whomever wins these elections, we'll give them the benefit of doubt and we'll give them a chance to prove themselves as long as they give us more fresh bones and good food!

I'm on business in Italy during the election. I went through an application process to get the overseas ballots. They emailed the materials to me -- a few PDFs. Unfortunately the actual ballot looks like it's intended to be automatically machine scanned. That part's fine. But the stupid part is, the PDF is formatted for letter-size. Here, they only have A4. Printing original format on A4 doesn't fit. Reducing PDF format to fit A4 won't work with their automatic scanner.... go figure. ...and these are specifically for overseas ballots.

Beloozersky, Russia, 11/03/2007.
Two women selling drinks and snacks watch votes being cast in a polling station near Moscow. Many polling stations, especially in rural areas, continue the Soviet era tradition of selling cheap alcohol and food to encourage voters to come to the polls. Voters are taking part in regional government elections, which are being held in 14 of Russia's 86 regions.
Happy Election Day! At my polling place I was #60 for the A - Ks. The line wasn't out the door, but it was nearly to the door (about 15 people deep). At the time it was a gloomy morning, dark and rainy... This makes me wonder if turnout will actually be high today (for an off year election). I hope everyone gets a chance to exercise their constitutionally protected rights today.
I wanted to experience what it was like to be in an election headquarter during a presidential contest. Fortunately for me, the democratic election HQ in Los Angeles at was the Stadium Club at Dodgers Stadium, which is not far from where I work.
I have to say that the logistics of this event were poor. The Stadium Club is long, narrow and curved and it was jammed with television crews plus their cables, mixing boards and communication equipment. Moving about was cumbersome and slow. There were also at least a dozen different monitors on the wall, each seemingly with a different channel covering the election. Not one of them had the volume turned on or had the close captioning on. Instead, they played loud 80s dance music so that people had to shout to talk with each other. I would have had a better experience watching it all at a bar. It was a strange night.
This wide view was stitched from two separate images, and amazingly the stitch didn't distort anyone's body.
National Elections Commission polling staff prepare to distribute ballot boxes to polling centers around the country in Monrovia, Liberia, 09 October 2017. Liberians head to the polls on 10 October in the very first African nation to obtain independence in 1847. These elections hoped to be the first peaceful and democratic transfer of power from one democratically elected government to another who has to continue the countries rebuild following nearly two decades of brutal civil war.

The public awareness campaign for the forthcoming elections is continuing in Jalalabad in Nangarhar province and in the surrounding districts.
One man carrying out the huge awareness programme is Mohammad Gharanay, 54, one of the Civic Educators of the Independent Election Commission.
At one of his recent presentations he met more than 400 prisoners at Nangarhar prison.
“I am satisfied with my work because many of our people really need information on the election. On the other hand I meet different peoples with different political views which help me to better know our society,” said Mr Mohammad Gharany.
From colleagues Mr Gharanay receives much praise.
“He organized more than thirty public gatherings in the different parts of Jalalabad city, such as markets, governmental and non-governmental organizations’ offices, parks, a sports stadium and more,” said Ruhullah Mumand a Civic Educator Officer.
Sahil is one of the prisoners who participated at the prison outreach session.
“I was not sure that the Independent Election Commission will give a chance to prisoners to participate in the election but today’s programme assured us that we, like other Afghans, may participate in the presidential and provincial council elections,” said Mr Sahil.
“The members of parliament and provincial councils should have an advanced university degree and experience in social work with the community, so that they can perform their job successfully,” added Sahil.
A total of 100 civic educators organized into 50 groups, including female groups, are working in Nangarhar province.
There are eight groups in Jalalabad city and 42 groups in the 22 districts.
According to Abdullah Safar, the Administration and Finance Assistant for the Independent Election Commission in Nangarhar, the civic education process will take place in two steps – general information on the election (which is already going on) – and technical information on the voting process and casting ballot papers which is planned to be launched in the run up to the Election Day.
