Were there any referendums on your ballot? There's always like 20 local referendums that the people in my voting district have to vote on. Half of the time I don't even know what the hell they are.

There's only three in GA:

Jack Kingston's up for reelection for his seat in the HOR. I've always despised that idiot, but I really don't like his competition either. I think Jack's the lesser of two evils here.

There's a mess of state and local people up for election/reelection on my ballot. A lot of these people are running unopposed. My county sheriff is up for reelection. He's actually a friend of my family, so I have to vote for him. Besides, his competition is a former lacky of the corrupt sheriff that he replaced. So I sincerely doubt anyone's gonna vote for anybody except the current sheriff.

And surprise, surprise! There are only two proposed GA constitutional amendments this time around. I gotta look into those.

Looks like that's it for me.

Did your move change any of your state or local level districts?

[Teh One Who Knocks]

:-k

Did your move change any of your state or local level districts?

If it did, they sent me the correct ballot for it because I got my address change in before the ballot went out in the mail. It came to my new address without a forwarding label. I don't think the move changed anything anyway though, it was not a far move, even though I changed the suburb I live in.

[DemonGeminiX]

Cool deal. I'm in an area that if I move to another suburb, everything changes.

[Teh One Who Knocks]

Yeah, if I would have moved across the city I would most like have changed congressional districts, but the new house was only about a mile away from the apartment I lived in. I did change cities like I said, but that was it. There was nothing local on the ballot this year...just some county issues and I didn't change counties.

There were 3 proposed changes to the state constitution on the ballot, I voted against all three.

[DemonGeminiX]

Yeah, I'm not sure about the two I'm gonna have to vote for. I have to go read the bills. I just don't feel like doing it right now. There's a whole mess of adverts around town telling people to vote no on one of them, the one about charter schools. The other one, something about leasing out real estate, I just found out about last night when I did a search for the actual ballot at the county website to see what was gonna be on it.

[Teh One Who Knocks]

I just don't like amending the constitution without good reason. 8 years ago there was a proposal to add a minimum wage amendment to the constitution....and it passed :|

Shit like that doesn't belong in the constitution.

Well I guess if I look at it from your point of view, then I should vote no on both of them, because technically, shit like the junk I'm being asked to vote on shouldn't be in the constitution either.

That's just my take on it....I think the stuff that's in the constitution should be sort of important, not simply something that someone thinks is a "good idea" at the time. That's what laws are for.

I've sat here and listened to a handful of Americans crucify Obama for 4 years. It started exactly 80 days after he was sworn in...the guy could do no right even in the early months :lol:

I did some research, read about how he was given funds to help staunch the bloodflow so to speak, (and IMO it could of worked) and he totally mismanaged the arrangement.


Now, here we go again :cheerlead:

[DemonGeminiX]

I gave him a chance and was completely on his side at the beginning. He let me down. He was more of a product, a brand, sold to the people than a President.

I havent spoken with a *single* obama voter who could really articulate why they're voting for him. One person even came out with "well, I dont trust romney." :lol: Really? So that means you trust Obama? "well, no" So what's the difference? "I dont know, I just think Romney will take this country in the wrong direction." And Obama hasnt? "Well...he hasnt really"...devil we know somethinsomethin...

fkn idiots. I guess if you dont give a shit how the country goes and you dont care how much the gov spends vs takes in, if you want wall street to stay inflated until we experience hyperinflation, by all means, vote for the fker. Just dont be surprised when 4 more years has 4 times the detrimental effect of the last 4.

Votes are tallied electronically with the numbers listed on reports that are given to precinct committeemen at the pollsites. States know which precincts count the most and can tell if one party/candidate has enough of a lead that the opponent cannot catch up. While not 100% foolproof they can be calculated fairly quickly.

It does crack me up how yahoo can't seem to get current projections while independent reports have no problem whatsoever. Wonder if that has anything to do with Romney being ahead :-k

This isn't voter fraud. This is a shift in identity and ideology. This is a younger generation and a rising population of minorities that don't believe in "Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country." They don't believe in effort or personal achievement. They don't believe in hard work and dedication. They believe in getting whatever they can from whereever they can. They believe that the government should take care of them. The black people aren't going to vote for a white guy, no matter what. "The white guy's just gonna take care of his white buddies and we ain't gonna get shit. I wanna get me mine". This is what it is now. People want stuff. They don't want pride, they don't want achievements... they want stuff and they don't care how it comes to them as long as it's free to them. These aren't chess players. They can't think 5 moves ahead. They can't see cause and effect. They can't see consequence. And they outnumber the rest of us who can.

"The white guy's just gonna take care of his white buddies and we ain't gonna get shit. I wanna get me mine". This is what it is now. People want stuff. They don't want pride, they don't want achievements... they want stuff and they don't care how it comes to them as long as it's free to them. These aren't chess players. They can't think 5 moves ahead. They can't see cause and effect. They can't see consequence. And they outnumber the rest of us who can.

That was awesomely put sir.

much as I hate to say the people with their hands out are outnumbering those of us who are productive, you appear to be correct dgx. its just one sad fucking day for the country.

This isn't voter fraud. This is a shift in identity and ideology. This is a younger generation and a rising population of minorities that don't believe in "Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country." They don't believe in effort or personal achievement. They don't believe in hard work and dedication. They believe in getting whatever they can from whereever they can. They believe that the government should take care of them. The black people aren't going to vote for a white guy, no matter what.

One (major) reason to abandon/reform the electoral college....the democrat already has New York and California in the bag, as well as most of New England. Nothing like having a 100+ count of electoral votes in the bag before the election even starts.

To be honest, I think the cold up there would kill me. But I swear, they got some fine looking women up there.

Where I live it's like Seattle WA with less rain and snow. Not all of Canada is cold. Don't believe the hype! If it's below zero here, it's only for a week or so.


Nah, we'll just keep printing our own money so we can be like Zimbabwe

Isn't America too big to go down that road? They'll just devalue your goods, and give you 500ml when you used to have 600ml containers for the same price. It'll be less overt. That and everything will be made in China.

Oh....sorry that's already happening.

Trump's Tweet (directed at Obama winning) was tantamount to treason by American law. A charge that can assign more years in jail than murder. He's an asshat but he's not exempt from written threats against the government.

Raise the voting age to 40 (ie the people who have lived enough life to start making wise choices) and see what happens in this election.

Have to hand it to Obama...he became a celebrity and this country worships their celebrities.

Im not full of hate, I just play it on the interwebs

[Hal-9000]

from an outsiders point of view (speaking for a few countries here)

I'll preface with - Americans are my brothers, they always will be. I poke fun, I mention certain stereotypes, but it doesn't change how intricately meshed our two countries are. Same clothes, same music, same cultural references, same ideals for the most part. And I wouldn't want that to ever change.

It appears to me that most Americans here... enjoy a good standard of living, have decent jobs and a nice place to live. So it's hard for us folks who don't live there to understand where all the vitriol and frothing and anger comes from after your leader is elected. I've read small amounts of how Obama mismanaged funds and jobs and I do agree with most of it.

But the bottom line is and should be - Has your personal standard of living suffered because of your elected official(s)? Again I don't know, this is merely an observation. I won't endorse either the Democrats or the Republicans...because I'm not trying to survive in the environment.

Without posting reams of charts and graphs can someone, anyone....tell me from a ground floor level how your president has negatively impacted your life? I am truly interested in the reason for all of the hate because it seems disproportionate to the lifestyles (I think) you lead. Thanks :thumbsup:

[FBD]

mismanaged funds/DoE loans, end run around constitution on obamacare, extrajudicial killing, vicious EPA, ignoring judges with regard to the illegal halting of enrgy development, DoJ that is completely corrupt and incompetent, the appointing of SCOTUS justices that do not follow the constitution...where to start. you cant say he's anti war, you cant say he follows the constitution, you cant say they care about borrowing more and more and more money to finance bigger and larger government, they point the finger at "rich people" when the issue is we have a government gone wild with credit cards, and the deficits wind up impacting each and every one of us.

the obama admin is an assault on america, bro.
