Voting

You might not know it from watching TV, but Americans also went to the polls on Tuesday to cast their votes on a myriad of issues not involving a certain residence on Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington. And some of those issues were a bit strange.

So you think you’re tired of the political ads? Try sitting in the studio all day. This election is the most expensive in the history of our country. Between the two candidates over $1.6 billion dollars has been spent, and if we don’t demand changes in the amount of money put into these it will only keep going up. I have a very simple plan that will fix this.

Today America settles the long battle for the White House between current President Barack Obama and former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney. The national polls are very tight, whereas state-by-state polling seems to suggest another four years for Obama.

Aaaaaaand the drama begins. This video footage was taken by a man trying to cast a vote for Barack Obama in Pennsylvania (an important swing state). We say "trying" because the machine doesn't make it particularly possible to actually vote for Obama -- every time the man tries, his vote is cast for Romney.
