"Though the price, availability, and type of data in the voter file varies by state, voter files never include information about who a person voted for in any election. This is because a voter’s decision of who to vote for is private – a 'secret ballot.'"
Your vote is private! No one can find out who you voted for. You can lie about how you voted. You can tell the truth. But people won’t know either way.

From the October 31, 2024 article:
“In the one place in America where women still have a right to choose, you can vote any way you want. And no one will ever know,” Roberts says in the ad as a woman on screen meets up with her husband after casting her ballot for Harris.
The voter winks at a fellow female voter as her husband asks if she made the “right choice.”
Republicans have responded to the video with outrage, with some claiming that a wife lying about her vote is as bad as an affair.
“If I found out Emma was going to the voting booth and pulling the lever for Harris, that’s the same thing as having an affair,” Fox News host Jesse Watters said on air Wednesday in a clip highlighted by Mediaite.
Other GOP members including Charlie Kirk said the thought was “nauseating.”

Today is General Election Day 2024. Haven’t voted yet? It’s time to get that ballot in!
Today is General Election Day in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and across the United States. Much is at stake. The presidency, four hundred and thirty five seats in the U.S. House, and a third of the seats in the Senate are all on the line. And that’s just the federal level positions. In Washington, nine statewide executive department positions, three Supreme Court positions, and three-fourths of…

With the upcoming election and political and social tension in america the pass few years it's important to one, vote. Show up to local elections, and big elections. But to also try to view the candidates from other's perspective. You may not deal with one issue but hundreds of others do. Racism isn't just social its systematic, and if you dont know what that means, it's the system that america has created benefits white people while harming people of color. The system america is built on priotizes capital above all else. There are many laws and loop holes that legalize racism and discrimination. There is legistration that effects people of color, queer people, disabled people, those who are incarcerated, ect. If you are not rich, white, and straight then the system does not care about you. You are not just voting for yourself. The best thing to do is to stay informed and being willing to listen, speak up, and willing to learn. There are a lot of people who speak out about their experiences and ways to help. I recently came across a video i feel i should mention that relates to this topic. The link is https://youtu.be/QDzL_2EP0mU?si=IEpocvPoAPyfi1lq . It is a mini documentary about using imprisoned people for cheap labor and essentially creating legal slavery. And serves a reminder the system does not care about you if you are poor, a person of color, queer, disabled. Remember to vote and try to keep others in mind when voting.

From the UK's 2024 General Election, after a recount - Labour won Hendon by 15 votes. Never say your individual vote won't matter.
#uk politics#vote#and also this is a good reminder to vote tactically - Green and LibDem each picked up several thousand. tactical voting would have#secured a more stable victory for Labour here - it's lucky the Tory vote got split with Reform as well

(The Washington Post)
For those who don't know, the US Supreme Court just ruled that states are allowed to enforce trans healthcare for minors. Undoubtedly, this will trigger a wave of other states that either hope to pass or have already passed policies to do the same. This is going to kill children, and harm more in long-lasting ways.
So, how can you help?
FUCKING VOTE. I don't care if you don't like Biden, he's not the only one on the ballot. Vote representatives into your city council who will turn our city into a sanctuary city. Vote for governors and state reps who will, even if they don't pass new protections, oppose bans being pushed through. Chsllenge and kick out conservative incumbents who are banking on their races being obscure enough for people to not vote in.
Anyone telling you voting is useless is either lying to you or grossly uninformed and think saying this is the edgy new take that will make them look hip and informed. Yes, the system is broken. But short of burning the whole thing to the ground (which personally I'm not a fan of as I quite enjoy having like. Roads and the FDA) what we can do is to change it for the better, by starting with the local races and working our way up.
#vio.txt#politics#us politics#lemme tell you when i read this story and my heart sank#the supreme court has set the tone on ruling on trans healthcare#the best thing we can do is ensure those decisions never reach them#this is your reminder that state court justices are an elected position#but god. im deeply worried for the upcoming election#transgender#lgbtq#lgbt#also on another note please vote for biden????? like trump is currently in several trials we cannot give him the power to pardon??????#also im hoping he'll keep erasing student loans

This is now a Kamala Harris for President blog btw
Obviously I'll keep posting good news as usual! And I'm going to pull up as much good news and reasons for hope about Kamala Harris's campaign as I can.
#united states#us politics#kamala harris#kamala 2024#harris 2024#vote blue#reminder that Kamala Harris winning is likely OUR BEST CHANCE OF ENDING THE PALESTINIAN GENOCIDE#she has opposed it#has sympathized with protestors#said that protestors were showing “what human emotion should be”#the white house has been watering down her comments for MONTHS and she may not be super loud about it in the campaign#because honestly that could cost her a lot of votes if she gets stuck labeled as pro hamas#but Biden isn't going to end this and Netanyahu will probably never end this if he gets his way#Trump has said Israel should “finish the job” and that as president he'll ban Palestinians from entering the US#Kamala Harris is our best hope of ending this massacre

Hello everyone who lives in the United States and is over 18, early voting has been open for a little bit and stays open until the 2nd. If you’re mailing a ballot, they have to have it by the 5th so you should send it in probably by the 29th. The election is on the 5th, so don’t let the deadlines slip your mind!
Vote for Kamala and let’s keep that orange fascist out of office!
#not a threat#if anyone says anything about ‘oh the dems are just as bad so voting doesn’t matter’ you will be instantly blocked#voting isn’t the ultimate solution but think of it like a tourniquet on a wound#it keeps stuff from getting worse until we can actually fix the inherent problem#so you should do it AND do whatever else it is you do#also to everyone not in the us: you have any us friends? remind them#not over 18? remind your family members unless they suck

It’s Top Two Election Day 2024 in Washington State – don’t forget to vote!
Readers, a reminder that today is the last day of the August 2024 Top Two Election, the elimination round of our problematic, two-part first-past-the-post general election system. Ballots must be postmarked or returned by a drop box by 8 PM tonight, or they won’t count. Be sure yours is in, and then remind friends and family to vote, too. Chances are, many of them haven’t. Don’t assume –…

Robin: No, I just looked at it! [Levi squinted suspiciously] Robin: What?! It’s not like I’ve been here before.
Levi: If you say so. Jacob: Pretty weird, either way. Penny: Whatever, let’s keep going.

Colfer does a good job of capturing the tension between Artemis' intelligence and his youth.
For example, Artemis' understanding of aurum potestas est privileges the "gold" in the family motto.
Necessarily, gold was the currency of power at the time of the motto's inception, but in the context of the 21st century, the nature of power is (in some ways, in some cases etc) more complicated.
By no means did Artemis make a poor deal in divesting the People of a metric ton's worth of gold, but arguably the most "valuable" "thing" he gained from his clash with the People was proof of their existence.
There's also this scene in TLC:
“Artemis was a little dazed. ‘Well, apparently I’m almost eighteen.’ ‘God help us all. Artemis Fowl, eligible to vote.’ Artemis chuckled. ‘I’ve been voting for years.’ ”
It's such a funny form of voter fraud!
Artemis is rich! And yet, he influences elections by casting illegitimate votes (whether by compelling someone to vote as he would like or by casting votes using another identity) instead of, like, bribing and/or blackmailing politicians?
#imagining Butler hiding voting reminders that come in the mail because he doesn't want to deal with 15 year old Artemis asking (again) if he#will agree to let Artemis illegally vote using the mail in#artemis fowl
