Ah okay :-) It's not tan really I guess, I am sorta brownish in color :-) And the pics were taken by people who weren't really good at photography - so they wouldn't know which way they need to point and how to avoid the sun etc. :-) Dark-skinned people have this issue in photographs because they really need to get more lighting and also need a slower shutter speed to show well in the snaps.

I think it is because they need time to bring the voting machines to a central place where the counting is done. It is the time to setup things ready for the counting. Smitha Every problem has a gift for you in its hands. -- Richard Bach

...casting my vote for the Parliament election. My city fell under the constituencies belonging to the third phase of the elections. The counting is on Thursday and I am just too eager to know the results. The roads are just calm and quiet [and that is very unusual] as it is a public holiday here... Whatever the politicians do after they are elected, I feel I should vote in any case... it's my right and duty! Smitha Every problem has a gift for you in its hands. -- Richard Bach
I watched on the news this morning that voter turnout has been very poor this time around. Perhaps people are getting tired of politicians promises? Woke up this morning...and got myself a blog

Chris Maunder wrote: Then you've forfeited the right to complain about anything wrong with the way your government runs your city/state/country. Well it really depends. I believe that all elections should have a "none of the candidates" option. Sometimes all the candidates are so useless that you really find it hard to motivate yourself to go and vote. Chris Maunder wrote: Make the most of your vote - not everyone has the privelege. Huh? All citizens aged 18+ can vote, Chris. Is it different in other countries? :confused: Nish

In my state Kerala, there was an avg of 60% polling in the various constituencies. It is not that bad I guess, considering the polling percentages of previous years. Smitha Every problem has a gift for you in its hands. -- Richard Bach

My neighbor's kid is about 10, he's in public school. He can't vote, so should he not be able to complain about the sad state of public schools?
