PLEASE! Read and know how you intend to vote on the ballot issues before you enter the booth - there are many and most are pretty long and confusing.
Besides tons of judges, uninformed voters are what take up so much time.

Any link for Lincoln County?

Lincoln County now added!

Hooray for St. Louis City Board of Elections! Their hard-working staff has been innovative and organized. My fingers and toes are crossed for them. May they have a snafu-free election day.

To the voters–remember as you are standing in line that those election judges will have a very long and stressful day with few, if any, breaks. Please show them the same patience and courtesy we ask them to show you.

Know before you go, or expect to be in line, for a very long time.

BEWARE! I just got an email that “says” it’s from the STL P-D and stltoday.com. It shows them as Sender. It implies that the PD endorses voting for Prop A, the gambling deal–a complete contradiction to the PD’s actual recommendation. Yes, the subject line says it’s a paid advertisement, but it is nevertheless a message FROM THE PD. I don’t think it is ethical to try to trick people into voting unintentionally. It’s blatant misrepresentation. What a lofty example for “all the little children” the Prop A people claim to want to help. I think it speaks volumes about what the Prop A people are all about. I’m just surprised the PD can’t put a stop to this. If buying an ad on stltoday.com entitles you to an “official looking” endorsement from the PD, I think that could really hurt the paper’s credibility.

By the way, I voted absentee last week and I printed out a sample ballot in advance and marked it up in red. It really, really helped. Also, if you vote electronically, be sure to check the tally sheet that scrolls on the left side of the machine. You can confirm that it is recording your votes correctly. That piece of scrolling paper will be used in case there’s a recount, which could easily happen in Missouri. But check it as you go along. If you wait until the end, most of your votes will have already scrolled past and you won’t be able to recheck them. I was very happy to learn that I could check to make sure it recorded my votes correctly.

Thank you for the Lincoln County linky. My sample ballot is already filled out and ready for tomorrow!

Good luck in Lincoln County! And to voters throughout the region!

I know my polling place. All I want is a sample ballot. Your web site is junk!

The Missouri and Illinois links above provide sample ballots as well as polling place information.
