Couldn't vote today

Apparently, signing up for the selective service no longer jointly registers you to vote. No one ever told me this.

Take that as a warning/reminder, I guess. Though I'm sure it's just a state thing.

I have to wait all the way until June to vote.

Why would you think that?
Does the selective service form have a line for party affiliation? I honestly wouldn't know. I never filled one out.

Deesbee · March 08, 2016, 02:17:02 PM

I only have a greencard and lived here for half my life so I obviously have no right to vote.

That's how my dad registered. When he had to sign up, he was registered to vote as well, automatically. So when I turned 18, he told me that I didn't have to bother registering--because once I signed up for the draft, they'd take care of it themselves.

Apparently, it doesn't work like that anymore. Maybe it was just a thing in MI, but it's not even a thing anymore.

Jester · March 08, 2016, 03:02:31 PM

The entire voting system is fucked

Super Irish · March 08, 2016, 03:19:10 PM

Huh, seems odd that they don't tell you when voting is supposed to be such a priority right now.

In the UK they do TV ads and send letters to houses so you'd have to be a hermit to not know about it:

I voted and Trump/Clinton still won the state. So sad.

Solonoid · March 08, 2016, 03:50:38 PM

It never did, it's registering to vote tat signs you up for the selective service.

Doesn't go both ways.

You're fifteen, right?

I recommend registering immediately after three.

There are other elections besides presidential to vote in.

Your dad probably registered to vote, and was jointly signed up for the SS.

That's what I did.

It's funny to me that people haven't figured out that the whole STEM master race thing is literally a joke, and there are just no jobs for anybody.
