I swear.....these people really scare me. They procreate.....and they vote.
Here is an actual conversation that took place on the message board regarding the upcoming election.
Voter: I just registered to vote in Georgia. Received my card in the mail on Saturday. Do you have to go to your polling precinct to vote? My sons school is a voting precinct and it is less than 2 min from my house, but my card has me at an address in Rockmart which is at least 20 min away. Thanks to anyone that knows the answer.
Paulding Resident #1: I believe you have to go to the location that is on your card.
Paulding Resident #2: I have a question.Do you live in Paulding or Polk County?Isn't Rockmart Polk County?Why if you live in Paulding would you vote in Polk.Just asking.
Paulding Resident #1: Rockmart is in both counties
Voter: I have no idea. I live in Paulding county and my address is Dallas.
Paulding Resident #2: But would her ballot contain issues pertaining to Paulding or Polk?This is very interesting to me. I'm sorry but this has me confused.You can't send a child across county line to school,how do you vote across county lines.I think it's a mistake,but that's just me.
Stop the story for a minute......
OK....just to clarify here. We have several towns out here that are located in Paulding as well as a neighboring county. Powder Springs is located in Cobb County as well as Paulding County. Rockmart is located in Paulding and Polk Counties. Acworth is located in Cobb and Paulding Counties. Don't know why....it just is. And it's not just isolated to Georgia. Our lake house is located in Fair Play, South Carolina. Fair Play is located in Oconee and Anderson Counties.
Picking back up with the story.......
Paulding Resident #1: She lives in Paulding and her polling place is in Paulding. (Rockmart addresses are located in both counties.)
Paulding Resident #3: I wonder why they have you voting in Rockmart? did you use to live there?
Paulding Resident #4: Down here, we have Rockmart, Temple, and Dallas addresses ... all within a stone's throw of each other. I believe the voting breakdown/map for this area is done the way it is because the school is so small and it is hard to get too many people through there for voting.
Paulding Resident #5: We live in Villa Rica but, it's still Paulding County. People automatically think Carroll County.
Paudling Resident #6: Here's some info for voting in Paulding, but like the others, I don't understand why they are sending you to Rockmart, unless that's where you HAVE to vote. Polk County will have different ballots. If your card says Rockmart, then you have to vote in Polk County. Call the registrar's office and find out where early voting is for Polk County.
Paulding Resident #1: Once again ... there are Rockmart addresses in Paulding County.
Paulding Resident #6: Once again, if her card says she has to vote in Rockmart, that's Polk County. She will have to vote in Polk County using a Polk County ballot. I understand the address thing, it's everywhere, but if she lives in Polk with a Dallas address then she has to vote in Polk.
Paulding Resident #1: Her voting location is a Rockmart address within Paulding County. She lives in Paulding County.
Paulding Resident #5: People you have to remember, just because your address says a city doesn't mean you live in that city. I would think the proper way to describe it would be this way. I live in Paulding County with a (city) address. Therefore, one can "live" in Villa Rica but vote in Paulding because that is where you live. It doesn't have anything to do with the city on your address but it has everything to do with the county. The post office that delivers your mail and only delivers your mail has nothing to do with what county you vote in or what things you vote on. I'm sure you will vote on your county issues and if you don't then you can complain.
Paulding Resident #7: Gawd, you people amaze me!!!!!
Paulding Resident #3: I would call and ask. I assume you live in Paulding County and Rockmart (at least most of it) is in Polk County, just to make certain they haver you at the correct polling place.
Paulding Resident #6: Maybe I'm a little dense here, but I'm seeing her say that her card, and I'm assuming her voter registration card, has her in Rockmart. Rockmart is in Polk county. I don't care what her address is, what matters is what her voter registeration card says. Am I missing something here? (uhh....yeah. A brain!!!!!)
Paulding Resident #3: But the ballot will be a Polk County ballot and she would not get to vote for Paulding County offices.
