Personal voting experience: 2022 Midterm/Presidential/Parliamentary Elections

[Tender Branson]

Please vote in this poll how you voted or will vote, or if you are not eligible, or won't vote ...

I included President & Parliament elections for non-Americans like myself (I voted by mail in our Oct. 9 President election).

Please also post your voting experience below ... was it smooth, or were there lines etc. ?

I voted by mail for the Austrian Presidential election on Oct. 9th - which the incumbent center-left President won with 57% (but I voted for a more leftist, younger candidate):

Voting by mail is smooth in Austria and non-controversial, unlike in the US.

For in-person voting, there were no lines, people waited no longer than 1 minute to vote.

Voted early, in person. No line or wait.

 

[BirdinHand]

Early voting here opens on the 29th. I will stop by sometime for early voting.

My ballot was mailed to me last week and to every eligible voter in Colorado. I filled it out at home, sealed it, signed it and dropped it in a box a few miles from my home in the parking lot of a police station.

Easy peasy. Colorado voting laws rock!

Yes and a great way to ensure no lines or wait times for those who may choose to vote in person. Voting laws like Colorado's make it easy and safe to vote no matter your preference.....as it should be.

My family voted by mail, but,,,,,just got a questionable letter regarding my son's vote, and his signature being unverifiable. So, I'm not sure if it is a scam or what seeing Arizonan is getting quite the voter suppression reputation this year. It's suspicious.

Has anyone gotten this letter as of yet? It wants him to call or send a photo of his ID. Wouldn't they have it on record through the state?

I've always voted by mail and never have received a letter like this.

Is the letter actually from the state? We're not in AZ, but my daughter had this happen last election.

I'd google the phone number and see what comes up. I did a quick search about AZ signature verification, I found a 20-page PDF about it. Oy.

Election day in person.

I actually enjoy going to the polling station and seeing the same usual poll workers and razzing them. Great people!

You enjoy voting day because thats the day you get to go to the polling place and give the workers a hard time?

Yay Murca!

 

[PeacefulWarrior]

Will vote by mail, ballot is sitting here I just havent mailed it in yet.
When voting in person I never have had any issues with waiting, it takes a few minutes tops. But I still prefer mail.

My "member title" is the answer.

Almost no American citizen at least 18 years old has an excuse for not voting. My signature says it all.

 

[Mongidig]

I might vote for a particular amendment or something but never for a person. You all are perpetuating a corrupt system. Plus I'm lazy.

 

[Helix]

We're voting early in person because the mail in options have been changed to make them unavailable to us.

I received my mail in ballot and put in the drop box in the Courthouse early voting site. There was a good turnout.
