I got a sticker and it just said I voted and nothing else. I already lost it. Don't need no damn sticker. My soul is my sticker
We are a very child-like people.

We also clap when we finish voting
Reposting from Poligaf.
+6 Here in Pennsylvania for Hillary in rural carbon county. Straight democratic ticket for everyone here. Come on Philly. Don't let us down. No surprises PA.
Was in and out at my location in say 5 to 8 minutes. Where we took my grandparents the wait was longer since the location was smaller and since my grandfather can't walk well. That said the line there moved quickly for the most part. Seemed about the same as normal in terms of people but it was clear people were trying to get their vote in before work.
No stickers. Never any stickers at any of the locations.

You guys are lucky, the voting polls in Colombia open up at 7AM and close up at 4PM.

Exactly, I may have vehemently disagreed with the policy preferences of the Bush's and Reagan but at least they were rational human beings. Witnessing one of our major parties lose its freaking mind has been terrifying.

I don't seem to recall us having so much focus on queues either, here in the UK.
Granted I live in a small town, but I can literally run over at some point in the evening and I'll have voted within 2 minutes.
Ya'll are killin me here lmao
Then my suggestion would be to move on. That's all i'm saying.
It's pretty crazy that I actually fear for my account a little bit writing that last post, even though I am staunchly anti-trump and always have been. This election cycle has been absolutely manic. I can't imagine actually participating in it.

Wow it's like a voting wasteland out there, then.
About as intelligible as around half our population! *cries*

Been a thing since I can remember. Sometimes it's also a stamp on the hand.

They aren't new; they've been around at least since I started voting in the late 90s, probably longer.
I wish my state had a cool sticker:
"I Ohio voting"
well everyone hates Ohio, it's pretty much hate personified, so
"I hate voting"
i didn't even get a sticker
Ugh, I think this is why I feel so sick. The Brexit shambles has completely destroyed my confidence. I keep thinking 'if we're stupid enough to vote Leave, then anything stupid can happen'. My stomach is in knots.

It doesn't work like that, although I can see your point. All the bigotry caused by the Trump campaign will remain here. And if you can't educate the bigots, one can surely expect that shaming them will shut them up and allow educating people who can be educated.

I know GAF leans heavily towards Hillary, but can you really be banned just for supporting Trump?
That would be absolutely ridiculous

I honestly wondered what happened to stickers for a minute after I left the polling place, lol.

If Hillary wins, CNN will call it as soon as the California polls close.
I don't think she can get to 270 without the west-coast states, which are firmly blue.
No sticker either here since my state mostly votes by mail. I did get to fill my ballot out in my underwear though, so that's probably better.

Pretty much. Sad to say but it's the truth.

What do you mean by "fixing"?
It is, but I've never gotten one for it. Today probably won't be any different.
Thanks fellas. I wish we got stickers or stamps in aus
why does the world hate stickers?
uh, no. despite what some people cry wolf about on here.

You could take it on yourself to try to help these people instead of berating us for not doing it.
Your fears are unwarranted as nothing you said was even remotely banworthy.
Thanks guys.
Guess all will be said and done by the time I finish work tomorrow then
All hail emperor Trump
lol
