The time to lobby for allowing write-ins is probably long passed.

You weren’t denied the right to vote. You chose not to vote for any of the available candidates.

She is not a candidate. You must vote for a candidate

I don’t know what the laws are in Delaware. Write in votes have always been legal in Pennsylvania. I live in such a heavily Democrat county that often I have to write in because there is no Republican on the ballot for a lot of the local offices.

Write-ins weren’t permitted in Virginia either. We had a wonderful choice between Ron Paul and Mitt Romney. Many voted against Romney, and Paul garnered 40 percent of the votes.

No write-ins in primaries here. It’s not an election.

You were not denied the right to vote, you could have voted. There was no candidate you chose to vote for so you left.
What about all the other offices? Did you not vote on those?

nobody pays any attention to write ins anyway. Palin is not in the primary, so writing her in is a waste.

Not having write-ins is not the same as being denied the right to vote.
Many states dont have write in choices. It is a waste of ink anyway.

Sarah Palin is not on the ballot. How were you denied your right to vote?

I don’t know about Delaware, but here in Virginia, write-ins aren’t allowed in primaries. But hey——at least you can vote for Newt. Here, my only choices were the liberal abortionist homo lover, or the doddering nutcase!

When you vote in an actual election you will have a write-in available.

Primaries are not elections.

Send a donation to SarahPac and cross your fingers.

Sarah's in the race, fighting against establishment BS.

And that establishment, in both parties, needs to go.

Far worse we went to vote in the Virginia primary and they gave us a ballot with a loser and a crazy guy listed ~ no one else and no write-ins.

It's like the inmates have taken over and are tossing cr*p at everyone.

The fact is, primaries are also known as “party primaries.” Sadly, “the elite” wind up deciding that we have sufficient choice when we vote for either of their recommendations, Tweedle-Dee or Tweedle-Dum.

It ain’t gonna get any better until enough of us get involved to make a difference from the bottom (precinct level) up.

Something like that happened to me recently.

I was denied the right to Freedom of Religion!

I went to a Synagogue and asked to have my son baptized, AND THEY REFUSED! (I got a good deal on a circumcision though ...)

Is there a number I can call, or is there an app for that?

Vote for a real candidtae. Voting for Palin is like voting for Mickey Mouse at this point...it’s a wasted vote.

What does not allowing write-ins have do with getting a provisional ballot? A provisional ballot is only handed out to someone who doesn't appear on the voter rolls.

If you marked a paper ballot with a write-in, you have a spoiled ballot for that race. I don't know about the rules in Delaware, but in Texas one can spoil up to 2 paper ballots and still get a 3rd ballot as a replacement. The spoiled ballots have to be accounted for and are placed in a different box.
