If you're ever tried by a jury, do you want to be judged by people "too stupid to get out of it"?

Or who don't want to be there? Or do want to be there?

My point was mainly about karma.

Officials say they were able to confirm that the signature on the original ballot did not match the legal voter's signature on file.

Are they idiots?

Voting machine again displays wrong choice - News-Record.com: News

Percy Bostick, 69, of Greensboro said he tried casting a vote for Democrat Kay Hagan at the Old Guilford County Courthouse, only to have the machine register Republican Thom Tillis as his choice.
“I called one of the poll workers over,” Bostick said. “She said do it again. And again, I touched the screen at the proper place for Kay Hagan, and it again reported it for Thom Tillis.”

…

On Wednesday, another voter had reported a similar problem at the Craft Recreation Center. In that case, the voter also tried selecting Hagan but saw the machine had recorded him as choosing Tillis

This is one of the better ballot methods. No chads to worry about and hard copy backup. Voters can't claim they voted for the wrong person. In AZ, if you do manage to fill in the wrong bubble the ballot is shredded on the spot and a new ballot is issued.

I used something like this, this morning in Sterling, VA.

That's been the system we've used in Chicago for, I don't know, a decade.

In PA we ised to do fill in the arrow between the candidate you want the head of an arrow

[subego]

Actually, in Chicago, we have the arrow, and not the oval, but I imagined only pedants would be interested in such details.

I feel its harder to **** up than the oval.

Obviously it'd be easier to follow the lines across if they were differentiated, but that'd turn into a partisan war about a shade of gray being more favorable or something.

You don't get to choose your own colors, because then everybody fights over who gets to be "Mr. Black"!


I agree the arrows are superior to the ovals.

They were about to hassle me about my signature not matching, but I cut them off by saying they could look at my DL if desired.

The election judge's commentary was along the lines of "we get shit if we **** this up".




Perhaps a touch less vulgar.

That's how it should work.
