Dear Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles,
Today, I attempted to exercise my Constitutionally-granted right to vote in my local and state elections. Unfortunately for me, you are full of epic amounts of FAIL and IDIOCY. Surely, even you must understand that if you make available the option to update voter registrations when your customers renew or replace their motor vehicle licenses, that you should provide the necessary information to the State Board of Elections. This is not a difficult task, yet somehow you managed to fail. You not only failed to submit my information, but also my wife’s and, according to the gentleman running my local voting location, several other citizens. I suppose that this is what I get for assuming that you could do something again that you have not failed before, in my experience. I did not realize that I was dealing with a child who needs to be followed behind to ensure that you do your job!
I considered lodging a formal complaint, but I believe that there must be a sizable black hole at your disposal in which you cast voter registrations information. I have to infer that complaints end up in that very same black hole, so this mini-rant will need to suffice.
Good day.
Yours in emnity,
Bill Hedge, disgruntled citizen.
Either my Google-Fu is weak, or there is no readily available comparison (preferably, non-biased) on the candidates in this year’s Virginia gubernatorial race. I cannot believe that out of the billions of web pages floating around the Internet that such a page does not exist. I have no particular affiliation with any major political organization and I do not believe in voting a particular way because [insert random talking head here] says to do so. In the past, I have refused to look at the candidates individual web sites; neither would I look at their respective political party’s web site, nor anything distinctly promoting either candidate. What I really want is a compiled list of the candidates proclaimed stances on the major issues, such as education and transportation. Of course, one really cannot guarantee the non-bias of a given list of anything political in nature, so I suppose I need to suck it up and do my own research.
