Ground report:
Voted today New York (LI).
CROWDED.
People who can't seem to follow simple directions; both voters and poll workers.
Ballot could not be read on three machines; several attempts on each, per poll workers instructions.
(try it again; flip it over and try again; turn it around and try it again; try it again on another machine; etc.; ad nauseam)
(fat nigger bitch says sometimes it's a problem with the machine)
Same problem with two more machines.
(this time with white lady)
(I think they are retarded.)
Finally tell them "enough of the bullshit – I want another ballot."
Approach machine and white male tells me to give him the privacy shield (which has directions on it to feed the ballot into the scanner FROM IT).
I tell him I'll give it to him WHEN I'M DONE WITH IT.
New ballot goes through, first shot, on a different (fourth) machine.
For the record, I do not believe that we are going to be able to vote our way out of this mess.
I would prefer that it be peaceful, but that probably won't be up to me.
I'm good either way.
