Hubby & I just voted in Georgia. My biggest gripe is that amost every seat listed below President

[napi21]

was UNOPPOSED and the incumbent was a Pub! I go through this every darn year. Last year I sent emails to the Dems of Ga., and the national Dem Party complaining and asking them to change that, but alas, nothing's changed.

At lease we did what we could to get a Dem President!

1. Early voting doesn't start in GA until Monday the 17th.

Did you vote absentee?

[napi21]

4. We are both disabled so we vote absentee. Sorry, I should have included that tidbit. ns

[Phentex]

9. Both of my sons voted absentee...

as they are away in college. It was fun talking to them about the proposed amendments. Didn't you love the wording?

[napi21]

19. Yea. Who writes that stuff? Deliberately to /make sure voters don't have a clue what they're

talking about. One good thing is there's a group running quite a few ads against Amendment 1 and what it would do. I'll have to pay attention to the ad to see who's running it so I can thank them. Other than that google is your friend.

2. Welcome to gerrymandering.

These districts are drawn so red, nobody even bothers to offer voters an alternative anymore.

[Blue_Tires]

3. +1

[napi21]

5. If nobody ever tries, it will be certain to stay that way! They're talking about Hillary having

a chance to carry Ga. this year, so I think some Dems should at least TRY!

7. Why don't YOU run for office? SERIOUSLY!

There may be lots of other folks who want to vote for someone other than the standard republiCANT!

Who knows? You could WIN!

[napi21]

17. I would, but I'm 73 and in a wheelchair. I doubt me chances would be very good.

Thanks for asking, and I assure you, if this were 20 years ago, I'd try.

6. I blame Debbie Wasserman-Schultz.

You're right, we should have a name on every seat and every ballot, even if we never spend a dime beyond the filing fee. You never know when one of the pubs will implode or the brand will become toxic, as it is now.

[Jim Beard]

13. I also blame Schultz also.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

8. I voted in Ohio today too. There were three Republican justices who ran unopposed...

... on my ballot. I abstained from voting for them, not that it matters.

At least all of the other elected positions had Democrats here.

[bigbrother05]

10. Will early vote next week, but our district (GA 2nd) has a Dem incumbent

Most of the others down ballot are unopposed Dems below the Sen/House races.

[Warpy]

11. We'll have to get the DLC (or whatever they are these days)

out of the catbird seat in order to bring back Dean's 50 State Strategy. What Democratic candidates in red states lack most is the funding to run. Funding is allocated to sure thing states, instead of being "wasted" on races where Democrats might lose this time--but win in the long run.

[napi21]

18. I'm HOPING that lots of the Pubs get disgusted and stay home. If the Dems vote, We could

take the House, Senate, and Presidency. IF that happens, we can have DEMOCRATIC INCUMBENTS to run in 2018. If a Dem majority can make people realize things are better for them than they were under Pub rule. At least that my plan!

[Jim Beard]

12. I also really feel your pain. That is the way it is in Texas.

I used to help the county chair but it was a losing battle especially when Debbie Wasserman cuts funding like she did for Wendy Davis.

[alfie]

14. I will be voting early in Ga first thing Monday morning

I don't expect to find any Dems down ticket either...sigh. Please let the gerrymandering end!

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

15. You can't force people to run

Especially in places where being a Democrat is a scarlet letter.

[trof]

16. Alabama is even worse.

Two dems on the entire ballot.
Hillary and Ron Crumpton, running against Sen. Richard Shelby.
Crumpton has NO chance.
All else are repugs running unopposed.
