put all of your election posting here so it doesn't bother anyone else!

from @CoolerOpposide@hexbear.net:

For Agitprop purposes, I’m asking comrades to help aggregate any and all effortpost responses, critiques, or general thoughts that you have seen or written pertaining to yesterday’s U.S. election that you think have standalone value for discussion either online or IRL.

I made a post for that purpose here, and ideally it can be used not only for general discussion, but as a reference for well thought out responses in discussions about the election to save all of us some brainpower.

No shitposts please, as we’d like to highlight some comrades’ actual effort in constructing responses or analysis, but humor is 100% welcome to help make your point!

Just voted in new york.

For some reason they were using sharpies, not even fine point ones to fill out rhe ballot.

Could not even kinda of legibly write Claudia De La Cruz in the space. Oh well guess we'll find out if my vote was counted when there's zero votes for her in the county.

Doesn't seem right. I did early voting and got a pen and my mom voted today and she also got a pen.

I know via the Maric0pa County audit that they use Sharpies in Arizona because they aren't prone to smudging. Probably good for filling out bubbles and not so good for write-ins

I voted by sharpie too, had to be very careful and press it very lightly when filling in the write-in candidates I was voting for.
