My point in posting this is the same as Kerry's--not to quibble about past elections, but to work towards correcting the problems of future elections.

Maybe blue ink?

(edit for subject line change as apparently only SEX and WICKED get people's attention!)

I thought this thread was about Fyero and Boq finally admitting their love for one another.

You got me jrb! I probably would not have clicked on this thread if the the title reflected the content. I'm just a crazed fan girl at heart!

it's amazing how important an issue this is and how swept under the rug it is.
Much more important to make legislation hand-tying the House Ethics Committee. That's worthwhile stuff.
Oh, yeah, and eliminating the filibuster.

well the views doubled in less than 5 minutes!

Seemed as if people on this board care more about how well Iraq's elections run than our own.

I live in one of the areas where Republicans were 'making sure' that all the voters were registered properly before they were allowed to vote. What's funny is I had just moved, had never voted in the district I was voting in and had registered very close to the registration deadline, not to mention that I hadn't changed my driver's license to reflect my new address. But, I'm a tall, blonde haired white guy who wears a white shirt and tie to work. I wasn't checked. Apparently I didn't meet the one REALLY important criteria to be bothered before voting in Ohio.

"Kerry also cited examples Sunday of how people were duped into not voting.
'Leaflets are handed out saying Democrats vote on Wednesday, Republicans vote on Tuesday. People are told in telephone calls that if you've ever had a parking ticket, you're not allowed to vote,' he said."

Yes it is bad that people would stoop to doing such things to keep people from voting, but seriously, Separate voting days for Republicans and Democrats? So does that mean Greens, Socialists, etc can only vote absentee? I wonder if I really want these people to be voting.

yoda--I know what you mean, but a lot of Americans are very uneducated about these things.

That doesn't change the fact that they pay their taxes and have the right to exercise their right to vote. They just need to be educated better about the process. And when they are bombarded with the other false information, I'm sure it creates confusion--confusion that we know better than to fall for.

You are correct. No more making fun of the undereducated voting public, at least they paid enough attention to get confused.
I do think that election day should be a national holiday and I lean towards the idea of making voting manditory at least then people might pay some attention.

You know--I think if Jury Duty is required--voting should be. If a person doesn't want to vote, they merely have to show up and select "no vote" or something like that. Who knows? But we def need a uniform system with a paper trail.

I thought this was about "wicked sex", and I was gonna complain about how I wasn't getting any. But, this isn't that thread......

I allow any of you to threadjack for a delicious (but clean) conversation about wicked sex (or lack of) as long as you take a look at the article and think for a second about this problem.

I haven't had wicked sex in a few months--THAT'S what having a boyfriend does for you!! lol

Well I'm married, no wicked sex for me. But that's why I have so much energy and passion to pour into these sorts of political issues.
