It works, but not much interest on here anymore. Reddit has taken over I think.

Wow! Has it really been a month since a new post or is something not working properly?

Yeah, I have heard there is going to be quite a bit of redevelopment in that area.  Have you seen any site plans?

Quote from: cynical on August 19, 2025, 03:50:26 PMUndervoting (leaving one of the races blank) doesn't spoil the ballot in Oklahoma. A "none of the above" option is not needed. Just vote for candidates you support. Don't vote twice in the same race. Don't make extraneous marks on the ballot. It'll count.


In the election I was referring to, I couldn't support any of the candidates in the Republican Primary.

NONE, NADA, ZIP.  For reasons I don't want to share here.

I have frequently "under voted" but submitting a completely blank ballot took some assistance from one of the poll workers.

Oklahoma doesn't have a None-of-the-Above choice on election ballots.   I just checked with the Tulsa County Election Board about putting a ballot in the machine with no selections.  Since a voter signs the register before getting a ballot, the voter will be credited with voting even if no selections are made on the ballot.  (Secret ballot).

While a None-of-the-Above option would make a louder voice, at least the voter can get credit for voting without having to select the least horrible candidate.

I expect that a letter writing campaign to the legislatures would meet with a dead-end.  Perhaps a voter initiative (or whatever it's called) could get None-of-the-Above options on the ballots.
