Who's Voted Early?
If you are an American and eligible to vote early/absentee in your state, have you done so yet?
I voted last Tuesday, October 21st. It was simple except there were so many state and local elections on top of the Presidential elections. I was the 4801st voter at my polling station, the fifth day of early voting in North Carolina. |

Re: Who's Voted Early?
Not voting this year, at least for a presidental candidate. Will go to vote for local elections. I don't know if NYS has early voting for anything other than absentee balloting. Why is that none of you are able to go to the polls on election day itself?

I'm sorta jealous of those that can - it seems so much easier. |

Early voting is available in my State so I thought I would do it early. |

Re: Who's Voted Early?
My wife is voting for the first time (now that she is a USC) so we're going down to the elementary school and casting ballots the old fashion way, just to give her the 'full experience'.

They had the ballots here, so i got the 'full experience' today... In my little cubicle thing, all done on the computer screen. Woman next to me asking 'where is the slot to put my card in?' :lol: |
Re: Who's Voted Early?
Great for you guys. I don't have to miss work since my polls are open from 6 am until 9 pm and I have more than ample time to go and cast my ballot.
Just wondering if early votes are lost in the shuffle or are counted last? I know that absentee ballots are counted last over here. Wonder if it is the same all over the US? Our polling place is well equipped with a large number of machines and they are divided by the number of constitutents in each district (district being the street area marked out by the county). Each district is setup in the school's basement and marked by a table with volunteer workers who check your id and then find your name in the book and have you sign before issuing you a number to be programed into the machine before you vote. The last time I voted last year I counted 20 machines so rarely is there more than a 2 or 3 minute wait for a voting machine. |

I voted by absentee ballot - we don't have early voting.
