I Voted

I voted at 7:30am. Jefferson County has their new publicized voting machines and system. 

There was one person voting when I entered and then it was me and 3 workers. And…. they had no record of me by address, name, date of birth, etc.

Questions like, how long have you lived at that address? 24 years.

Hmmmm…..

 I told them that I vote in every election and have been to that location for those 20+ years.

Apparently the new system lost my voter registration.

Hmmmm…..

But after about 15 minutes and the poll workers on the phone with the county clerk for several minutes, they found my registration and I got to vote. 😆

I was asked if I resided at the address on my license. I said yes and that was that. New machines worked well and were very user friendly. Even BG can figure it out.

Also, these machines…..you feed a long card into the machine before you begin voting. After you are finished voting, you can review your picks. Then you hit “place my vote”. Then the card is fed back out to you and you can read all your picks on the card. You then proceed to the exit where your card if fed into another machine for a print copy backup so the votes can be tabulated if need be. Works for me.

I would rather see what happened to tvc happen, rather than anyone voting that shouldn’t.

After I turned my card in, I told the workers that we have now gone back to the old punch cards but instead of using the stylus to punch out the corresponding tab, the computer does it for us.

 They said something like like, yep.

    • The main reason? He’s not Trump.     it worked in 2020 and it’s going to again in 2024.    Repubs: “Nuh uh!!!”
    • What the writer stated wrt crossover votes in the primary/runoff: "Covey and his supporters Paxton and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said Phelan only won because Democrats crossed over to vote in the Republican Primary for him. Paxton said Covey’s campaign identified “at least” 1,442 Democrats who voted early in Jefferson County in the primary runoff. Texas does not have party registration, but a voter’s primary voting history is public. The Covey campaign has not released its methodology behind its claim, but  This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up  by The Texan news website found that 9% of Republican voters in the March District 21 primary had voted in one of the previous four Democratic primaries. However, only 5% of that group had voted in all four previous Democratic primaries. What Phelan’s opponents did not mention is historically Democratic Jefferson County is undergoing a political transition towards the Republican party — the county judge switched his affiliation to the GOP in 2017 — so many residents have a mixed primary voting history. And Phelan’s allies in the House dismissed the idea that liberals swung the election. "I knocked on doors, hundreds and hundreds of doors, made calls for Dade,” Republican Rep. Jeff Leach, R-Plano, said on Mark Davis’ radio program Wednesday. “I did not speak to a single Democrat down here in HD21. Not a single one." "

    • Most 75-80 year Olds have some type of cognitive impairment. If you are asking if Biden has dementia then my answer is no. That is a Republican talking point. If you all think he has dementia what type do you think he has?
