I voted straight Democratic. Except for Arlen Spector I’ve never voted for a Republican for anything higher than school board in my life. And everyone I voted for lost. 
Now that both houses have turned red the General Assembly’s probally going to start the process of writing the ban on marriage equality into the constitution. :mad:
Also voted last week. Mostly Dems, poll choice was “other”.
I voted ‘other’ because I’d like to have picked all the no options + I’m too rational to give a fuck. I’m currently stealing your democracy, what are you going to do about it? Not a damn thing. Hahahaha :p!
I think it was more than half of the races that only had Republicans running, but we’re in different precincts. If any of the races had had a Republican and some other flavor of politician running, I’d probably not have voted for the straight Dem ticket.
Other! Mailed in my ballot 2 weeks ago. Mix of Dems, Pubs, and Libertarian. Plus the two guys I actually know who were going for School Board.
For the races where I was informed, I voted straight Democratic, but that’s because I didn’t like any of the Republicans in those races. I’m not opposed to voting for a Republican generally. I did not vote for any race/candidate that I wasn’t informed about.
Nope, didn’t vote. My heart’s in Pittsburgh and my residence is in Virginia. I therefore know nothing about Virginian politics and no ability to affect Pittsburgh’s politics.
That, and no election was decided by one vote, once again proving that since all of you are voting, I don’t have to. Let me know when you’re all going to skip out and I’ll go vote for us.
Every two years, I’m perplexed by the people that conflate voting with being an informed, caring citizen. There are plenty of people that vote that aren’t informed and there are plenty of informed that don’t vote. There’s no correlation.
Split, generally Republicans for Judges and Democrat Bill White for Governor. I detest Rick Perry for pushing the TransTexas Corridor, forced HPV vaccination of 6th grade girls and his idiotic talk of secession.
Cook County (suburban Chicago) voter here. I voted over lunch-hour a couple of weeks ago two blocks from my office. No line, no waiting, took longer for me to get my lunch than to vote. 
I voted for Dems at the top of the ticket – governor, federal Senate, federal House. For the lower state and county offices, I voted for a mix of Dems and Reps, with an independent thrown in for good measure. No municipal offices up for election. Voted on judges according to the recommendations of the bar associations. Voted “no” on the only referendum, a constitutional amendment to allow recall of the governor. The General Assembly showed not that long ago that they are quite willing to impeach a governor when necessary, without the expense of a special recall election. 
What was the result of all that? The guv I voted for (Quinn) is in the lead but the race is not formally decided. My Dem. Congresswoman (Schakowsky) won, but there was little chance she’d lose. The Rep (Kirk) won for Senate, and I’m crossing my fingers he’ll maintain his moderate House voting record. Every judge on the retention ballot won, even the ones who got unanimously slammed by the bar associations. 
And the recall amendment won.
On the latter point, I’m somewhat afraid with the squeeeeker gubernatorial election that Quinn will be facing a recall petition (or two, or three) within the next year or so, regardless of how he actually performs in office. See Obama, Barack. :dubious:
Nice to know I’m on the winning team here, if not in reality.
Other: We moved in July and forgot about our voter registration change completely. By the time we remembered it was too damn busy to bother.
I would have voted a fairly straight dem ticket this time, though I’m an independent and have voted for republicans in the past.
The only reason I didn’t say “Straight Democratic ticket” is that I voted for one independent. I abstained marking anything about the unopposed Republicans in various races for lack of available write-ins. Yes, in Mo. you have to sign up to be a write-in, & the only ones I saw were for things like US Senate, where we already had two choices.
We vote by mail here, AND it’s past election day, but yeah, I voted.
Mostly Democrat (I’m a progressive Independent); either the indie options were right-wing or I voted for Dems I liked.
We got Kitzhaber in as Gov. and kept all our decent Democratic Representatives, so I’m pretty happy.
God, isn’t Rick Perry gone yet? worst Texas Gov. since Bush (says this 3rd generation, relocated Texan) :smack:
Just for context, does “relocated Texan” mean you’re Texan now because you relocated there, or that you were originally Texan and relocated elsewhere?
