I wanted to tell you what happened to me at the polls this AM. I am in NH at least 4 nights per week so that’s where I vote. They check ID’s here which is great! I got my ballot, filled it out and went to put it in the hand counting slot, there’s a sign there. I always put my ballot there because I don’t trust the machine for all of the reasons that have been discussed. The woman there stopped me and said no just put it through the machine so I told her I prefer it hand counted. She said ok but I have to take your name. I said why would you take my name it’s a private ballot. She said that’s what we are demanded to do. I said I don’t like this but gave her my name, she wrote it on a list in which I was the only one on it, and I left. Make a long story short I went back and said I want my name off that list, you are violating my civil rights by putting my name which is attached to my ballot. So I said I’ll wait until you find the list and I want my name removed if not I want my ballot back and I won’t vote. Finally she found the list there was just my name and one other name. She must have known the other person because she went right to my name without asking me and scratched it off. It’s obvious they would know who James Goodrich voted for!!!! By then there was a cop there and I apologized and said I meant no harm. He said I am proud of you for coming back and speaking up and shook my hand.

Trump 2024!!!!!

Good for you! Some of these people working the polls are irresponsible with information that is vital. Sick and tired of their entitlement views of thinking they know better.

Thank you, hvala, James, I am so proud of you, I know you always do the right thing. Too bad there are not more that would go through that, well done. I would have had a few not so nice words if that woman gave me attitude, however doubt she was nasty, hope not. Good to hear of a nice cop.

James, it is Wednesday morning and Trump has won! Imagine the sorrow in the hearts of all these corrupt criminal election fraudsters ! Good triumphs over evil when good men and good women do their duty by God and by one another!

WOW! This is crazy to hear- I’m so happy you went back & requested your name be removed from that “list”! Sounds like a red flag to me- in regards to jotting your name (& possibly others), that prefer to have your ballot hand counted. I don’t like the fact machines with software are used for ballots & recording those votes- I always complete my ballot at home (CO mails ballots out); after I finish voting & filling in the circles, I hand carry my ballot to my county voting precinct, & inside the building I drop my ballot in the locked, metal box. I just hope & pray county officials are honest; but, I guess “we shall see” come later tonight or ???? I am counting to hear good news later this evening! I feel confident the Red Wave will fly high tonight, & I pray Trump takes the WIN!

I pray DJT wins as well Patricia. So the head election lady couldn’t find the list, she eventually did and placed it in front of me. She tried to show me a letter from the Secretary of State saying to make a list of peoples names that wanted their ballot hand counted. I told her I don’t care who said to make the list I don’t want to be on it, it’s illegal to make a list of names period. The ridiculous thing was there was only my name and one other name of ballots that were put into the hand counted slot. Hard to figure out which one was mine, it’s the bottom one of the two. ?????? Unbelievable. The other thing is she didn’t ask my name or look at my license she went right to my name and scratched it off, again she knew who I was. I felt as though I was in a micro milgram experiment, would I just go along with the authorities? I just wanted to vote and go to work instead it turns into a real nerve racking pain.

I appreciate the fact you went back & asked to have your name removed from the list- My thought & question is, what were the intentions of the SOS? What was the election-head-lady told to do in the event a voter wanted their vote hand-counted? Then, you had a moment after your name was already on the list…I’m a curious cat!

I should have said no I not giving you my name from the start. The poll lady showed me a letter from the Secretary of State saying to get a list of people asking for hand counted ballots. She mentioned they may reach out to me and explain that there’s no need to hand count the ballots. I stopped her and said I don’t want to be reached out to. I don’t care who wants my name on the list I just don’t want to my name associated with my ballot on a list period. I want my privacy and my ballot to be secret as that’s how it is supposed to be ….. hope that explains it. She wasn’t exactly sure why they wanted a list she was somewhat guessing.
