Horsecrap.

It STILL does NOT absolve ANYONE from their responisbility of making sure they have voted correctly.

If you even SUSPECTED that you've made a mistake why would you then turn the card in and cry about it later?

this all sounds way too complicated for you, just leave the voting to the adults who take it seriously.

Why don't you just stop your rant against me, and your constant insults.

How in the world would you know if you were voting incorrectly, if all your sheet shows are holes? Answer that one.

And I ask you again since you seem incapable of grasping an obvious concept.

If you think you've voted incorrectly why would you turn it in?

The only reason I can think of is so you'd have some reason to cry about the results later.

leave it to the adults, you aren't competant enough to vote.

Move to a better community where it is easier to vote?

Deadeye:

You make a frightening good point.

California has the easiest absentee voting in the United States. Already nearly 100,000 ballots have been cast. All one needs to do to cast an absentee ballot is to ask for one. You don't need to actually be ansent. You just have to not want to vote.

If people are afraid of being disenfranchised (which I think is a dubious claim at best) just get a mail in ballot.

here absentee voting is pushed real hard. you can do it by mail or go to a courthouse and do it for something in the order of 2 weeks prior to the election. part of the reasoning was to let people who say tuesdays are too hard to vote on vote early. which is fine, but they push it hard even on saturday votes. btw, if you have to have a working knowlage of the english language to become a naturalized citizen, why do we need the ballot in spanish? (or any other language for that matter) i use naturalized citizen because there is no excuse for someone born here to not understand english.

Scantron? Like the tests we tok in high school? Welcome to the 80's!

You know better! We have had this conversation before. Again find a foolproof way to vote and I guarantee you a better fool will find a way to goof it up!

if reading is difficult for someone, then all forms of voting are going to be difficult. i have just a tad more than a high school diploma and i have never once struggled with a ballot. the people have the ability to change their voting system if they see the need. they could also remember you dont get a prize for being the fastest voter. slowing down and actually reading the ballot might, just might, make some difference. and yes, the ability to read is the sole property of republicans so keep your dirty liberal democrat hands off.

Ugh.

The problem is that sometimes things just aren't equal everywhere. Think of the inpracticality of every district in every state having to have the exact same stuff before an election is to happen. Since election equipment is handeled by the municipalities it isn't possible. Some municipalities do things differently, and there's not much we can do about it.

Again the insults but that is ok.

How would you know you voted incorrectly, you might have thought you voted correctly come to find out you did not.

It all comes down to paying attention, watching what you're doing, and putting in the effort.

Are the older methods more prone to failure then some of the newer methods? Sure. Does that mean they don't work? No, of course not.

How do you know you voted incorrectly? Because the Democrats said so? The punch cards that I have used have holes that line them up. If you put the card in like the directions say, its impossible to screw it up. I would imagine most of them are this way. And the reason the ballots don't say who you voted for is so you can keep your votes private.
Personally I couldn't care one way or the other what happens. I doubt that Davis is the reason for California's problems, and even if he is to blame, he couldn't have done it by himself, so then they need to go ahead and recall the rest of California's congress. Oh wait, they already do that, its called elections.

The appeals court reversed itself.

I am suprised to say the least, but very impressed.
