I live on a budget closed loop. The Stimulus Handout was a big plus for ME! So since all the politicians running have money. How about a write in?
I am running on the campaign reform, zero campaign funds, balanced budget, bring our troops home; legalize marijuana, if it can kill you taxation to control it platform.
I promise that if elected I will turn the lights on to type. (wife is asleep) have to install Open Office to get things going.
Every voter should learn how to do a write-in vote. While not used very often in comparison to regular voting, it's a basic voting necessity. This year, make it a point to learn how to do one. Why this year? Because you don't need to, that's why, and therefore, that's the best time to learn. One of these years, you just may need to cast a write-in ballot. That's not the time to learn. You want to go in with confidence, not trepidation.
The write-in vote is used often in elections. You just don't see it because the newspapers don't usually give much space as to the results. You can actually vote for whomever you want when you write someone's name in. You certainly don't need their permission. And they'll never know who did it since a write-in vote is just as secret as voting the regular way. So, if you don't tell them, that person will never even know you did it. Some people even write in names of cartoon characters. As for myself, when I use it, I like to keep it professional. I pick an actual person who I think would do a good job and who could actually fill the position. (i.e. - somebody living and who resides in the area they would serve.)
