Scoot Out The Vote
I'm hashtagging #ScootOutTheVote for ScooterFile on Twitter and Facebook today and looking for people to share photos of themselves and their scooters exercising their muscles of democracy today! Check it out at https://www.facebook.com/events/454588494591261/ or follow us on Twitter @ScooterFile. Maybe we could get this to trend!

I think this link should work to search the hashtag, whether you have a Twitter account and are logged in or not.JHScoot wrote:twitter? i cannot use it i have no idea what to do when i sign on. i "tweeted" something to @scooterfile but who knows what that does or even where it goes!

Rode my Stella to the polls but neglected to snap a pic.
Then rode it to the tavern after work to watch the returns come in.
Had a very nice burger. It had an egg on it.

Living in a swing state the phone calls were relentless. I started asking the callers to PLEASE sell me a timeshare!
When I went to vote on the way home from work (riding Burgman commuter) I had my helmet with me. The little old lady worker got a kick out of it when I stuck a "I Voted" sticker on it!

A little reminder to keep politics, even jokingly, off the forum. Some people are pretty worked up and emotional about the outcomes of this election. I'd rather not hear from them here.

There was and is all kinds of stuff being reported on TV. This is still not the place for discussing it.

Scoot out the vote
I like those "I voted today" stickers. I have never seen those in my area. I thought about riding the scooter to the polling place but it was cold, damp and windy so I took the cage instead.

People love the stickers! I do, too. Everyone proudly wears them all day.theflash784 wrote:I like those "I voted today" stickers. I have never seen those in my area. I thought about riding the scooter to the polling place but it was cold, damp and windy so I took the cage instead.
I don't remember getting stickers in Texas.

The nice senior citizen lady from the Red Cross always insists on slapping an I-gave-blood-today sticker on me. They're such sweethearts, it's hard to resist. Our grumpy election judges, on the other hand, practically growl out 'get yer own damn sticker off the roll'.

Maybe your state does what AZ does. In AZ you can use your mail in ballot and just drop it off at the polling station. No muss, no fuss, no waiting, and an I Voted sticker. Best of both worlds.heatherkay wrote:I always vote early using the mail-in ballot, so no sticker
Not only do I not get the street cred, I miss out on a bunch of sweet discount deals at bars and restos on election day. I should vote at the polling place next time and get swipe a roll of stickers.

And your vote *may* get counted a week after elections. Currently Arizona has over a half MILLION early-voter dropoff ballots, absentee ballots and provisional ballots that are not counted.Syd wrote:Maybe your state does what AZ does.
