My ballot arrived today. I would drop it off tomorrow if not for all the judicial retention stuff and a few other things I will have to do some research on. I should have the chance to do that in the next couple of days. ---

Husband says my ballot arrived. But reminded me that we have a lot of ballot questions, some of which i still need to research. So it might take me a while. ---

> [@Kolak\_of\_Twilo](#): > > Where did you get recommendations on all those races? Asking as a need to know. For the judges, i check in the chicago bar association website that they are at last rated as qualified. My ballot this time didn’t have any not qualified ones. As for the other races, I won’t be voting R any time soon until the party as a whole repudiates and ejects MAGA with the possible exception of my alderman…maybe. ---

We mailed in our ballots this morning. There were eight contests. I voted for the Democrats on five contests (counting Harris/Walz as one) and for Republicans on the remainder. My wife blackened the oval for Democrats six times, Republicans two. If I can get defensive here, all Republicans we voted for are RINO’s, with the exception of the incumbent Pennsylvania State Treasurer, who faces a poorly qualified Democrat our Democratic governor declined to endorse.

First day of voting in Ohio. I went at 2, 20 people in line in front of me. The volunteer said at least 900 had been there so far. ---

Voting in New Mexico started yesterday. I went by the courthouse around noon, and there was a three-hour line. Today, I went at 8:00am, and got finished in 15 minutes. If the commies win, it won’t be my fault. ---

My county website says my ballot was received the day after I mailed it but now 9 days later my ballot has not yet been counted. I don’t know the details on how / when mail-in ballots are counted in my county but I’ll be watching. ---

Early voted in person in Indiana today. Bigger line than I’ve ever seen at a polling place. Indiana isn’t known for good voter turnout. ---

I’d like to assume that as well but I don’t know. I’ve heard that Democrats vote early and a big turnout is good for us but this is Indiana so… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-voted-nov-2024-edition/1008280.md?page=4) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-voted-nov-2024-edition/1008280.md?page=6)
