It's election day today and... I have no idea what to vote for. *sighs* Well, I have one idea but I'm not happy with it. It might include striking out everyone but the #1 person. Damn, I wish we could vote for people instead of parties. Because even if I have a tiny bit of trust in a small number of candidates I don't trust a single one of the

I was just voting, and on the poster there, they said that if you strike out anybody, or check next to any name, it invalidates the vote, jsyk. (This was allowed last time though, right?

I hope that there won't be too many ppl who leave it blank, that´s basically giving the largest party your vote, and if everybody has been smoking crack, and vote XD, then we´re fucked.

Good luck deciding. I decided to go with Samfylkingin, mainly because I 110% trust Jóhanna, and I think she will lead the party much much better then Ingibjörg Sólrún did.

Seriously? WTF? That has ALWAYS been allowed! Christ. Are you sure it didn't say that you aren't allowed to strike out people on the lists you aren't voting for? Because I think that has been before.

I don't think we are in any danger of getting a right wing government this time around. They haven't been this unpopular in ages. And many of those that are saying they're gonna vote blank are the ones who used to vote D and are now too pissed off to do that. And that's saying alot because the XD vote often has been inbred for generations.

On that note, you might say voting for one of the small left parties is just as much giving the right wing your vote because on the whole it won't accomplish anything. It's sad really that the left wing has never managed to be as united as the right, if only so we had a better chance of overturning them.

Haha, I voted for Jóhanna when she was all "Minn tími mun koma!" I guess I was ahead of my time because guess what, it came. *g*

I think you misunderstood it.

You can only strike out people in the party you are voting for. If you strike out someone from another party the vote is vetoed.

Ah ok, I must have misread something, I thought it was weird! :P

No. it's you can only strike out people in the party you are voting.

Like if you Vote Samfylking you can only strike out people there, not like XD or whatever.

EDIT: I see it's been explained already. XD
