VA voter here, and when I voted this morning, the only people speaking to me anything political was the sample ballot lady, who was probably handing out sample ballots with all the democrats checked anyway. I just told her "No!" and kept walking. It's not like a Democrat has a chance in hell winning in this state anyway. Hello, it's Virginia!As for the republican campain, all they did was mail be a flyer last week. That's not exactly deceptive. It sure as heck didn't lead me to the wrong voting location, after all I know where I'm registered to vote at.If you're a Virginian and listen to a political party representative as to where to go to vote, you need to move to an island where they put retarded people, or at very minimum have your right to vote taken away.If for some reason you've had your mind erased by one of those all powerful politicians, or are a new Virginia voter, here's where you go to find your precinct (and your voting location):<a class="user" href="http://www.sbe.virginia.gov/cms/Voter_Information/Where_Do_I_Vote/Polling_Place_Lookup_request.asp">http://www.sbe.virginia.gov/cms/Voter_Information/Where_Do_I_Vote/Polling_Place_Lookup_request.asp</a>

@jellygraph and everyone else saying republicans are evil and democrats are evil.LOL I don't think this is what our forefathers had in mind when they created the party system.I also think that alot of our problems with corrupt politicians would be solved by incorporating time limits in congress and senate.Career politicians have ruined the united states, and you morons that hate other people because they're a republican or democrat are f**king RETARDED. It's almost as stupid as hating a black guy cause he's black.

Hello, I'm republican and I also live in Minneapolis. Now you've met a republican! I however don't think you're a bad person simply because you disagree with my viewpoints...

I think your a bad person but not because you disagree with my viewpoints but because your viewpoints are stupid.

Care to link to a few reports of democrats doing the same thing?Because all I ever see is news about republicans. And all of them have the same comment: The Dems do it too.No, they don't. At least not on any kind of scale that matters.

There are republicans in New York?Anyway, the article is more about highlighting a potential for abuse rather than suggesting that there is abuse. The article implies poor record keeping is to blame, not any effort on the part of the democratic party.

Republicans are macaca.
