Vote the SHIT out of this election

It's that time of year
when we (americans) get ballots in the mail and you fill that fucker out and mail it and then a few weeks later some shit maybe happens
or maybe you go to a booth and pull a lever/punch a card/draw a line/flush a toilet, we ain't picky
let's talk about shit like BALLOT MEASURES and how they almost always sound pretty tits until you actually look into them and everything goes right to shit
now you may point out that this is a stupid time in the election cycle to talk politics since it's a year where nothing major is happening
this was deliberate
since I find local politics to be infinitely more interesting (and incrementally less frustrating) than national politics
so tell me, folks, about the local douchebags who are fucking things up and the rockstars who try to fix it

I need to fill out my ballot and crap.
Like, mail it in, too.
Fuck.
for years, the county auditor (the person whose office handles voter registration and whatnot) in the county I lived in was named Bob Terwilliger
totally serious
he was very effective
Tonkka, sir
how do you, as a barman, feel about this year's liquor initiative
Independents: Encouraging Voter Apathy Since Who Gives Two Shits, Where Is My Beer?
Yep.
the republicans know that when more people vote it's always bad for the GOP
so they'd couch the debate in horseshit personal freedom rhetoric
but yes, it would be nice
I voted to privatize liquor the last time around.
Going to vote for it again.
It's annoying as all hell. Wish we could choose to vote like America.
Of course I am not a fan of voting for anything, so my thoughts wont apply to most people.
I did as well, last time
this time, though, the suggested legislation has some pretty severe shortcomings
not the least of which is the fact that even in the pro-campaign's own documentation they admit that liquor will cost more and give the state less revenue
it's basically a lose-lose
except that it would be more convenient to buy
It is not hard to make an invalid vote!
It's called Voting NDP.
This has been your Canadian political joke.
what happens if you just choose not to vote?
My go to is Emperor Palpatine.
Edit: If you don't physically vote you get fined. I'm not sure of the amount. But as Fuzzbutt said you can also go and write some bullshit name in so it counts as invalid.
death by snakes/spiders
same as if you do vote
well I meant in addition to that
You can't not shop up to a polling centre, take the slip of paper and go into a booth. If you don't, you get fined.
But you can show up, take your slip of paper, walk into a booth and draw smiley faces all over it. Or write the lyrics to your favourite song all over it. Of course, it would be easier to just vote, but then some people are stubborn. And stupid. Vote, for fucks sake. Democracy only works if people vote.
I usually vote properly, but one time I hated everyone so I chose Pikachu.
Yeah, but then the government would have to send ballots to everybody.
At least this is what I think happens. Also I think you can sort of just be all "No fuck off" if they try and fine you, and not pay it, and they don't do shit about it.
But seriously just go vote.
kpop appreciation station i also like to tweet some
I did not know this. I guess I have some reading to do.
I hate you.
The ones that you get when you look at ladies
Satans..... hints.....
And the number nine. Number nine. Number nine. Number nine. Number nine.
Yep. Just checked. Nothing until next year, when I will have left the state already.
