Ask not what your country can do FOR you; ask what they are about to do TO YOU!!

Oh NS, you didn't vote for Justin Burns. He's a Libertarian candidate for MSU's Board of Trustees. Maybe you should take bmw's advice and not vote on races you have no clue about.

Re: I voted thread
I'm so flabbergasted, I don't know what say, except that you proved this is really sad...

Re: I voted thread
I'm not concerned about how hotly contested it was, I'm more concerned about the lack of knowledge of what voters are voting for.
It's one thing to say I don't have enough information to make a decision on one candidate and not vote on certain race, but it another to wholesale vote based the (R) or (D).

Re: I voted thread
I skip ones I do not have any information on. You're voting blindly otherwise.
I have voted for every party at some point, except green.

Re: I voted thread
So basically NS has admitted that the only reason he voted for Hillary is because she has a (D) next to her name, and that the only reason he voted straight-ticket is because he was too lazy to do otherwise.
Congrats, NS. You've managed to prove that you are the stereotypical democrat.

Re: I voted thread
There are a number of things I won't be voting for on my ballot. I myself and I am sure most other voters have NO idea about these: MEMBER OF THE STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION, REGENT OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN, TRUSTEE OF MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY, GOVERNOR OF WAYNE STATE UNIVERSITY, among other things.

I'm not voting for either of my Ann Arbor City races. Christopher Taylor is a terrible mayor and Graydon Krapohl is a Taylor yes-man. They are the only options in my ward. At least the fifth ward has a chance to defeat a Taylor lackey.NS8401 wrote:Perhaps... but just the same I would have manually guessed otherwise...

I'm undecided about voting for Washtenaw County Sheriff and still need to do some research. Jerry Clayton is running for his third term and I voted for him the first two times. This year, his Republican challenger actually has law enforcement experience and is promising to go after the area's heroin problem. The issue I have with him is he flamed out as UM Police Chief and opened a sports memorabilia shop. He's also circulated rumors that Clayton doesn't intend to serve a full third term.
