the worst thing that could happen is. she could reveal that shes an uber strong alein from the plant orgiadsfk here to take over the Billboard charts and the world with her uber strong singing capabilities.  she will have a huge song battle with Taylor, Paris, and KAthrine McPhee. it will be very much like power rangers until the great round house kicker, Chuck Norris steps in defeats them all cause no one but wins american idol but chuck norris. Dont fear people because the chances of this happening are quite slime 1 in 5 odds i think.  GO KELLY!

I THINK IT'S TO  MAKE IT A BIT HARDER FOR SOME PEOPLE TO ASK  A THE STUPID QUESTION'S  TO MAKE A FEW POINT'S. I DON'T LIKE IT BUT MAYBE IT WILL DO ALL OF US SOME GOOD IN THE LONG RUN,I JUST DON'T THINK IT WILL DO ANY GOOD AT ALL. IT SUCKS DOE!

It seems quite possible that this will be the case (though it really depends on who the election seems to favor).  It certainly would not be the first instance in recent memory where questions concerning absentee ballots and voter machines turned the election into a sleazy media debacle.  \n\nNo doubt, whoever comes out on top will immediately take steps  to "fix" the system (which has apparently become too complicated for the folks charged with counting the ballots), and prevent any future confusion.

It'd be nice if it worked that way.  The whole "attack ad" thing is just insane.\n\nI found a Voter's Guide put together by the League of Women Voters that had compiled the responses by all candidates to a set of questions.  I found that very useful, because the candidates were forced to talk about what they WOULD do, versus what the other guy WOULDN'T do.\n\nIt was mind-boggling to me that there were actually candidates who didn't send in a response to the survey, so were listed as "No reply received".  I'm sorry, but if you "can't be bothered" or "can't get around" to answer 3-4 questions of 100 words or less to inform the voters on your position, WHY should I vote for you??

If the site attracts enough users I expect the points system to be radically changed, possibly rewarding only "Best Answers" and "Thumbs Up" ratings.  That would be the way to encourage and reward positive participation and quality.  As it stands now, they are on a mission of getting people here and keeping them for a while, so basically any and all participation is rewarded.

That was kinda funny.\n\nI just just walked in, waited 10 minutes, and voted. No funny stories here. And it's the way it should be.

Well, gee, poll results might have something to do with it!

I think this will be a big issue now for the elected. People are going to vote more independently now instead of how they use too. \n And as far as Illegals voting-there will be a demand for a recount if people see it. It will happen.

That's the greatest thing I've seen all day! Thank you. I'm pretty sure it's going to be a short term clause, but it's good to see somebody trying to work within the system. It' won't work in the long run, but bringing public awareness around is a good step (if a small one) towards political change. Plus, it's pirates! How cool is that?! Avast! Arrgghh!

Yes. But you might think about changing districts.

No, but it is frequently asked for. At the moment the only changes we users can make is to the Watched Questions section of the page. Keep watching, though!\n\nYou can track the discussion and progress on the forum - http://rds.yahoo.com/_ylt=AjVaVcxHKABgqv0w5PlnqXkazKIX/SIG=12855u6b8/**http%3a//messages.next.yahoo.com/next/forumview%3fbn=SEA-YahooAnswers\n\nAnnouncements of future changes often hit here first.

No! I don't want my future decided by a bunch of uninformed people who run in and punch Box A on every issue to get entered in the lottery. If you change the proposition so that you get entered only after sitting down and completing a form that requires you give a detailed explanation of each item on the ballot and what it means, to prove you know what you are voting for, I would go for it then because then it would give an true incentive for getting out more Informed voters.

Good question! I think it's a PR move. Shows the voters that they care about the issues they care about. It's more action.

Just be patient Karl, hopefully, things will move to help our votes really be our votes. In the meantime, I put a link in that may interest you.
