Make All Votes Count Voting Tips

banner


My original post is shown below. In the meantime, here is the update.

Update: When I first wrote this blog, it was to help people make sure that their ballots would be counted. I gave tips to help make that happen.

Since that time, it seems that it is really time to make something happen to always ensure that the American people's votes all count. When the Electoral College first came about, it was supposed to help smaller states have as much voting power as larger states. That probably seemed like a good solution for the time. News did not travel quickly and candidates had to work harder to reach the voting public.

Since then, elections have almost become like a card game, where the candidates hone their strategies to win the 'game'.

It is time for more fair elections. It is time for no more gerrymandering, no more voting by districts period. It is time for all people's votes to count no matter the majority color of their state, red or blue. It is time for corporate American to not be involved with elections. Each American citizen's vote should count equally in the voting process.

The Electoral College is not longer needed, it's purpose is no longer needed. It is time to Make All Votes Count. It is time for the votes of the American people to decide who our president is to be.

If you want to help get this message out to more people, here is a link for Make All Votes Count business cards:




There will be another link coming with more, Make All Votes Count, message on other products too.

Here is the Original Post:

Here are some tips to help ensure that your vote, ballot will count.

1. For paper ballots, fill in the circle next to the candidate that you are voting for. Circling the candidates name disqualifies the ballot.

2. Only vote for the maximum number of candidates allowed, or less, for that section. Voting for more than the maximum number allowed for any section can disqualify the ballot.

3. Sign your ballot. Ballots without a signature are disqualified.

4. If hand delivering your ballot to your voting office, make sure that a postmark isn't required for your state. New York had disqualified ballots in the primary because they didn't have a postmark on them. This was however reversed and the ballots were counted. So just check things out up front to make the process easier from the start.

Any of the above reasons were why ballots were not counted in the Primary elections. So be sure to follow the instructions. If you know anyone who may not understand the instructions, please give them some guidance on the correct way of filling out their ballots, to help ensure that their ballots will be counted too.

I have made some business cards and posters with the basic tips on them, for ease of sharing this information. Please do share this blog and or the business cards and or posters to help more votes be counted in our election.

The basic tips are printed on the back of the business cards:




The posters are 8-1/2 by 11 inches and they can be ordered on smaller and or some larger sizes.



May your vote be counted.

Green Thumb Up Business Cards and Tshirts

I had wanted to make a thumb up symbol and when I got around to it, I decided to make it green. Since I love gardening and growing fresh herbs and veggies, I thought Yeah; it was such a natural fit. The green thumb does represent gardeners.

Although I chose to make this painting about gardening, the green thumb can also simply represent yes. The choice is yours.

If you do have a green thumb type gardening business or are making one, here are some business cards and tshirts to help get you started.


The design is also on the front of the tshirt, and the additional contact info is on the back.


Template forms are provided on both items for you to easily personalize the items for your business, etc.

Thank you for shopping CherylsArt on Zazzle.

Okay, Ok tshirts and more

I had told my daughter that I was going to make a new hand design, one with the symbol for okay.

She told me that the hand symbol for okay had other meanings to it that weren't necessarily so good.

So I did some research on it and found that yes, the symbol was being used for other meanings, but I also noticed that the direction of the hand was different for these so called other meanings.

I decided that okay means okay. And to clear up any confusion with the original intent, I added the word, ok, spelled with two letters, on the hand painting; so if there was any doubt or wondering, the person or persons could also just read the letters.

It is time for okay, or ok, to mean okay.

By the way, I used my own hand print to make this positive affirmation design.

This hand print design is ready for purchase on tshirts at my CherylsArt store on Zazzle.com.

When on Zazzle, you can also transfer this design onto other products; I will also be adding it to more products myself, on Zazzle.


You can also purchase this ok hand design on products that are printed by 3dRose. 3dRose products can currently be found on their 3dRose site as well as Amazon, Walmart, and Wayfair, that I know of. To locate this design on the actual 3dRose site, go to 3dRose, click on the type of product that you would like the design on - found in the left hand column, then on the next menu - scroll down to CherylsArt Hands. Click on the item of your choice.

Info for the Baby Sitter Dry Erase Sheets

These dry erase boards can serve as a convenient way to provide information for your baby sitter. You can fill write in any information that will change from time to time. You can customize it with any information that will remain constant by typing text, such as your cell phone number.

There can be so much to think about when the new baby arrives, and one helpful thing is to have a ready to fill in form for the baby sitter. I remembered back to the days when I was a new mom, and these are the kinds of things that I thought would be important for the baby sitter to know. A sturdy form with info that remained the same, would have been very helpful.

This form is printed on a magnetic sheet, which makes them easy to place on the refrigerator. The form can be easily customized with the information that is pertinent to you, or you can go with what I have already filled in.



I filled in a line for the names, for who the baby sitter is baby sitting for. If the baby sitter is concerned about something and needs to call the parents, it can be helpful for them to easily refer to the name that is printed on the dry erase sheet.

There is also a spot for a backup number, should the baby sitter not be able to reach the parents or care givers.

There are also extra lines for additional things that may not need to be listed every time, but something you want to mention for a specific date, i.e. no food after a certain hour, in bed by a certain time, etc.

So feel free to customize to make this work for you. They also make great baby shower gifts for the new parents.

If you are more a free style thinker, this lined form will give you more flexibility in what you want to write. This design is shown on an actual dry erase board; you can choose the backing on it, whether it be magnetic strips, adhesive, or no backing.

This list can also be used to write down when medications are to be given and the times, special feedings, etc.

Art on Products: A Word Fitly Spoken, magnets, etc.

My thought:

One of the most important verses in the Bible, Proverbs 25:11, says, "A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver."

That means to speak with kindness. What we say and how we say it has great impact, so it's always best to be kind. And that includes how we talk to ourselves! Do you agree? Leave a comment below in the comment section.

I like associating affirmations with pictures; so I created the apple of gold on a background of silver image, to go along with this verse. I like skimming down my poster of images with a short one or two word text below each one. It's a quick and easy way to reinforce affirmations.

I also place affirmation magnets on my fridge. I like checking those out as well. You'll find the word fitly spoken verse on a variety of products below to help make your affirmation life easier.

Magnets:

A convenient reminder are refrigerator magnets. Just place one at or near eye level on your fridge for an easy daily reminder.



Keychains:

It can be nice to carry along an extra reminder. A keychain with this enlightening verse on it, provides a convenient and easy way to read these words whenever you're out and about and grab for your keys.




These keychains come in a choice of styles and sizes.

Postcards with two bookmarks:

If you would like to share this verse with multiple friends and relatives, these postcards are a convenient way to share. The front side of the postcard features two bookmarks that can be cut apart.




Tote bags:

Tote bags are great to use when going shopping, and or to carry papers and or books. A reusable tote bag also offers others a fun way to read the affirmation too.



Benefits:

Having an image to associate with an affirmation is an easy way to help remember the affirmation. Over time, just by seeing the image, the verse can automatically come to mind. I have been using and reading affirmations that I have associated with pictures over quite a few years. I find that it's an easier way to recall, remember, and use them. It can also help me have added positive feelings when I'm seeing the image too.

Add the benefit of images to your affirmation life to see if they work for you. They can also make great gift items.

You can find more Proverbs designs on magnets, mugs, and more at CherylsArt on Zazzle.

Thank you; and sending loving blessings to you.
