No joke - I've seen kohler engines have a x-ref to a motorcraft filter.

ClutchDude

I swear - if atomic would make ncaa color matched filament, they would mint money. 

ClutchDude

Sorry, I thought i had commented under the other thread with this copy/paste.

How many voted at this point in 2022 and 2018?

ClutchDude

You should also disclose whether those are final or point in time equal.

ClutchDude

Your Travis County check in list link looks to be broken.

ClutchDude

Laptops use a ac/dc brick. 

Itll get warmer and be less efficient but its not going to ruin anything. 

ClutchDude

This draws about 8-9amps at max pull. 

Your alternator can produce 100+amps before it starts having to pull amps from the battery. 

As long as you don't use it excessively without the engine running, you'll be fine. 

ClutchDude

You must vote in the county you live in.

A person may vote only in the election precinct where the person lives. See Section 11.003 of the Texas Election Code.

/u/snaphunter had an excellent question and I've honestly just about given up any sort of "serious" moderation on mobile.

It's way too heavy weight compare to tools of the past(cough bacon reader cough).

I don't think leveraging AI for it is a good idea as I still need to cut and slice through the user engagements without feeling like I'm swimming through jello.

less is more in this case.

ClutchDude

It's serious with a poor attitude from my side.

OP has not mod mailed us with concerns or desires - from a quick check on their profile, they haven't commented on this in the past few days so this is the first time they are raising and doing so in a very critical manner.

The key points are we've done a few different thigns over the years and we know this:

  • standalone threads on waiting times are next to useless
  • People typically don't mind "go vote/i have a voting question" and you can see where we usually allow them.
  • No matter what we do, keeping the conversation/engagement going is a tough thing and not everyone will be happy with whatever process we choose.

Did we miss your mod-mail from several days ago where you brought this up?

This is also have we've done prior elections.

That's expected - you're essentially signing a form that certifies you reside and live at the address they show you in Texas. Otherwise, we need to have a different conversation about what you would have expected to see there. 

For mailing address though, it can be different.

ClutchDude

Just to confirm what the other person said, you need to go to the one on airport. Ridgepoint won't be able to do it.

7am-7pm, including tomorrow 

ClutchDude

Goddamnit, people are stupid. Call again and tell them and say "hey, I need to vote a limited ballot. Where do I go?" 

Edit: looked it up and confirmed that it is the airport blvd location during normal voting hours. 

ClutchDude

Your comment is still wrong. They can't ask for a limited ballot. They have to go to the Central County location, I believe it's on airport.

ClutchDude

Do not vote provisionally right now. The clerk, for some reason, hasn't gotten the proper training and should have referred you to a limited ballot.

ClutchDude

You vote a limited ballot at the county you within during early voting period.

If you do not live in the county you are registered, you cannot vote there.

ClutchDude

It's important to note this could only be done during early voting and at a central county location.

ClutchDude

It is very important you do not listen to just any other person right now. You can still vote a limited ballot during early voting. Do not vote provisionally right now.

Call the elections office and talk to them about it and they will guide you to the airport location and answer your questions.

Edit: Note this only applies if you are registered in the state of Texas and live in a county that you are not registered in.

ClutchDude

No! They can cast a limited ballot as long as it's early voting. A provisional ballot should not be done until Election Day.

You are thinking of when somebody doesn't have the proper forms of ID and does not have any reasonable impediment forms of ID.

If they vote provisionally in Travis County, their vote will likely not be counted as they are not registered in Travis County.

ClutchDude

After the election. Are you currently registered at all in Texas?

ClutchDude

When the content and discussion ceases to be productive. 

ClutchDude

Please do let the clerks/judge know if a machine is dirty/needs cleaning. They do try to do it as routine throughout the day but may forget.
