Usually takes me 30 minutes total since I walk to my poling place (just up the road). <br /><br />Ahhhh on Goodreads. Ahhhhh!

And that's the biggest one I'd ever seen.<br /><br />We only vote on referendum issues, o/w it's done by elected officials. Our leaflets just tell you 'this is what the vote is, this is what each option means, you have to register by this date, you have to put your X in the box.' And then there's usually a brief explanation of how if you put anything but an X in the box, (like a tick, or colouring in the box,) your paper is spoiled and your vote doesn't count. For EU Parliament/Welsh Assembly elections, where we have to fill in our proportional rep. votes, we get ONE PIECE OF PAPER HANDED TO YOU AT THE POLLING STATION to explain wtf you're supposed to do.<br /><br />Like, America, overkill much?! Lol! ;) I suppose it just means your voters have even less excuse to be badly informed! (Sorry, that was a low blow... but a true one!)Cee Arr @ Dora Readshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04074909561530525221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193309628838073849.post-84868612149430727542018-10-30T23:10:55.788-06:002018-10-30T23:10:55.788-06:00Our voters' pamphlet is misnamed at 145 pages....Our voters' pamphlet is misnamed at 145 pages.

We also vote on state and county issues (usually tax increases and potential changes to laws). The Ballot Book explains all of the issues in incredibly tedious detail. That’s why it’s so long. The complicated issues sometimes get 20 pages of explanation.<br /><br />Aj @ <a href="http://ajsterkel.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Read All The Things!</a><br />Aj @ Read All The Things!https://www.blogger.com/profile/02860483414620371093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193309628838073849.post-59108895453650311412018-10-30T09:15:56.579-06:002018-10-30T09:15:56.579-06:00Good luck with finding a slow time!
