From Snopes today:
For those who normally vote "Straight Democratic", please pay close attention!!!!! I was informed this weekend by a group of Obama volunteers that when voting for the presidential candidate this November, you have to make sure you punch Barack's name first, then proceed to punch "Straight Democratic" or else the vote for the president won't count. I'm not sure if any of you are aware of this, but we know they won't tell us this at the polls. Please make sure you inform others.
Of course the same would be true for Republicans and doesn't apply in every state.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

No offense, but people who use the straight party lever/button/whatever deserve whatever happens to them.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

I always use the "Straight" button.
How's that for a double irony?

Now there's a political view even I can agree with!
