No electronic failures, no failures in the punch card, no failures on the touch screen, no false counting, and this can be scanned over and over to get a valid total count.

I think Monday is the last day you can register to vote in Arizona! If you didn’t do it yet ~ you gott’a start moving on it right now. Some areas you can register online. Whatever you do,,,,,,, if you go to the polls take ID several types that show your current address and signature, in some states a photo ID is required.

I anticipate a very large turnout at the polls in November so my wife and I requested absentee ballots, and I’ll take them to the local polling place to drop them off on election day “without waiting in the lonnnnnggg line” ~ going to the front of the line and dropping them in the box. Don’t miss getting your vote counted.

I've been a registered voter in Arizona for a long time. And the way I see it, I vote because politicians are like diapers, they have to be changed often!

We are registered and have never missed voting. I have even been a campaign worker for various people seeking office. Also a judge at a polling place for many years. Yes, voting is important. To me not a privilege but an obligation as an American.
