Oh you can tell. But it's not going to be easy to report it without getting caught. Part of the process is auditing. We would take certain stacks that had incomplete marks and try and figure out who or what they meant. But it's just hi ho hum work because it's a madhouse. Remembering that Betty Smith voted for Prop 17 by the end of the day would be really difficult without being very obvious that was who you were looking for.

Then there are verifications on who voted at all that were registered to the right polls. All their answers are on their ballots. Security is what keeps it secret and a precise way of dealing with it. In a big room with many eyes. Kind of like a casino's money vault.

I read certain phrases from what they wrote and it infers that people do not know who voted for who or what. That just isn't the mechanism. It's done by computers. It has to be tabulated for a multitude of reasons. It's not anonymous to the mechanism. It is anonymous to the public. Which is not what the original statement. It was that the trust is built from no one at all ever knowing or being to tell.

They can tell who votes. Your entire premise is based on a belief that votes are anonymous. They aren't. They are pretected from the public. If you have ever worked in election, which I have, you would know that. You have to cross reference if someone voted twice, are alive, or even registered in the county they voted in. There are computers that verify electronic bullets and there are batch audits. No one is ever allowed to be alone even with one ballet. Everything is done in a team. If your partner calls in sick, you're the third wheel to another team.

Just because the public doesn't know doesn't mean the government doesn't know.

One of the biggest hurdles would be language. Even 50 years ago people sounded different. You go back 200, you would sound weird to the others. It would be disorienting. Might end up in jail or worse. Language is an organic thing that constantly changes.

Wait. Scary Movie 2 doesn't count? Name a better banter than between David Cross and Chris Elliott.

I mean he's getting paid by a known moron. You could sell him glitter foundation and he would go out looking like a disco ball.

They are. Go find the others and be with them. Say, the South Pole?

I was rocking the Jerboa app and now it's not letting me login. Are there any other alternatives out there?

 

My boy doesn't like the fireworks but he doesn't let him have a bad day. (He still acts like a derp).
