  - There are two Peyton Lists. -- (link) - Reagen Aug 24, 14:42 2

Poll: would you support a legal change allowing parents/guardians to cast proxy votes in elections for their dependents? - Max Aug 24, 14:14 16
- They used to require students vote in their parents precinct, then they made it very difficult for them to register, impossible to vote... -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 24, 17:58
- step 1 - have parent/guardian committed. step 2 - cast their vote for them! -- nm - Roger More Aug 24, 14:41
- No. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 24, 14:40
- only male land owners aged 35 - 65 should be allowed to vote. -- nm - Jovian Aug 24, 14:39
- No, it gives an unfair advantage to Catholics and Quiverfull weirdos. -- nm - mara Aug 24, 14:30

- No. Why should anyone vote by proxy? I have zero issue with lowering the age to 16, but they'd have to register and vote just like everyone else. -- nm - TWuG Aug 24, 14:17 3
  - Also, voters should be able to have an understanding on some level of what is being voted on. - TWuG Aug 24, 14:22 2
    - A voter test eh? I think we tried that once. -- nm - Qale Aug 24, 14:25 1
      - Not a test. Just a basic belief that everyone 16 and over is, at least theoretically, capable of making informed choices. - TWuG Aug 24, 14:28
- No. But I would be in favor of lowering voting age to 16. -- nm - Qale Aug 24, 14:17
- No chance. -- nm - Krusty Aug 24, 14:16
- no. that would be open to more fraud than even the GOP can currently pull off -- nm - Beaker Aug 24, 14:15
Hah -- (link) - Beryllium Aug 24, 14:13
Homeland is leaving Netflix in September - I wonder where it's going -- nm - Beryllium Aug 24, 14:09 6
- Season 1 was some of my favorite TV I have ever watched. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 24, 15:24
- Looks like it's 20th Century Fox TV which, arguably, means Hulu/Disney+. But Netflix could just cut a check the following month. -- nm - Mop Aug 24, 14:12 3
  - September? Why would anyone think of homeland security then? -- nm - con_carne Aug 24, 14:14
  - pretty sure it is on D+ up here already -- nm - Beaker Aug 24, 14:14 1
    - Yes, same. It's on Hulu here. Similar to Criminal Minds on Netflix and Paramount+. What's the deal with Mandy Patinkin shows? -- nm - Mop Aug 24, 14:59
- Rendition, and it's a secret. -- nm - Max Aug 24, 14:09
Hey, guess what! "women are out-registering men by significant margins in states where reproductive rights are in danger of being repealed" -- (link) - David Aug 24, 14:09 3
- “There have been four first-past-the-post special House elections since [Dobbs], and Democrats have outperformed their expected margins in those by an average of 9 points.” -- (link*) - znufrii Aug 24, 14:43
- I'm betting current polling models are maybe not reflecting that just yet. - TWuG Aug 24, 14:16 1
  - Yeah. I hope their "victory" ends up being their irrecoverable downfall. - Beryllium Aug 24, 14:30

    - Yeah. Of course, I said it because of the show, but I thought there were other ways you could take it to. -- nm - Dano Aug 24, 14:51
- ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -- nm - TWuG Aug 24, 14:20
- How U Doin -- nm - Krusty Aug 24, 14:19
- I like HIGHSTRUNG an awful lot but my sister is like "that's two words..." -- nm - amanda Aug 24, 14:17 1
  - I'M F.I.N.E. -- nm - Max Aug 24, 14:51
- IB&T is ten characters if you have bean embroider, but bean no longer does swear words or brands so most people are going local for embroidery. - amanda Aug 24, 14:16 2
  - SAVEFERRIS -- nm - rollo Aug 24, 14:30
  - I thought your suggestion of As You Wish was capital, but with spaces, that is 11. A local shop may be the way to go -- nm - crash davis Aug 24, 14:30
