Vote faster! 2004

Remember, if the voting method in use at your polling station doesn't dictate use of the equipment in the ballot booth (e.g. marking the ballot with a pen for optical scan), then you don't have to wait in line to use a booth.

At my garage polling station this morning people were filling in ballots on car trunks, recycling bins, a clothes dryer & the floor. Much speedier!

Also remember that in California you have the right to request a paper ballot if you do not wish to touch screen vote.

Blog (noun) A weblog or similar brief journal usually containing links and commentary thereon. Term coined by Peter Merholz.
Visit Typepad or Blogger to start your own. (I began with hand coding, then switched to Blogger when it first became available, then to Movable Type when I wanted more control over my weblog and to have it hosted at a place of my choosing (Hurricane Electric). Now I use Typepad, built by the same folks who made Movable Type and I love it).
