How's your election going?
« on: November 04, 2008, 12:49:24 PM »
Here in Florida we no longer have 'hanging chads' - we now have 'stuck electrons' from faulty voting machines. Quiet other than that.

Went to the polls at about 10:15 this am.  Busy, but no lines.

Ne vote machines...color in the oval beside your choices then feed it into an optical reader.  Ya don't get it back but I guess they could recount them manually if needed.

We're all electronic here in Ga.
Wife and i voted about 9:30 this morning and there were no lines.
Of course, we live in a small voting precinct to start with.
Also, in a county with only around 21,000 registered voters, over 40% had already voted early over the last 3 weeks.

fingers crossed.......
"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

Voted absentee for the NC election as I recently moved, but the lines are long here in Ft. Lauderdale, and I hope for the best but expect the worst.

I think Hazerita's will be in order to celebrate or to mask the pain. Might as well go to work with a headache if BHO wins, more are sure to follow.

Either way, I'll just keep my M+P close, and go to work tomorrow,.....(The Sig556 is close too, but I'm just silly that way). ::)



Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

Came back from vacation to a fairly busy office time, so I think I'll sit down in the easy chair, you know the one ... next to the table lamp with the Bible and devotional, and clean the shotguns  ;D

That pretty well describes how it is going here.

Here in Washington State it's a mail in ballot. Sent mine last week.

Stamp for postage   .42 cents

Enough supplies for a long Election night of drinking Hazerita's    42 dollars

Not having to stand in line for 3 hours
with people that are voting for a man that will take away their Constitutional Rights     Priceless





If it's wet, sticky and not yours!! Don't Pick It Up!!!   But if you do, you gotta lick it!!

Damn ... Forgot the Hazarittas  :'(

Oh well, it's a busy work day tomorrow and a hangover would not be good.

I love waking up every morning knowing that Donald Trump is President!!
