@jsmirman and @tblue37

I was thinking the same thing but didn't know if there was more to it or not but I understand now. Thank you for taking the time and educating me. It is greatly appreciated! When I went to register to vote I actually started to mark down unaffiliated party because I was afraid that poll workers might be corrupt and see I was Democrat so they would know to either change whatever I voted for or delete my vote entirely. At the last minute I just decided I was being to paranoid and marked down Democrat. I am proud to be one and didn't want to look like I was hiding it.

It is such a shame that in this country a person has to be so paranoid as not to be able to trust the voting system to be sure whoever she or he voted for is actually going to be for who they voted for. All thanks to the damn GOP!
