fusion Posted November 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Your alphabet skills must be a bit rusty.http://vote.franklincountyohio.gov/voter/ballots/BALLOT_0187.pdf yeah definitely not in alphabetical order on the touch screen I saw.

wolfman Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 I live in the sticks so my wait was pretty short. I didn't notice where Obama/McCain were at on my ballot? Makes sense they would separate them to help prevent people from screwing up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpinalFusion Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Got to the polls as soon as they opened and there was already a short line. Took forever because 4 out of the 10 machines broke before I got to them!!A LOT of people were just filling out the paper ballots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fonzie Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 The only thing I found a tad hinky was that McCain's name was at the top of the screen and Obama's at the bottom with 5 or 6 in between in that first column.And you guys think I'm conspiracy oriented??? Looked like it was alphabetical to me Jeremi.....McCain, Nader, Obama....some others I can't remember 'cause I've never heard of them beforeWent about 10:30 here....Walked right up to the ballot, no wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kawi kid Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 just fininshed............ they should have an express line for the people that know wtf is going on when you get in there thats for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fonzie Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 That's kind of why it would be an issue. If they intentionally listed one candidate at the top and the other at the bottom it could cause problems for some voters. I think we've determined though it's not an issue.As motivated as BO's supporters are, I don't think they're accidentally gonna vote for McCain, just because he's on the top some places Jeremi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fusion Posted November 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 As motivated as BO's supporters are, I don't think they're accidentally gonna vote for McCain, just because he's on the top some places JeremiI didn't say only McCain at the top, I said one over the other. Mine was McCain at the top w/Obama at the bottom of the screen and in post #4 CBRJess posted her's the other way around. Flounder put to rest the flipping of candidates between top and bottom when he posted both McCain and Obama were closer to the middle on his.

gsxrnurse Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Absentee ballots are the greatest. I waited in line for a couple of hours for the last election and don't plan on doing that again, even though I don't get the "I voted" sticker to wear to get free stuff.
