The “Water Cooler” is a feature on Claycord.com where we ask you a question or provide a topic, and you talk about it.
The “Water Cooler” will be up Monday-Friday at noon.
Today’s question:
QUESTION: Do you vote by mail, or do you vote at your polling place?
Talk about it.
Mail. Because I don’t want to wait in line. Mail in ballot is the best.
I always vote by mail.

By Mail
I’m old school. I like to vote in person. I like to pay in cash
.
Mail.

Dropped off our ballots at the CC Sanitary District drop box.
I always voted in person and a couple of cycles ago they started sending me ballots so I have just been going with that. Where I was voting there wasn’t any line. Maybe one or two people in front of you. I think that any polling place that has a long line is a bad thing. They should open more polling places.
We filled out our mail ballots at home and dropped them off at our nearby polling place this morning.
Just voted in person. They didn’t have the ballot go through a scanner or anything. I was instructed to put it in a slot on the side of what was essentially a soft sided beverage cooler. I want to change the exclamation point on my I voted sticker to a question mark.
@miguel
Exactly the same.
I felt the same way, miguel. Who knows if the ballots are correctly counted. I wondered about that way before the big ??? from 2020.
I rec’d a mail ballot, but then took it to local polling place, and felt like a kitchen trash bag would have been just as “secure.” As I left, watched and listened a little bit to people chatting in the parking lot.
~~~~~ We are not alone in our questions!
26 well chosen “vote splitters” running for Governor. LOL LOL LOL
By Mail. Took to Clayton Post Office when there.
Polling place. And I show my photo ID even though they don’t ask for it.
Mail. Could make it to the polls when I was working so we started requesting mail in ballots and have stayed with it.
No I won’t vote at this point it counts for little or nothing.
I can see why people are fleeing the state unless your a woke dem.
I am proud to say I am Reagan republican a great governor and president.
I believe in nuclear power and natural gas and free speech. Try putting that on
the ballet.
I know how you feel, Old man. I do vote though. HOLD MY NOSE and VOTE and dream… “…maybe my vote is the one that puts that SOB incumbent out of a job….”
I am with you. First time ever I have not voted. Will NEVER vote again. Mail in voting is a joke and cheating is something the Dems have mastered.
By Mail and dropped it off last week at the Post Office. Also, we did “Where’s my Ballot”. Got notice they were received and counted…. hope it was counted correctly.
I vote in person. I may fill out my ballot at home, but always drive to the polling place.
Mail. Got the text message from the County elections office telling me my ballot had been received and counted.
The ballots for State offices remind me of the enormous number of TV stations out there. Lots to choose from but nothing good to watch and nobody to vote for.
Polling Place and I showed them ID.
Goes in the trash until they take big money out of the process. Someone with a ton of money from out of state can influence the outcome by creating twisted messages on radio, TV and paper fliers. “Vote ‘NO’ on XYZ or kids will stave!” I can’t compete with all that with my one vote.
We vote by mail over here in our free state. But you have to reapply each election and provide a lot of information to prove that you are legally able to vote. California will never take those safety precautions as long as Democrats are ruining things.
I mail 3 ballots, vote in person at 4 places, send in another 27 absentee ballots, and then go to Martinez and tell them my ballot was stolen.
Sincerely your resident Claycord Democrat
Excellent. Make sure you leave your smart phone at home though, the MAGA folks are onto us.
Both!…ha!…..how u like dem apples??
I gave up on voting at a polling place after twice they sent me to a place two miles away when there was a polling place around the corner. Why did they do that?
So I get sent the mail-in ballot and drop it off a few blocks away at one of the drop boxes. And yesterday got a text message that the ballot was received and counted.
There is no verification of (mailed in) signatures…or to my knowledge, verification recipient…ie; democrats preferred method. Course without having to present ID, PP is also suspect, but at least a human has to present their face and name is then checked off a register…won’t matter after democrats pass a law that illegals don’t even need to sneak into California to vote
Like every good mule. Both. A lot.
I vote by mail.
But, I’m sure no Republican would ever vote by mail since we all know mail-in ballots are so easy to fake.
Voted by mail but forgot to sign the ballot. The County Bd. of Elections contacted me by mail and email to tell me of my error, and that a signature form would be coming in the mail to complete my ballot. It did, and I signed it and sent it back. They confirmed the receipt of it and confirmed my ballot – all done a week before the election.
Our Board of Elections is very thorough.
Lately, I’ve been dropping off at official counting ballot drop box. I’m also registered with the ballot app that notifies you when they are mailed out and notifies when its recorded for your vote.
