I know you're not suggesting voter fraud!!! ;)
LOL... that was my thought as well Hausfrau!
Often? Yikes! :)
No, when I voted this morning I did ask if I could vote early AND often but they said no, the electronic voting prevents that sort of thing.
If it causes concern I suppose I should change the title.
We voted today, too. Now to sit back and hope it works. Also hope that everything hangs together until we have a real change of leadership.
Oh please don't change the title!! A chuckle is a good thing in times like these.
I think anybody who actually takes time to learn something about the candidates (other than from mainstream media) should get extra votes to negate those done by people who simply pick anybody.
Yes, I KNOW that's an unpopular idea - everybody gets a vote - but I've gotta tell ya... I'm not so sure the proverbial "EVERYBODY" has earned their right to vote!!! :)
OK Meadowlark - no changes. :-)
I voted last week. I'd like to vote often too.
I voted today as well. Just once, but I have to agree with Meadowlark.
Go, you! :-D
I'll be doing the early voting thing next week.
We'll be voting next week.
Meadowlark for President! ;-)
Yeah, 'cause a crazy nearly-anarchist, gin-drinking, former Marine, nose-ring wearing hippie wanna-be should ALWAYS be the number one choice! :)
Not that any of the other choices are actually going to be any better :(

kind of explains how I'm feeling.
those sound like pretty good qualifications to me - I'd feel better than 'er some of the major candidates.
