem or GOP in that race - US Senate). Didn't bring the kids this time because I was trying to get to work and, with schools off today, not all of the kids were even up. Tough life.

The line at my kitchen table to vote was very quick.

I voted in a school, and school was in session.

Concealed carry at the polls, voted straight Republican even though the choices I had were absolute human garbage it was better than the socialist cunts on the D side.

Fully expect to be met with a snarky comment from the volunteer at my polling station, like every other year. I'm the token Republican in my hood.

Kind of mumble "fuck you for your service" with your hand over your mouth and cough and see what happens. That always makes me feel better around twats.

Voting went quickly. My precinct is pretty much my neighborhood and 2 apartment complexes. so I was 1 of about maybe 100 people that’ll likely vote. Was at a Church...not sure the denomination.

Voted for a few Rs and Ds. Sorry ASU, I couldn’t vote for McMaster.


Voted “no” to amend the S.C. constitution making the Superintendent of Education an appointee instead of the current elected position.

Seems like some of you were itching for confrontation.

Me: Voted 15 minutes after polls opened in my small rural farming community. Republicans outnumber Democrats 2-1. Everyone was pleasant & efficient... no big drama here.

Short Line, but had to endure the gauntlet of campaigners/sign holders just outside the 75' limit.

You have better eyes than me. All I saw were several variations of, "it was uneventful and I was in and out in 10 minutes."

Yup. By registering for the minority party, I"m really asking for it. :roll:

And I would expect your experience to be pleasant and efficient... you're in a red area. :lol:

Voted weeks ago. Turnout seemed really good. Didn't see anyone attempting to connect a laptop to the voting machine or attempt to fiddle with the electronic ballot cards....
