This is a "blind ballot box" that was used by Hose Co. No. 3 for silent votes taken of the membership. Black and white marbles were kept in the open end. Dropping a white marble into the hole signified a supporting vote, while a black one signified a “no” vote.
Because in some cases a single black ball could determine a vote, having been voted down by a single dissenting vote came to be known as bring "blackballed." In many instances (including this specimen), the black marbles were replaced with black cubes so that a dirty white marble could not have been mistaken for a black one.
If you vote for Pedro, your wildest dreams will come true.
Here I am wearing a 'Vote for Pedro' shirt just like Napoleon wore in the classic, Napoleon Dynamite. Quite possibly the most brilliant movie ever made.
This shot was taken by a three year old pot of mouldy anchovy paste, which had developed into a rudimentary but sentient life-form. It informs me it will be voting Conservative in the 2010 UK election.
Update: The pot has been appointed secretary of state for agriculture and fisheries
County election officers and party observers spent several hours testing and certifying voting machines for the attorney general election recount.
Parliament has been promised a meaningful vote on the Brexit deal. But what, exactly, is Parliament being asked to decide? And what happens if Parliament votes the deal down?
At our panel discussion Raphael Hogarth, Research Associate at the Institute for Government, presented key findings from Voting on Brexit, the Institute for Government’s new paper on Parliament and the Brexit deal.
The paper sets out what the Government has to do in Parliament to get its deal though, and give effect to the withdrawal agreement in domestic law. It also identifies a number of risks to the timetable.
The vote, the politics and the constitutional implications was discussed by our panel:
The Rt Hon. Dominic Grieve QC MP, Conservative MP for Beaconsfield and former Attorney General
The Rt Hon. the Baroness Smith of Basildon, Shadow Leader of the House of Lords and Shadow Spokesperson (Northern Ireland)
George Parker, Political Editor, Financial Times
This event was chaired by Dr Hannah White, Director of Research at the Institute for Government.

A counter protester of AOC brings a sign that reads "My Favorite Big Booty Latina". The republicans and democrats face off at 10:30am when the event was scheduled to begin. The speakers delayed the event to 11am as the Secret Service work to mitigate fights through the crowd. Political powerhouse D-NY 14th District Representative Alexandria-Ocasio Cortez known as AOC rallied in UC Irvine on October 23, 2022 to campaign for higher voter turnouts as midterm elections deadline nears. She is the second high-profile Democrat to visit Irvine this month following Joe Biden on Oct 14. There was an estimate of 1,000 attendees and a few dozen counter-protesters at the Get Out the Vote Rally, according to an employee from UCI. Tensions heightened with counter protesters at the rally at 10:35pm when the event was scheduled to begin. The counter protesters disrupted the rally for two hours. Multiple fights were involved through the counter-protest crowd and were disbanded by the Secret Service multiple times. The event was hosted by The Sunrise Movement Orange County, the Orange County Young Democrats, Planned Parenthood Generation Action UC Irvine, the UC Student Workers Union, and College Democrats. Speakers included President of Young Dems Iris 'Nini' Wu as the opener, founder of the climate actions group OC Clean Power, Kathleen Treseder, former spokesperson for President Barack Obama and United States National Security Council from 2011-2012 Tommy Vietor, Council Member Costa Mesa D-5 Arlis Reynolds, and D-NY 14th Rep AOC.

7 is Yahua's number of perfection. 3 is this:
Throughout history we see that God loves numbers! He’s an architect and engineer; He made the universe! He loves to show off, show His glory, and make us marvel! Many numbers have very significant, God ordained meanings & implications. Note: “3 dots, 3 dashes, 3 dots” is man’s international distress signal, SOS in Morse Code. I’m convinced God orchestrated this, not Mr. Morse! - 333 is surely God’s international distress signal; an urgent end-times SOS message! Think! WHAT IF!! What if GOD is really trying to get your attention! Even if you don't believe in God, WHAT IF!! I would hope, if it were me, I would somehow respond. But, CAUTION! Whatever you do, do not place your trust in the purveyors of ANGEL NUMBERS & such! Although it's essentially true that the 333 may indeed be delivered by an angel, it would be an extreme injustice & mistake to associate it with the various spiritualist and profit oriented sites that pop up when "meaning of 333" is Googled. See "Satan's # Games". Unfortunately, although certainly more accurate, it's a shame one has to add "biblical" to "meaning of 333" for this site to be ranked high on the list by Google. Don't know whether to blame Satan or praise Google! It represents God, the 3-in-1, Father, Son, & Holy Spirit. Jesus prayed 3 times in the Garden of Gethsemane before His arrest. He was placed on the cross at the 3rd hour of the day (9 a.m.) and died at the 9th hour (3 p.m.). There were 3 hours of darkness that covered the land while Jesus was on the cross. Three is also the number of resurrection. Christ arose after 3 days and 3 nights in the tomb.
There are many more illustrations of the #3s biblical significance. Jonah prophetically spent 3 days in the belly of a big fish. After the flood, new life started in 3 persons: Shem, Ham, & Jepheth. Israel was founded in the 3 persons of Abraham, Isaac, & Jacob. Three (3) of the most memorable Biblical edifices, Noah's Ark, Solomon's Temple, and The Millennial Temple, are 3 stories tall; and they all represent God's saving grace. 33 = After 3 years of ministry and raising 3 people from the dead, Jesus died at age 33. His death and resurrection fulfilled all the old testament promises concerning the Messiah. Thus, the number 33 is connected to promise, in particular, to Gods promise of salvation to humanity. “3 dots, 3 dashes, 3 dots”, as noted above, is man’s international distress signal, SOS in Morse Code. I’m convinced God orchestrated this, not Mr. Morse! - 333 is surely God’s international distress signal; an urgent end-times SOS (Save Our Souls) message! On Nov.29,1947, the 333rd day of the year, the United Nations voted for the establishment of a Jewish State. God gave His chosen people the homeland that He had promised to their forefathers!
Genesis 15:9, The LORD told Abraham, "Bring me a three-year-old heifer, a three-year-old female goat, a three-year-old ram, a turtledove, and a young pigeon." This has to do with the covenant God made with Abraham, promising the land of Israel to the Jews. Thus 333 just may be considered a COVENANT number!!! As seen above, the numbers 3, 33, or 333 just scream of Jesus &/or the Bible! No other, not Mohammad, Buddha, Satan, or any other religion can proclaim such a connection. And again, 333 is surely God’s International Distress Signal; an urgent end-times SOS message! good link below
Flyers sent out around the Division of Swan for Labor candidate Hannah Beazley for the 2019 Federal Election - daughter of former Leader of the Opposition, US Ambassador and current WA Governor Kim Beazley.
Currently a marginal Liberal electorate held by Liberal Steve Irons Swan was held for labor by Kim Beazley between 1980 and 1996 before he moved to the Division of Brand in Perth's south which was a safer seat for Labor.
The Division of Swan was one of the original electorates at the First Australian Parliament in 1901 and at the time was one of only five electorates in Western Australia. Today it covers an area bounded by the Swan River, Canning River and Roe Highway to the east. A marginal electorate it has Liberal voting booths nearer the rivers and Labor voting ones closer to Perth Airport and Roe Highway.
